The Microfluidizer®processor technology is the only technology that can create nano-sized emulsions or encapsulations (liposomes) that meet all of the above requirements.
The Microfluidizer® processor provides the highest uniform shear rates on the market by utilizing a fixed geometry Interaction ChamberTM and extremely high constant processing pressures. The Microfluidizer® technology is also guaranteed to scale up so that product processing and results are consistent from R&D development to manufacturing. In addition, Microfluidizer® processors have a proven track record for meeting FDA requirements for food and pharmaceutical production and have the capability to be cGMP compliant.
Molecular weight reduction of cannabis oil is common practice. This technique reduces the viscosity and makes the oil easier to work with in delivery methods such as vaporizers. Chemical processing modifies the chemical structure of cannabinoids and the chemicals add cost and undesirable contaminants, which increases the requirements for approval, testing and regulation. A Microfluidizer®processor is superior to a chemical approach because it does not require any chemicals in the process and will not alter the cannabinoids.
For producers, extractors, and processors who want to improve CBD and cannabis-related products, the Microfluidizer® high shear processors provide a scalable solution with the highest efficiency. The resulting unique formulations will differentiate your products with improved shelf life, stability, and effectiveness.
