Summary:Cannabis laboratory safety testing is a new investment opportunity within the emerging cannabis market that is distinct from cultivation, processing, distribution, and retail. It is supported in every U.S. state to date that permits consumption by legislative requirements that medical and recreational/adult-use cannabis undergo laboratory testing. This is facilitating a new route of entry into the cannabis value chain for individuals and organizations who may have been reluctant to participate previously. Cannabis Laboratory Fundamentals provides an in-depth review of key issues that impact cannabis testing laboratories and provides recommendations and solutions to avoid common but costly mistakes. While methodology chapters about common compliance tests are included, it goes beyond with chapters on economics, regulation, and numerous operational challenges. This text is useful for both new and experienced cannabis laboratory operators, as well as those who want to understand the opportunities and risks of this industry sector.

Description
Summary:

The legislative requirement for cannabis to undergo laboratory testing has followed legalization of medical and recreational use in every U.S. state to date. Cannabis safety testing is a new investment opportunity within the emerging cannabis market that is separate from cultivation, processing, and distribution, allowing individuals and organizations who may have been reluctant to enter previously a new entry route to the cannabis space. However, many of the costs, timelines, operational requirements, and compliance issues are overlooked by people who have not been exposed to regulated laboratory testing.

Cannabis Laboratory Fundamentals provides an in-depth review of the key issues that impact cannabis testing laboratories and provides recommendations and solutions to avoid common - but expensive - mistakes. The text goes beyond methodology to include sections on economics, regulation, and operational challenges, making it useful for both new and experienced cannabislaboratory operators, as well as all those who want to understand the opportunities and risks of this industry.
