![Key GMP Guidelines For Architectural Design
There are a number of considerations that go into building a business from the ground up while maintaining GMP compliance. In the extraction industry, choosing the right solvent, maintaining standard operating procedures and quality assurance, complying with safety and sanitary requirements are all of utmost importance, but architecture is often a lesser discussed topic in the field. However, this piece of GMP compliance is equally as critical and needs to be understood in full in order to be successful in the hemp and cannabis extraction industry.
Before a business in this industry is even started, GMP architectural facility design has to be taken into serious consideration. There are a number of concerns such as cross contamination risks, environmental and sustainability factors and overall functional area evaluation. Without having a firm grasp on these topics, your business could end up dead on arrival, or worse, it could cost you thousands to address underlying issues to meet GMP requirements effectively burying you in expenses you had not calculated. The good news is that we are here to help.
In this episode of extrakTALKS, Dr. Jon and tackle the topic of GMP facility design and how it can make or break your business. In 29 minutes, they will discuss vital topics including how to control environmental exposure, what a containment system is, how to prevent product contamination, other key factors of product protection, architectural considerations and design considerations and more. Follow along as we provide you with these GMP facility design guidelines to ensure your business is successful in the long term.

![No Holds Barred: Advanced Solvent Removal (Without Rotovaps)
The step of solvent removal in CBD extraction and formulation is not just important, it is essential to creating a product that is pure and safe for consumption. In this episode of extrakTALKS, Dr. Jon and Randall Thompson discuss the ongoing bottleneck of solvent removal with rotovaps and extraktLAB’s fracTron three-stage falling film evaporator solution. Listen close to the pros and cons of traditional rotary evaporators, current falling film technologies, and why the fracTron is the most cutting edge technology in solvent removal.
In a nutshell, solvent removal is necessary to recover, or remove solvent from CBD oil after ethanol extraction or winterization. This is accomplished by applying vacuum pressure and heat to a thin film of oil causing it to evaporate from the oil before condensing and collecting in a receiver flask, or other capture vessel. Because the cannabinoids have a higher boiling point than the solvent, it remains in the oil while the vacuum pressure lowers the necessary temperature further to reduce any damage to the cannabinoids. After the solvent has been collected, it can be disposed of, or recycled for extraction and winterization.
All in all, the solvent removal process is not particularly complicated, but current technology like rotary evaporators are frequently considered to be a bottleneck in the solvent removal process. So, what’s the alternative? Listen in and find out how to perform advanced solvent removal without the use of rotovaps using extraktLAB’s fracTron.

![No Holds Barred!: How to Make the Best Tincture Ever
There are a variety of CBD products that are rapidly gaining popularity, and tinctures are among them. While many customers may know what they want in a CBD tincture, they may not know to make CBD tincture – let alone how they are extracted.
There are a number of factors that make tinctures a popular product in the hemp and botanical industry. The sublingual use of tinctures has the second fastest bioavailability (absorption of CBD) in the body compared to inhalation of smoke or vapor. However, many turn to tinctures to mitigate the potential risks of inhaled CBD products, making it a safe, effective option for everyone interested in CBD use.
That being said, producers have needed to adapt to the market of CBD products – including tinctures – in order to maintain profitability and quality reputation. One major factor when considering how to make CBD tincture is the extraction method by which they create their products – among the major methods being ethanol and CO2 extraction. The fact of the matter is that these extraction methods vary in their efficiency to create quality tinctures.
If you’ve ever wondered how tinctures are made, what makes a quality tincture, or what makes a tincture safe, join Dr. Jon and Randall Thompson as they walk through how to make the best tincture possible. You will learn about distillate and isolate formulations, how to use terpenes properly, and how tinctures are made safely and easily with the highest possible quality.
