CannabisNewsBreaks – EVIO, Inc. (EVIO) Set to Profit from Shortage of Testing Services as California’s Mandatory Cannabis Testing Deadline Approaches

March 16, 2018 11:56:17

EVIO, Inc. (OTCQB: EVIO), a life sciences and cannabis testing company, has set up in California to address the supply shortfall in cannabis testing services. An article discussing the company reads: “California, befitting its history as part of America’s westward expansion, has earned an appellation as the ‘Wild West’ of pot. Medical marijuana, legal in the state since 1996, has been largely bypassed by quality control and safety regulations. That is about to change. To coincide with the opening of the adult recreational market, a plethora of rules and rubrics has been issued. California MMJ businesses will have until July 2018 to ensure compliance. As a result, demand for cannabis testing services in California is set to increase rapidly, a development that means EVIO, Inc. (OTCQB: EVIO), which has acquired testing facilities in Berkeley, California, is in the right place at the right time.”

CannabisNewsBreaks – Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) Reports Positive Results from Skin Absorption Study

March 13, 2018 10:12:34

Lexaria Bioscience (CSE: LXX) (OTCQB: LXRP) this morning said that it has completed the first study evaluating DehydraTECH™ used in a topical cream formulation for absorption of cannabidiol (“CBD”) through human skin. Compared to control formulations, significant increases in the speed and quantity of CBD absorption through skin were proven in the study. Several factors were measured during the study at multiple testing intervals over a 48-hour duration, including the time required to detect CBD skin penetration and quantity as well as the peak amounts of CBD absorbed.  Lexaria’s DehydraTECH-enabled topical formulation without the addition of either of the commercial penetration enhancers, demonstrated the highest overall average quantity of CBD delivered through the skin. Based on the positive results of the study, Lexaria intends to begin discussing potential additional commercial applications for its DehydraTECH technology with interested third parties from the topical products sector. “This first round of testing was very encouraging and showed clear benefits with regards to speed of action and, particularly, delivery of CBD across the skin barrier for potential transdermal applications where delivery into the human circulatory system is required,” Lexaria Bioscience president John Docherty stated in the news release.

PreveCeutical Medical Inc. (CSE: PREV) (OTCQB: PRVCF) (FSE: 18H) Linker Tech Mimics Body’s Production of Pain Relieving Peptides

March 12, 2018 15:21:44
  • Developing pain relievers that mimic body’s natural pain relief peptides
  • Other programs include development of treatments for diabetes, synthetization of blue scorpion venom and study of a novel cannabinoid delivery platform
  • Revenues from international licensing strategy

The discovery of endomorphins in 1997 was a remarkable reminder of the human body’s wondrous nature. Endomorphins are naturally produced morphine-like substances with an affinity for the µ-opioid receptors in the brain, which fortunately happen to be the best places to alleviate pain. With a potency that far exceeds morphine, these endogenous substances are the body’s first line of defense against pain and stress. Since their discovery, efforts to replicate them in the lab have been underway, and a number of those initiatives are now bearing fruit in R&D establishments. A signal example is the biotechnology developed by Dr. Harry Parekh, which provides a drug development platform for PreveCeutical Medical Inc. (CSE: PREV) (OTCQB: PRVCF) (FSE: 18H). Using it, the health sciences company plans to develop endomorphin analogs which, unlike opioids, aren’t addictive and don’t trigger the respiratory depression that all too often causes fatal overdosing.

The development of this new class of pain relieving drugs could usher in an era of more temperate painkillers. Opioids are effective in reducing pain, but their use is blighted by possibilities of sinister side effects. Since they delay the functioning of the body’s respiratory apparatus, the peril of fatal overdose is ever-present. In addition, their efficacy diminishes over time as the body develops…

Pressure BioSciences’ (PBIO) Patented Tech Enhances Nanoemulsion Bioavailability and Extends Product Shelf Life

March 12, 2018 10:56:42
  • Patented UST process produces highly stable, clean and cost-effective nanoemulsions
  • Technology can be applied across many industries, including pharmaceutical, food, nutraceutical, industrial lubricant, paint and cosmetic sectors
  • UST technology aligns with consumer demand for chemical- and preservative-free products

