    Cannabinoids

    小标语

    Cannabinoids are chemical compounds found in cannabis, hemp and hops. These compounds, also known as phytocannabinoids, are found in the highest concentration in the flowering portion of the plant, specifically within the resin glands located on the flower. At Green Leaf Lab, we test for 14 different cannabinoids.

    Terpenes

    小标语

    Terpenes are the flavor and aroma compounds found in plant resins. There are thousands found in the plant kingdom and more than 100 known to be in cannabis alone. Terpenes are the chemical compounds that provide the aroma and flavor of cannabis varieties, such as earthy and spicy or sweet and fruity. Terpenes are known as the “fingerprint” of a cannabis strain. Green Leaf Lab currently tests for 42 terpenes.

    Pesticides

    小标语

    Pesticides are commonly used in agricultural production. Research shows that pesticides have negative impacts on health and wellness. As more research is conducted and published, specifically on the impact of pesticide inhalation, pesticide testing will continue to develop in the cannabis industry. We ensure our pesticide testing is accurate and legally defensible by utilizing two separate instruments, GC-MS MS and LC-MS MS to perform a pesticide test. This gives our clients and consumers peace of mind.

    Sampling

    小标语

    The representative sampling of cannabis and cannabis products is the first step to ensure accurate test results and therefore the accurate labeling of those goods. If the sample collected does not properly reflect the entire batch of cannabis or cannabis goods, the test results will not be representative and therefore inaccurate. This can create issues for both cannabis businesses and consumers alike. At Green Leaf Lab we pride ourselves on going above and beyond to ensure batches are sampled following a comprehensive sampling protocol to ensure accurate results and defensible data.
