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.
Dispersive SPE (dSPE), often referred to as the "QuEChERS" method (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe), is modern sample prep technique that is becoming increasingly popular in the area of multi-residue pesticide analysis in food and agricultural products. Using the QuEChERS method, food/agricultural samples are first extracted with an aqueous miscible solvent (e.g., acetonitrile) in the presence of high amoun…

The SilverQuest™ Silver Staining Kit provides a rapid and easy method to silver stain proteins and DNA in polyacrylamide gels. Silver staining allows detection of most proteins since it is 30-fold more sensitive than staining with colloidal Coomassie® G-250. The SilverQuest™ Silver Staining Kit is specifically designed to provide sensitive silver staining compatible with mass spectrometry analysis. Ideal for rapid preparati…
