Building Laboratory Capacity to Ensure Cannabis Safety, Quality, and Research
On Demand
The regulatory and laboratory testing requirements for the cannabis and hemp industries are both dynamic and increasing in complexity. The analysis of cannabis and hemp requires a range of analytical techniques for determination of basic label claim information as well as low-level detection of contaminants in complex plant materials, extracts, and edible products. Cannabis, hemp, and its derived products present several analytical challenges.
Increasingly stringent regulations demand high-quality methods to generate accurate results, including laboratory proficiency testing, with a high-level of data management from seed to final product. Additionally, cannabis and hemp samples vary widely in composition and require different analytical workflows including sample extraction and cleanup procedures prior to chromatography (both liquid and gas chromatography) and mass spectrometry analysis with informatics to support data review and reporting.
Key points:
- Current challenges and solutions in cannabis testing
- Analytical tools to address the cannabis & hemp industries safety, quality, and research needs
- Turnkey analytical workflows for testing
