Testing Cannabis and Hemp for Pesticides and HerbicidesCannabis and Hemp, in recent years, has acquired the status of an important and growing industry for a number of applications. As with all development of this nature, keeping up with emerging regulations has created an analytical challenge for chemists having to ensure product on the market is safe, high-quality and consistent. This webinar will look how to address some of the common set up issues associated with the analysis of pesticides and herbicides in cannabis and also identify the approaches to overcome these challenges. It will investigate the issue of sample preparation and how to ensure that matrix effects are kept to a minimum. The webinar will then move into the different approaches that can be employed to analyse for a range of pesticides that are required to be quantified.

He has worked in both manufacturing and also industry, having periods of employment at LGC and also AstraZeneca as well as ThermoFisherScientific and latterly Agilent Technologies. In 2008, he was fortunate enough to be awarded the Desty memorial lecture for his contributions to innovating separation science, and in the same year also won a clinical excellence award from AstraZeneca. Tony’s current interests are centered on improving the extraction process and high-temperature chromatography. Tony was awarded an honorary fellowship at the Liverpool university, where he lectures on separation science, and also lectures at Keele University on Management in Analytical Science. Tony is also the President of The Chromatographic Society in the UK and a contributing editor for the Chromatography Today magazine. Tony is also part of the Reid Bioanalytical conference organising committee, and a permanent member of the scientific committee for the International Symposium on Chromatography. |
