Quantitation of Terpenes in Cannabis Products Using the Triple Quad™ 3500 LC-MS/MS System
Here, we present an LC-MS/MS method that uses atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) and the budget-friendly SCIEX Triple Quad™ 3500 LCMS/ MS system for the analysis of terpenes (major determinant of aroma) in cannabis products.
Screening Medical Marijuana for Pesticides by GC-MS/MS
This poster describes streamlined method development process for analysis of pesticide residues in MM using a QuEChERS sample preparation method, followed by GC-MS/MS detection and quantitation.
Microbiological Safety Testing of Cannabis
Our approach in this white paper is try to balance these needs by giving recommendations that will exceed the public health protections in other industries, but not by more than is reasonable or necessary.
Pesticide Use on Cannabis
This paper presents data indicating that pesticide use is widespread in the Cannabis industry, and that pesticide residue on retail Cannabis products is often found at levels exceeding the allowable levels on any agricultural product.
