Improve ROI with Fast Assessment of Decarboxylation Status in Cannabis and Hemp Extracts
Improve ROI with Fast Assessment of Decarboxylation Status in Cannabis and Hemp Extracts Webinar summary2 Introduction Extraction is one of the most important processes in the entire cannabis production chain, perhaps second only to cultivation itself. There are three main types of extraction that are generally used by today’s extraction operations: hydrocarbon extraction, alcohol or ethanol extraction, and supercritical CO 2 extraction. In combination with extraction, extractors are also generally responsible for carrying out other post-processing steps that are required for these extracts. Decarboxylation is one of these post-processing steps and is an important part of preparing these extracts for consumption. Cannabis plants naturally produce the cannabinoids tetrahydrocann
