Cannabis testing is a process that evaluates the safety, potency, and quality of cannabis products for medical and recreational use. Through rigorous analysis, cannabis testing laboratories assess factors such as cannabinoid content, terpene profiles, and levels of contaminants like pesticides and heavy metals. By ensuring compliance with regulatory standards and consumer safety, cannabis testing plays a crucial role in promoting transparency and confidence in the burgeoning cannabis industry. Explore how cannabis testing laboratories contribute to delivering reliable and high-quality cannabis products to consumers worldwide.
Ensure batch-to-batch consistency with a full spectrum of products with rigorous quality control. Our USP-NF, FCC grade chemicals are used by established pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical manufacturers to ensure safe, quality, and effective products.

Cannabis potency testing is performed using HPLC. Acetonitrile from Spectrum Chemical exceeds ACS Specifications and HPLC Grade as a polar aprotic solvent in organic synthesis as well as a carrier (mobile phase) solvent in HPLC. Acetonitrile is a medium-polarity solvent with a convenient liquid range that is miscible with water, making it one of the most popular HPLC solvent choices.
Cannabis requires nitrogen in an ionized form for proper growth. Ammonium nitrate--a white crystalline solid which is highly soluble in water--is most commonly used in agriculture as a nitrogen fertilizer. Fertilizer manufacturers can rely on Ammonium Nitrate, ACS Reagent Grade from Spectrum Chemical to meet the toughest regulatory standards for quality and purity.
Growers in the cannabis industry rely on fertilizers for optimum yield. The most common and valuable fertilizer source in the world, potassium occurs naturally as the mineral sylvite and is a metal halide salt. Fertilizer manufacturers can rely on Potassium Chloride, ACS Reagent Grade from Spectrum Chemical as the quality standard against which other substances are graded and have met the toughest regulatory standards for qu…
The cannabis industry uses ICP-MS and AA to test for heavy metals. Nitric Acid, Ultratrace from Spectrum Chemical is a strong, highly corrosive mineral acid with extremely low metal content (over 50 with levels less than 100 PPT) ideal for this purpose due to its primary use as an analytical reagent in elemental analysis determinations using ICP and AA techniques, digestion of water samples, and as a doping agent for organic…
