Under current legislation in Italy, using the ''[[wikipedia:Cannabis|Cannabis]]'' plant for medical purposes requires administering it orally in the form of a decoction or as ''Cannabis'' oil extract. The scientific literature reports a number of preparation methods, mainly for oils, but no study is available that compares thoroughly, from a technological viewpoint, the ''Cannabis''-based formulations currently administered to patients. With this in mind, this research work aimed to carry out specific formulation studies to design standard operating procedures for the preparation and optimization of ''Cannabis''-based galenic formulations. Both decoctions and oils were prepared under different operating conditions to identify the most efficient process for the production of formulations with a high concentration of [[wikipedia:Decarboxylation|decarboxylated]] [[wikipedia:Tetrahydrocannabinol|delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol]] (THC) and [[wikipedia:Cannabidiol|cannabidiol]] (CBD). Regarding ''Cannabis'' oil, a new procedure has been developed that allows significantly higher recovery rates for THC and CBD compared with those for water-based extraction methods (decoction) and those for oil-based methods currently in use.

"Elegancy: Digitizing the wisdom from laboratories to the cloud with free no-code platform"

One of the top priorities in any laboratory is archiving experimental data in the most secure, efficient, and errorless way. It is especially important to those in chemical and biological research, for it is more likely to damage experiment records. In addition, the transmission of experiment results from paper to electronic devices is time-consuming and redundant. Therefore, we introduce an open-source no-code electronic laboratory notebook (ELN), Elegancy, a cloud-based/standalone web service distributed as a Docker image. Elegancy fits all laboratories but is specially equipped with several features benefitting biochemical laboratories. It can be accessed via various web browsers, allowing researchers to upload photos or audio recordings directly from their mobile devices. Elegancy also contains a meeting arrangement module, audit/revision control, and laboratory supply management system. We believe Elegancy could help the scientific research community gather evidence, share information, reorganize knowledge, and digitize laboratory works with greater ease and security ...