The demand for nanoemulsions is growing at a fast pace, with potential applications in many industry sectors, including food, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics and industrial lubricants. Up to now, one of the major problems with nanoemulsions has been their instability. This instability compromises the bioavailability and absorption of active ingredients for product preparation and the shelf life of the product. Life sciences company Pressure BioSciences Inc. (OTCQB: PBIO) is positioned to change this landscape via a patented novel technique called Ultra Shear Technology (“UST”). This technology uses intense shear forces generated by high-pressure valve discharge, which can help produce nanoemulsions that exhibit significantly improved absorption, greater stability and increased bioavailability compared to traditional micro and macro-emulsions.

Emulsions are mixtures of two liquids which are largely immiscible without the aid of emulsifying chemicals, such as surfactants. Surfactants assist in the dispersion of one liquid within the other, where it exists as tiny droplets. The smaller the droplet size for any given volume of dispersed liquid, the greater the absorption and bioavailability of…

CannabisNewsAudio – Choom Holdings Inc. (CSE: CHOO) (OTCQB: CHOOF) Remains Solid in the Ever-changing Cannabis Industry

March 9, 2018 16:26:54

Related Editorial
The Canadian cannabis industry is pliable, changing shape amid mounting public support, favorable legislative action, an influx in capital, and the integration of alcohol and tobacco. For years, this massive industry was entirely illegal; its potential unavailable to legitimate investors. As Canada heads toward legalizing recreational cannabis later this year, however, the continuous sculpting of the industry provides investors a wealth of consumer-driven investment opportunities. Choom Holdings, Inc. (CSE: CHOO) (OTCQB: CHOOF) (CHOOF Profile) is targeting the recreational user via its own brand of high-grade handcrafted cannabis. Cannabis lifestyle brand Hiku Brands Co. Ltd. (CSE: HIKU) (OTC: DJACF) (DJACF Profile) recently received a $10 million equity investment from Aphria, Inc. (TSX: APH) (OTC: APHQF), denoting high expectations for recreational cannabis. Canopy Growth Corp.’s (TSX: WEED) (OTC: TWMJF) recent investment from a big alcohol brand reveals a glimpse of how separate sectors of recreational consumables are interwoven. This strategic blending means big business for cultivators such as ABcann Global (TSX.V: ABCN) (OTCQB: ABCCF) (ABCCF Profile), a recognizable licensed producer and seller of pharmaceutical-grade cannabis products.

An article discussing the company’s proprietary technology reads: “PreveCeutical’s proprietary Sol-gel formulations begin as a liquid that is administrated into the nose, which then forms a gel as it is warmed in the nasal cavity where it can then be absorbed. This effectively bypasses the stomach and intestines – eliminating first pass metabolism – and may dramatically improve bioavailability, even compared to nasal sprays and newer delivery systems. This nose-to-brain delivery method offers numerous benefits, including fewer side effects and avoidance of unwanted rapid metabolism.”

CannabisNewsBreaks – Lexaria Bioscience Corp.’s (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) Innovative Technology is Well-suited in the Cannabis Industry

March 8, 2018 15:55:00

Lexaria Bioscience (CSE: LXX) (OTCQB: LXRP) has recently developed an oral digestion technology, DehydraTECH™, which is a complementary layer that works with other R&D efforts regarding cannaboids. An article discussing the company reads: “DehydraTECH allows for faster delivery time, lower dosages and shorter treatment regimens. Oral ingestion of the client drug eliminates unhealthy practices of inhalation dosing. It improves the absorption rate, by as much as five to 10 times, of non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), vitamins, cannabinoids and even nicotine. Delivery time, the time it takes from ingestion to payload molecules reaching the bloodstream, is reduced from the 60-90 minutes of current methods to a mere 15-25 minutes. High concentrations of unhealthy sugars or sweeteners are no longer needed to mask the bitter taste, and side effects are reduced, improving the bioavailability of its client drug. This provides an opportunity for new and innovative methods of oral delivery.”

