There is a lot of controversy regarding cannabis and whether it should be legalized or not.  There are some states in the US have already made it legal.  Perhaps it maybe for medicinal use, or for recreation; but the debate still rages.  With increasing acceptance by some states and the population, it only stands to reason that some sort of testing will be mandated at some point.  In fact, there are several states already demanding a reliable and repetitive test that can be used to make sure the product is safe and credible.

Green Button Go

While this may sound like a version of a children’s rhyme, it is actually a type of automated scheduling software.  Green Button Go integrates with scientific instrumentation or with other automated manufacturing equipment to run non-stop without human intervention.  It thereby increases output, takes less time, with data that is recordkeeping in quality and structure.

The GBG batch planner is part of the automation process that gives data, such as instrument availability and manages timing conflicts between the batches to be tested. Multiple operators can schedule experiments, using a real-time plot, and even increasing the workload in the work cells in use.

Why is this Important

Cannabis grows in many different types.  From flowers, to beverages, to lotions, to oils, there are many opportunities for unscrupulous sellers to use potentially harmful substances instead of the approved plant.

There is also the law enforcement perspective that while the laws are changing, it is sometimes difficult to tell what cannabis, or a look alike plant is people have in their possession. 

This is where Green button go is invaluable, since it is a quick add on software application which can be downloaded or attached to equipment already in use.  Testing of substances needs to be done quickly, and there is no need to wait for budgets to be available to buy new use specific equipment.

The usual turnaround time for testing samples of substance is normally three to five days.  Automation with the GBG batch planner and the Green button go has expedited testing and decreased the cost and backlog of samples which need testing. The Green Button Go software has reduced the time it takes to prepare samples by greater than 93%.  When time is of the essence, this software is impressive.

The need for reliable and accurate cannabis testing is a problem which faces many entities today.  With the popularity and legalization of the substance, the need is only going to get worse as time goes by.  The plus to this problem is that the answer to the problem is closer than people may realize.

Also, the application or principle of this software can be expanded to include other substance including genetic markers for diseases such as cancer.  While the two are totally different subjects, the potential for life changing technology is there, and can be built upon to change the lives and health of untold numbers of people.
