LAS VEGAS, NV, March 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire – Digipath, Inc. (OTCQB: DIGP) (“Digipath” or the “Company”), a service-oriented independent analytical testing laboratory, data analytics firm focused on the cannabis and hemp markets is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Validation Agreement (VA) with CASPR Technologies, a leader in smart environmental indoor technology for healthcare and other spaces.
CASPR (Continuous Air & Surface Pathogen Reduction), is intent on entering the cannabis industry with its market leading technology, proven in other verticals including healthcare, transportation, restaurants, education, churches and more. Under the terms of the agreement, Digipath will test and validate the efficacy of CASPR’s technology in botanical applications, specifically cannabis and hemp. CASPR Technologies will be providing Digipath with a proprietary CASPR powered Smart ToteTM, a device which could provide cannabis growers with the ability to mitigate any yeast and mold microbial contamination while drying and curing.
Digipath will provide ongoing testing to verify and validate the results as new developments and products are created. New data will be compared to the tens of thousands of data points compiled by Digipath and kept in the Digipath Data Vault over the past six years. All validation tests will include both PCR and plating to test for microbial contamination as well as analytical tests for any possible effects on cannabinoids and terpenes. Digipath will also complete heavy metals and pesticides analysis to again, insure efficacy of the CASPR device.
“Digipath is honored to participate in the critical validation phase for what could become a game-changing product in the cannabis industry,” stated Digipath Founder and President Todd Denkin. “CASPR is firmly established in other industries as an essential environmental technology company and its potential entry into the cannabis space is long overdue.
“We see cultivators with significant crop losses on a weekly basis due to yeast and mold contamination in our labs that CASPR’s technology could very well mitigate. A system the Smart ToteTM that prevents those losses can most definitely lead to increased profits for cannabis and hemp growers at tremendous scale,” added Denkin.
“Digipath is widely respected as a veteran laboratory with excellent leadership and a truly invaluable body of data in the Digipath Data Vault,” said Dr. Christophe Suchy, CASPR CTO. “They will certainly be a great partner and our gateway to market acceptance and eventual success in the cannabis industry."
Testing is scheduled to begin this month.