About Lexaria Bioscience Corp.

Lexaria Bioscience Corp. has developed and out-licenses its disruptive delivery technology that promotes healthier ingestion methods, lower overall dosing and higher effectiveness of lipophilic active molecules. Lexaria has multiple patents pending in over 40 countries around the world and was granted its first patents in the USA and in Australia related to edible forms of cannabinoids. Lexaria’s technology provides increases in intestinal absorption rates; more rapid delivery to the bloodstream; and important taste-masking benefits, for orally administered bioactive molecules including cannabinoids, vitamins, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), nicotine and other molecules.

Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (REFG) in Marathon Drive to Serve Marijuana Customers with Unique Platform

March 7, 2018 15:58:30
  • ‘Green’ payment system offers security and regulatory transparency
  • Expanding legalization efforts mean more opportunity in market that’s expected to exceed $31 billion within the next three years
  • Company working out cryptocurrency alternative to U.S. dollar financing

In late February, a federal judge issued the latest legal finding on the drive to overturn the U.S. government’s classification of marijuana as an illegal drug, delivering a ruling that rejected medical marijuana patients’ claims that the ban is an unconstitutional violation of their rights (http://cnw.fm/DaqG1). The decision, based on a procedural finding that the plaintiffs had not gone through proper procedures with the Drug Enforcement Administration to challenge the ban and likely could not establish a constitutional right to use marijuana, further maintained the legal status quo of the cannabis plant, even as spreading drug availability under states’ rights movements continues to waft throughout the United States. Marijuana industry payment processing solution company Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (OTC: REFG), whose CEO resides in Utah where similar measures are being debated, promotes the financing of cannabis industry transactions in state-legal locations and is optimistic about patient access possibilities elsewhere (http://cnw.fm/G0r4L).

“Investors and patients need not panic or worry.

Pliability of Canadian Cannabis Industry Triggers New Business Development

March 7, 2018 09:00:28

CannabisNewsWire Editorial Coverage: The Canadian cannabis industry is pliable, changing shape amid mounting public support, favorable legislative action, an influx in capital, and the integration of alcohol and tobacco. For years, this massive industry was entirely illegal; its potential unavailable to legitimate investors. As Canada heads toward legalizing recreational cannabis later this year, however, the continuous sculpting of the industry provides investors a wealth of consumer-driven investment opportunities. Choom Holdings, Inc. (CSE: CHOO) (OTCQB: CHOOF) (CHOOF Profile) is targeting the recreational user via its own brand of high-grade handcrafted cannabis. Cannabis lifestyle brand Hiku Brands Co. Ltd. (CSE: HIKU) (OTC: DJACF) (DJACF Profile) recently received a $10 million equity investment from Aphria, Inc. (TSX: APH) (OTC: APHQF), denoting high expectations for recreational cannabis. Canopy Growth Corp.’s (TSX: WEED) (OTC: TWMJF) recent investment from a big alcohol brand reveals a glimpse of how separate sectors of recreational consumables are interwoven. This strategic blending means big business for cultivators such as ABcann Global (TSX.V: ABCN) (OTCQB: ABCCF) (ABCCF Profile), a recognizable licensed producer and seller of pharmaceutical-grade cannabis products.

Canada Heads for New Highs

An estimated 5 million Canadians already smoke cannabis once a month, with another 900,000 expected to join them after legalization. In 2015, the country was already spending nearly as much money on cannabis as on wine, indicating the huge business potential of…

CannabisNewsBreaks – The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. Continues Large Scale Cannabis Production as Supply Deficit Approaches

March 6, 2018 15:45:10

Ultra-low cost organic cannabis producer The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd., also known as TGOD, is set to reap the benefits from an impending shortage of cannabis in Canada. An article discussing the company reads: “As one of just two producers of organic cannabis and with a million square feet of low cost production planned, the Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (“TGOD”) is set to capitalize on Canada’s looming supply shortfall. The company is growing its competitive advantage in a way that appears to run contrary to established dictum by focusing not just on differentiation but also on cost leadership. Typical generic strategies are either one or the other. This unique approach is winning friends and influencing people. TGOD has, to date, closed $112 million in private placements, which includes $55 million from marijuana industry powerhouse Aurora Cannabis Inc. (OTCQX: ACBFF) (TSX: ACB). As Canada draws closer to legalization of the consumer market, TGOD is looking good. The company’s highly anticipated IPO is planned for March 2018.”

Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (REFG) Sidesteps Bottlenecking of Cash Transactions through Innovative Platform

March 6, 2018 15:30:39
  • REFG solves cash-handling issues with electronic system solution
  • Introduction of Green as a platform with full merchant account functionality
  • REFG’s CEO highlights plans to enter the bitcoin market

Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (OTC: REFG) boasts an industry first. Through a state-of-the-art financial services system that is easy to set up and simple to use, the company’s solution to cannabis banking has shown how to solve cash-handling issues, offering electronic payment and e-commerce features. This gives the marijuana business direct and immediate access to funds while still complying with all federal (FinCEN) laws aimed at combatting both domestic and international money laundering and terrorist financing, among other financial crimes. REFG is not only compliant with these regulations; the company’s end-to-end payment processing solution has finally provided cannabis retailers and consumers with payment options other than cash. Although marijuana has been one of the fastest-growing industries over the last couple of years and is expected to continue growing at the same pace throughout 2018 and beyond, authorized businesses and vendors still have a hard time managing their finances and customers in the absence of banking services (http://cnw.fm/g8Sgb).

REFG emphasises that it is a “first-tier merchant processing cannabis industry pioneer, bringing to market the first and only comprehensive card processing operation of its kind; a state of the art system which tracks sales and tax collection, and empowers businesses with…

CannabisNewsBreaks – Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (REFG) CEO Believes Proposed Legislation on Medical Marijuana in Utah Will be a Success

March 5, 2018 15:08:26

Cannabis-focused financial services company Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions’ (OTC: REFG) CEO Jeremy Roberts believes that proposed legislation in Utah will be ready for consistent debate before the end of the current legislative session on March 8. An article discussing the company reads: “A medical cannabis bill that would advocate a more moderate approach and would “bridge the gap” between two very different legalization initiatives currently underway, has every chance to be successful, according to Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (OTC: REFG) CEO Jeremy Roberts, quoted by the Deseret News (http://cnw.fm/WDo7C). Roberts, who is also a member of the Utah Republican Party, discussed the matter with Rep. Lee Perry, who is planning on coming up with a “workable medical marijuana program in the state.” While the bill has not yet been formally drafted, with Perry still gathering input on language and contents, Roberts is confident that the initiative will be ready in time to be debated before the end of the legislative session on March 8.”

Skinvisible, Inc.’s (SKVI) Potential Merger Set to Deliver an Alternative as Opioid Crisis Deepens

March 1, 2018 15:15:14
  • Developing opioid alternative for pain treatment
  • Well-positioned to capture market share as an opioid substitute
  • Timely market entry as opioid abuse reduces U.S. life expectancy

Opioids are taking a toll on the nation. Data released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that, for the second year in a row, life expectancy in the United States declined due to deaths from opioid overdoses. A major contributing factor to these alarming statistics has been the increasing appearance of synthetic opioid fentanyl. The drug is immensely powerful and is suspected to be the reason why many overdoses turn out to be fatal. Compounding the crisis is the double-headed problem that fentanyl, although manufactured and marketed legally, is also produced and distributed illegally. This duality offers a pernicious path to illicit use for patients introduced to prescription opioids for pain relief. Luckily, alternatives to pain management are under development. One such option will emanate from the proposed merger between Skinvisible, Inc. (OTCQB: SKVI) and Quoin Pharmaceuticals Limited. The combined entity’s proposed first product candidate, QRX001, is expected to be developed for the treatment of post-surgical pain.

