## Resource

When cannabis products began failing state microbial tests, @Radsource turned to an unexpected solution: medical x-ray technology. In this episode, George Terry and David Hyde explain how photonic, through-transmission decontamination eliminates pathogens like salmonella, E. coli, and aspergillus without harming cannabinoids or terpenes. This conversation, hosted by MJ Gibson live at MJBizCon 2025 breaks down why contamination is an agricultural reality, how regulations are evolving, and what proven, GMP-backed technology means for cannabis safety and product quality.
