dc.description | In this study, the physicochemical and microbiological properties of chocolate with non psychoactive Cannabis sativa L. are evaluated. The growing interest in natural and functional
ingredients has highlighted the need for new food alternatives, such as Cannabis sativa L., known
for its high concentration of cannabidiol (CBD), a compound with multiple therapeutic benefits.
The research focuses on how the inclusion of Cannabis sativa L. influences the physicochemical
stability, organoleptic properties and microbiological safety of chocolate. Globally, the demand for
CBD products is expanding, although regulations vary significantly, For example, in Ecuador,
according to the regulations of the National Agency for Regulation, Control and Health
Surveillance (ARCSA), only a level of less than 0.3% THC can be used in foodstuffs. This study
aims to contribute to the development of functional and innovative foods, as well as to analyze
the potential effects of CBD in a widely consumed and socially accepted product such as
chocolate. This will positively empower the cannabis trade market, encouraging the creation of
products that complement or combine in a successful way as chocolate is one of the best-selling
products, obtaining a place in the market, thus causing a great incentive in the development of a
new product that brings with it the opportunity for the development of new business opportunities,
employment and of course innovation. This study also manages to exemplify the responsible use
of cannabis with the development of a chocolate that can be consumed by anyone in order to
demonstrate and promote the use of cannabis in a safe and conscientious way. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | En este estudio se evalúan las propiedades físico-químicas y microbiológicas del chocolate con
Cannabis sativa L. no psicoactivo. El interés creciente en ingredientes naturales y funcionales ha
destacado la necesidad de nuevas alternativas alimentarias, como el Cannabis sativa L.,
conocido por su alta concentración de cannabidiol (CBD), un compuesto con múltiples beneficios
terapéuticos. La investigación se centra en cómo la inclusión de Cannabis sativa L. influye en sus
propiedades fisicoquímica, organolépticas y la seguridad microbiológica del chocolate. A nivel
global, la demanda de productos con CBD está en expansión, aunque las regulaciones varían
significativamente, por ejemplo, en el Ecuador según las normativas de la (ARCSA) que significa
(Agencia Nacional de Regulación, Control y Vigilancia Sanitaria), esto, solo se puede usar un
nivel inferior al 0,3 % de THC en lo que corresponde a alimentos. Este estudio tiene como objetivo
contribuir al desarrollo de alimentos funcionales e innovadores, así como analizar los efectos
potenciales del CBD en un producto ampliamente consumido y socialmente aceptado como el
chocolate. Potenciando de manera positiva al mercado del comercio de cannabis, incentivando
a crear productos que complementen o combinen de manera exitosa como lo es el chocolate
pues es uno de los productos que más se venden obteniendo un lugar en el mercado, provocando
así un gran incentivo en el desarrollo de un nuevo producto que conlleva consigo la oportunidad
del desarrollo de nuevas oportunidades de negocio, empleo y por supuesto la innovación. Este
estudio también logra ejemplificar sobre el responsable uso del cannabis con el desarrollo de un
chocolate que puede ser consumido por cualquier persona para así poder demostrar y promover
el uso del cannabis de manera segura y consiente | es_ES |