The rising use of destructive opioids is reversing the gains eked out by advances in medical science. Since 1963, U.S. life expectancy has improved, as newer drugs and better procedures are keeping us alive for longer. However, owing to increasing reliance on opioids, that trend was reversed in 2015 and 2016. Drug overdoses have now surpassed heart disease as the leading cause of death for…

Canada’s first vertically-integrated cannabis brand house, Hiku Brands Company Ltd. (CSE: HIKU) (OTC: DJACF), through its DOJA Cannabis Ltd. subsidiary, this morning announced that it has completed Health Canada’s pre-sales license inspection of its West Kelowna facility.

EVIO, Inc. (EVIO) Sets Up in California as July 2018 Mandatory Cannabis Testing Deadline Approaches

February 28, 2018 13:00:28
  • Global testing services market expected to achieve 10 percent-plus CAGR growth
  • California cannabis testing market also set for exponential increase
  • EVIO to double national testing footprint to 18 labs

California, befitting its history as part of America’s westward expansion, has earned an appellation as the ‘Wild West’ of pot. Medical marijuana, legal in the state since 1996, has been largely bypassed by quality control and safety regulations. That is about to change. To coincide with the opening of the adult recreational market, a plethora of rules and rubrics has been issued. California MMJ businesses will have until July 2018 to ensure compliance. As a result, demand for cannabis testing services in California is set to increase rapidly, a development that means EVIO, Inc. (OTCQB: EVIO), which has acquired testing facilities in Berkeley, California, is in the right place at the right time.

The supply shortfall in California cannabis testing services is rising to crisis proportions at a time when one report warns that ‘much of the marijuana sold in dispensaries in California would fail safety standards in other states’ (http://cnw.fm/7q9FU). Quality issues plague the industry, as recent examples from further afield demonstrate. A couple of MMJ companies licensed under Canada’s ACMPR were found to be…

  • Committed to high quality products using revolutionary technology
  • The only company in the world with patents for this innovative edible technology

Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) expects to benefit significantly as cannabis deals in Canada cross the billion-dollar mark in anticipation of the legalization of recreational cannabis, which is only months away (http://cnw.fm/IY0qK). Its newly developed oral digestion technology, DehydraTECH™, is a complementary layer that works with other R&D being done on cannaboids. LXRP has been awarded a patent in the U.S. and Australia, with patents pending in 40 more countries, for the improved delivery (oral or ingestible) of all non-psychoactive cannabinoids. As the only company in the world with patents for this innovative edible technology, LXRP is in a unique position to work alongside other cannabis industry players, creating partnerships rather than competitors.

DehydraTECH allows for faster delivery time, lower dosages and shorter treatment regimens. Oral ingestion of the client drug eliminates unhealthy practices of inhalation dosing. It improves the absorption rate, by as much as five to 10 times, of non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), vitamins, cannabinoids and even nicotine. Delivery time, the time it takes from ingestion to payload molecules reaching the bloodstream, is reduced from the 60-90 minutes of current methods to…

(OTC: POTN) was this morning announced as the subject of a comprehensive research report by independent equity research firm Traders News Source.

CannabisNewsAudio – Hiku Brands Co. Ltd. (CSE: HIKU) (OTC: DJACF) Set to Remap Canada’s Cannabis Retail Industry

February 27, 2018 16:40:39

Related Editorial
Out of 120 applicants, Manitoba recently awarded four master retail licenses, a monumental action as Canada prepares to legalize cannabis for recreational use this summer. The entities that now hold prized licenses to retail pot and its associated paraphernalia in the province are: Tokyo Smoke, a subsidiary of HIKU Brands (CSE:HIKU; OTCBB: DJACF) (DJACF Profile); a consortium of Delta 9 Cannabis Inc. and Canopy Growth Corp. (TSX: WEED) (OTC: TWMJF); National Access Cannabis (CSE: NAC) (OTC: NACNF); and 10552763 Canada Corporation. One key industry player that missed out on this licensing opportunity is MedReleaf (TSE: LEAF) (OTC: MEDFF). These licenses open the doors to considerable recreational retail revenue potential, and investors with foresight were quick to take action, with Aphria (TSX: APH) (OTC: APHQF) and Koicha Partners LP investing millions into the big four’s newest presence, HIKU.
