ESNR zNOSE now has the ability to determine the percentage of THC in marijuana. Which could be widely used in states where it's legal.

Testing of Marijuana samples using zNose®:

The distinguishing features of multi-compound fragrances associated with material suspected of containing cannabis may be verified if it contains the physiologically active ingredients such as THC. A peak identification or pattern recognition algorithm coupled with a fast SAW/GC allows suspect samples to be screened at rapid rate.

Information as to the physical composition of each sample may also be used to quantify the potency and possible origin of the contraband material. zNose® is equipped with a special user interface for unskilled users. The new user interface transforms the analytical chromatogram picture into a simple array of detection alarms

zNose® has been field tested in applications involving drugs of abuse for the U.S. Customs and the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), explosives for the Federal Aviation Administration, and currency detection for the U.S. Postal Inspection Service. These examples represent only a small fraction of law enforcement applications.
