This disclosure relates to Cannabis varieties with modified protein content, oil content, and fatty acid profiles. This disclosure thus relates to the seeds of Cannabis varieties of the disclosure, the plants of Cannabis varieties of the disclosure, plant parts of Cannabis varieties of the disclosure, methods for producing a Cannabis variety by crossing a Cannabis variety of the disclosure with another Cannabis variety, and methods for producing a Cannabis variety containing in its genetic material one or more backcross conversion traits or transgenes and the backcross conversion Cannabis plants and plant parts produced by those methods.

Aqueous anticaking agent solutions are prepared by mixing a ferrous source, a citrate source, a hydroxide source and water together. The ferrous source and the citrate source are present in a Fe to citrate molar ratio of from 0.5 to 1.5 and the hydroxide source is present in an amount to give a total hydroxide to citrate molar ratio of from (0.1+x) to (1.0+x), where x=the number of ionizable protons associated with the carboxylate sites on the citrate source. Alternatively, the hydroxide source is present in an amount such that the intermediate aqueous mixture has a pH at the time of mixing of at least 5. Salt is treated by applying the described aqueous anticaking agent solution in an amount effective to reduce caking of the salt.

The present invention a polyphenol complexes with amino acids, peptides, proteins, glycosaminoglycans, polysaccharides, mucopolysaccharide, disaccharides, monosaccharides, amino sugars, glycol-proteins, DNA/RNA oligonucleotides, mRNA, siRNA, antibodies or other micro- or macro biomolecules.
