[FIXED] python pandas how to remove after specific string?

Issue

I have an data frame like this

      details
      Pinene 0.16%, Borneol 0.08%, Myrcene 0.12%,Total terpenes content 1.00%, Parents Strains Kandy KushCookie Monster

      Pinene 0.18%, Borneol 0.08%, Myrcene 0.2%,Total terpenes content 05.00%, Parents Strains Kandy KushCookie Monster

I want to remove everything after Total terpenes content. so my expected data frame will be look like this:

          details
          Pinene 0.16%, Borneol 0.08%, Myrcene 0.12%,Total terpenes content 1.00%
    
          Pinene 0.18%, Borneol 0.08%, Myrcene 0.2%,Total terpenes content 05.00%

Solution

here is one way to do it

# using regex extract everything prior to 'Total terpenes content' and until
# positive lookahead of ","
# and assign back to details column

df['details']=df['details'].str.extract(r'(.*Total terpenes content.*(?=,))' )
df

0    Pinene 0.16%, Borneol 0.08%, Myrcene 0.12%,Tot...
1    Pinene 0.18%, Borneol 0.08%, Myrcene 0.2%,Tota...
Name: details, dtype: object
