(Pink Sheets:ESNR) (EST) a leading provider of ultra-fast vapor analyzers, and California Testing Authority LLC, (CTA) an innovative leader in certification of cannabis for medical use, announced today that CTA will be EST's exclusive customer in California for the testing and certification of medical cannabis.

Using EST's zNOSE, CTA will conduct on-site testing of medical marijuana to insure the product is free from excessive molds, spores, insecticides and other pathogens.

Cannabis or medical marijuana has been shown to have several well-documented beneficial effects.  Among these are: the amelioration of nausea and vomiting, stimulation of hunger in chemotherapy and AIDS patients, lowered intraocular eye pressure (shown to be effective for treating glaucoma), as well as general analgesic effects (pain relief).
