Cannabis Analysis: Methods and Techniques for a Growing Industry focuses on the need for the scientific, therapeutic and economic expansion of the cannabis industry and the accurate analysis of composition and contaminants. While there is an extensive body of scientific work focused on analytical methodologies for cannabinoid compounds, the bulk of the literature is devoted to forensics and analysis for law enforcement purposes. This marks the first analytical book to address these challenges that uses a focused and scientific approach. A sheer lack of uniformity in the industry poses risks and challenges for patients, growers and state agencies tasked with overseeing cannabis laws.

Written by academics and professionals whose work focuses on cannabis and its properties, this book serves as the reference standard for analytical methods in the cannabis industry.

After receiving his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Montana in 2008, Tyler helped launch Rivertop Renewables, a renewable chemicals start-up company located in Missoula, MT. Tyler now serves as Rivertop’s Vice President of Research and Development. Tyler is an adjunct faculty member at the University of Montana where he serves as a co-advisor for a Ph.D. student in the Material Science program. He also serves as the Vice Chair of the Montana chapter of the American Chemistry Society (ACS). Tyler also serves as a board member for the American Cleaning Institute (ACI) and is an active member of the American Oil Chemists Society (AOCS).
