Testing & Analytics: Ensuring Quality, Safety & Compliance
Cannabis testing and analytics play a crucial role in quality control, consumer safety, and regulatory compliance. This section focuses on lab testing methods, cannabinoid and terpene profiling, contamination detection, and industry standards to ensure high-quality, safe, and market-ready cannabis products.
Key Areas of Cannabis Testing:
Cannabinoid Profile Analysis – Measuring THC, CBD, CBG, CBN , and other compounds
Terpene Testing – Identifying flavor and aroma profiles
Pesticide & Heavy Metal Screening – Ensuring products are free from harmful contaminants
Microbial & Mycotoxin Testing – Detecting mold, bacteria, and other pathogens
Residual Solvent Analysis – Compliance for extracted cannabis products (BHO, CO2, ethanol)
Moisture & Water Activity Testing – Preventing mold growth and ensuring proper curing
Importance of Testing & Compliance:
Consumer Safety – Prevents contamination risks in medical and recreational products
Regulatory Requirements – Meets GACP, GMP, and EU-GMP certification standards
Product Consistency & Potency – Ensures accurate dosing and reliable effects
Market Trust & Transparency – Builds brand credibility with verified lab results
