Tests offered
8 / 12 in scope| Assay | Category | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Cannabinoid Potency Quantifies THC, CBD and minor cannabinoids. Required on every compliance panel and on the label of any product sold at retail. | Potency | In scope |
| Heavy Metals Measures lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury. Cannabis is a hyperaccumulator, so contaminated soil shows up in the finished product. | Safety & contaminants | In scope |
| Microbial Contaminants Screens for total yeast and mould, coliforms, E. coli, salmonella and Aspergillus species. Required before any product reaches a patient. | Safety & contaminants | In scope |
| Mycotoxins Detects aflatoxins and ochratoxin A produced by mould. Mandatory in most regulated markets because the toxins survive processing. | Safety & contaminants | In scope |
| Pesticide Residue Screens for regulated pesticide residues at parts-per-billion levels. A failure here is the most common cause of a batch being destroyed. | Safety & contaminants | In scope |
| Residual Solvents Confirms that butane, ethanol, propane and other extraction solvents have been purged below action limits. Applies to concentrates and vapes. | Safety & contaminants | In scope |
| Moisture & Water Activity Water activity above roughly 0.65 Aw lets mould grow in the package. Cheap to run and the single best predictor of shelf-life failure. | Quality | In scope |
| Terpene Profile Identifies and quantifies the aromatic compounds that drive strain character. Usually optional for compliance, but a major marketing input. | Quality | In scope |
| Stability & Shelf Life | Stability | Not held |
| Filth & Foreign Matter | Safety & contaminants | Not held |
| Homogeneity | Quality | Not held |
| Vitamin E Acetate | Safety & contaminants | Not held |
