There is an explosion in the number of [[Laboratory|labs]] analyzing [[wikipedia:Cannabinoid|cannabinoids]] in marijuana ([[wikipedia:Cannabis|''Cannabis sativa'' L.]], Cannabaceae); however, existing methods are inefficient, require expert analysts, and use large volumes of potentially environmentally damaging [[wikipedia:Solvent|solvents]]. The objective of this work was to develop and validate an accurate method for analyzing cannabinoids in cannabis raw materials and finished products that is more efficient and uses fewer toxic solvents. A method using [[high-performance liquid chromatography]] (HPLC) with [[Chromatography detector|diode-array detection]] (DAD) was developed for eight cannabinoids in ''Cannabis'' flowers and oils using a statistically guided optimization plan based on the principles of green chemistry. A single-laboratory validation determined the linearity, selectivity, accuracy, repeatability, intermediate precision, limit of detection, and limit of quantitation of the method. Amounts of individual cannabinoids above the limit of quantitation in the flowers ranged from 0.02 to 14.9% concentration (w/w), with repeatability ranging from 0.78 to 10.08% relative standard deviation.

"Why do we need food systems informatics? Introduction to this special collection on smart and connected regional food systems"

Public interest in where food comes from and how it is produced, processed, and distributed has increased over the last few decades, with even greater focus emerging during the COVID-19 pandemic. Mounting evidence and experience point to disturbing weaknesses in our food systems’ abilities to support human livelihoods and wellbeing, and alarming long-term trends regarding both the environmental footprint of food systems and mounting vulnerabilities to shocks and stressors. How can we tackle the “wicked problems” embedded in a food system? More specifically, how can convergent research programs be designed and resulting knowledge implemented to increase inclusion, sustainability, and resilience within these complex systems ...
