Description:
This project will develop a new detection platform technology for real-time cannabis analysis. It will offer world-wide cannabis users and growers significant data analysis within minutes. This technology will use state-of-the-art solid-state nanotechnology with microfluidics to offer accurate quantitative results. Keystone Labs and the Serpe group at the University of Alberta have the required experience and expertise for the development of KEY-CHIP. The funding will be used to take the project from the prototype stage, production of device, beta testing to manufacturing and commercialization. The first analysis target will be to detect Cannabinoids; Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and Cannabidiol (CBD) in real-time.
