SARASOTA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Neutra Corp. (OTCBB: NTRR), a provider of all-natural wellness solutions, announced today that it began development on a simple, affordable new system for testing nutraceutical concentrates for harmful contaminants.

“There are a number of nutraceutical concentrates, especially those related to medicinal cannabis, that can pose significant health risks if contaminated”

The project is being led by Dr. Richard C. Kaufman, the company’s new head of research and development in the in the $42 billion nutraceuticals industry. The system will be especially useful for testing oils, butters, tinctures, resins and other concentrates derived from medical marijuana (MMJ), says NTRR CEO Sydney Jim.

“There are a number of nutraceutical concentrates, especially those related to medicinal cannabis, that can pose significant health risks if contaminated,” Mr. Jim said. “Many cannabis oils, for example, are extracted using potentially harmful substances such as butane. We’ve got plans for an easy, disposable test that will help nutraceutical users determine if their customized remedies are pure and free of contaminants.”

Such an innovation could prove to be extremely lucrative for NTRR as interest in marijuana extracts grows by the day. The booming U.S. MMJ sector is forecast to climb to $6 billion in coming years by MMJ Business Daily’s Marijuana Business Factbook.

Through its subsidiary, Cannabis Technologies, NTRR is working to help introduce the next wave of healthier, more efficient delivery systems to the ever-growing MMJ market. By providing innovative nutraceutical products and services such as new MMJ breakthroughs, Neutra Corp. plans to follow in the footsteps of other successful public companies including Cannabis Science, Inc. (OTCBB: CBIS), Medical Marijuana Inc. (OTCBB: MJNA) and Terra Tech Corp. (OTCBB: TRTC), delivering technological advancements in the cultivation and processing of cannabis in approved markets.
