LOS ALTOS, Calif., Dec. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Sage Analytics (www.sageanalytics.com), the developers of a new generation of equipment for the testing of marijuana potency and moisture content, announced today the release of the new Luminary™ Profiler, the industry's first product suite capable of delivering highly accurate light-based measurement in a cost-effective, portable unit.
Designed from the ground up to meet the specific needs of the cannabis industry, the Luminary™ Profiler utilizes specially purposed spectroscopy analysis. Spectroscopy has long been lauded as one of the best measurement techniques in the world.
Commonly used by major testing facilities and pharmaceutical laboratories, spectroscopy produces a superior test result, but until now the technology has been too expensive and complicated for use in the cannabis market.
"We have taken our 15 years of experience developing world-class testing solutions for the pharmaceutical industry, and have created a first-of-its-kind device," said Chad Lieber, PhD, Chief Scientist and Co-Founder of Sage Analytics. "Virtually everyone involved with cannabis will benefit from fast and accurate potency testing, including growers, dispensaries, manufacturers of infused products, regulators, and of course, consumers and medical marijuana patients."
The Luminary™ Profiler provides instant, accurate and affordable measurements of THC, CBD and CBN, which can be read on-site by any operator, at any time during the cannabis life-cycle.
The system has multiple benefits for everyone in the cannabis eco-system:
Growers can optimize harvest, with zero wait times for potency testing and no destruction of samples.
Laboratories can increase their throughput without the need of highly trained personnel.
MIP producers of edibles and infused goods can produce more consistent products and provide accurate potency, ingredient and serving size information.
Dispensary operators can provide their customers with instant analysis on any strain, enhancing consumer confidence.
Government regulators can test cannabis anywhere, anytime, with a system that is as accurate and reliable as traditional GC and HPLC techniques, but with results in a fraction of the time and cost.
The new Luminary™ Profiler is a breakthrough for the cannabis industry, and can help solve many of the problems and challenges facing this rapidly emerging market.
