Provided are methods for drying and sterilizing cannabis plant material comprising providing feed cannabis plant material having a water content of M0, wherein M0 is greater than 45%; partially drying the feed cannabis plant material to form a partially dried cannabis plant material having a water content of M1, wherein M1 is in the range of between 12% wt and 40% wt; sterilizing the partially dried cannabis plant material to form sterilized partially dried cannabis plant material having a water content of M3; and when said M3 is less than 8% wt or greater than 16% wt, adjusting said M3 to provide a water content of M2, wherein said M2 is between 8% wt and 16% wt. Further provided are methods and systems for drying of cannabis plant material.

The present invention discloses a preparation method and application of anti-cat-and-dog allergen finishing composition solution. The preparation process is as follows: Japanese Diospyros rhombifolia Hemsl and Canangaodorata petals were washed for 3˜5 times, ground and ultrasonically treated to prepare suspension liquid; the suspension liquid was treated by microwave and then centrifuged to obtain light yellow supernate; the light yellow supernate was performed with membrane separation treatment to form a mixed extract of Japanese Diospyros rhombifolia Hemsl and Canangaodorata; the obtained mixed extract of Japanese Diospyros rhombifolia Hemsl and Canangaodorata was mixed with silver ion compound, Eucalyptus oil, fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, sodium laurate, sodium stearate, citric acid, serine protease, pectinase, cellulase, xylanase, beta-glucanase, glycerol, cetyldimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride, chitosan, pigment, plant essence, preservative and deionized water evenly, according to a certain mass share ratio; ultrasonically vibrating the mixture at a certain temperature for a certain time, and cooling the mixture to room temperature to obtain the anti-cat-and-dog allergen finishing composition solution. The preparation method of the composition is simple, and can be used for daily spraying and wiping, and can also be used in the washing or drying process of clothes.

Methods of manufacturing vegetable powders and/or vegetable compositions are described herein.

A family of α-glucosidase inhibitors are identified. Exemplary α-glucosidase inhibitors may be obtained from Heterophragma adenophyllum seem. The inhibitors are used to lower blood sugar levels and thus to treat diseases related to or characterized by high blood sugar, such as diabetes.

Disclosed are novel processing methods for green coffee beans that result in novel green coffee bean products, including products that incorporate whole green coffee beans which is combined with a whole hemp powder or CBD. Methods for processing green coffee beans include selecting whole coffee beans in their fresh green unroasted state with naturally-occurring levels of phytonutrients, sterilizing and drying them, applying iterative grinding processes and stabilization techniques, all while avoiding high temperatures. A similar method is used to prepare a whole hemp powder, which may then be combined with the whole green coffee bean powder.

The present disclosure relates generally to the preparation and use of certain botanical extracts and therapeutic compositions for the treatment of viral infections, cancer, pain, itch, and inflammation. The present disclosure generally relates to antiviral compositions, and more specifically to the preparation of botanical extracts and their use in the treatment of viral infections, cancer, pain associated conditions.

The present invention relates to a beet juice with an increased intestinal absorption rate, a method for manufacturing the beet juice, and use of the same, and more specifically, to a beet juice with an intestinal digestion and absorption rate increased by transforming high-molecular compounds into low-molecular compounds by low-temperature ripening a beet, with the earthy flavor removed by baking the beet, and with the earthy and bitter taste mitigated by adding a carrot juice or apple juice, and an anti-oxidative, or anti-hypertensive, healthy food composition using the beet juice.

Disclosed is a method for preparing bitter Ganoderma lucidum spore powder, and relates to the field of drugs or health care products. The method includes: removing visible impurities from Ganoderma lucidum spores, conducting ice bath and heating extraction, filtering through a microfiltration membrane, sterilizing by drying, and conducting sporoderm disruption to obtain the bitter Ganoderma lucidum spore powder. The preparation method effectively improves the content of the bitter substances in the Ganoderma lucidum spore powder by removing shriveled spores through multiple times of impurity removal and filtration in combination with the manner of conducting sporoderm disruption after extraction. Taking the total Ganoderma lucidum triterpenoids in the Ganoderma lucidum spores as a representative of the bitter substances, the content of the total Ganoderma lucidum triterpenoids can reach 5-8%. Meanwhile, the preparation method can also make the content of Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides reaching 6-10%.

In a multi-step process for selectively purifying various pharmacologically-relevant components of a source plant such as cannabis, an initial step of the process provides a low-temperature, robust essential oil/terpene capture that also dehydrates and decarboxylates the starting product—fresh raw cannabis—by means of a vacuum-assisted microwave distillation process. By doing the terpene capture under vacuum distillation temperature may be kept low. The low distillation temperature maximizes yields of thermally-sensitive components such as terpenes and cannabinoids. The process includes additional steps of: extract cannabinoids from the dehydrated cannabis to produce a crude extract via a supercritical CO2 extraction process; purify crude extract of fats, lipids, plant material; and distill relevant cannabinoids from the purified crude extract via a wiped-film process. Selected terpenes and cannabinoids are then recombined in predetermined proportions to achieve extracts of unusual purity and having targeted therapeutic profiles.
