Ted McGuinness, Operations Manager at Delta, comments:

"Back in 2001, Canada became the first country to legalize cannabis for medical use. Since then, the ingredient has been used across a number of consumer products, thanks to the hard work of research and development across the country."

"By releasing this infographic, we're aiming to highlight just how many uses it has and how it can help research and development flourish. For example, Canada's 129 licensed cannabis producers are now looking to work with scientists on everything from gene mapping and metabolic engineering in order to further the potential of the industry and the uses of cannabis products."

The company, which specialises in distributing chemicals, consumables, research and development materials, equipment and ICP & ICP-MS components, supplies a range of lab equipment that can be used for research and development in legal cannabis usage.
