Many people go out of their way to buy meat and vegetables that haven’t been exposed to pesticides. Don’t they expect the same of their cannabis flower and concentrates? Even the smallest amount of pesticides in cannabis products can produce adverse health effects. Chronic oral or inhalation exposure can result in neurodegenerative disease, diabetes, respiratory disease, birth defects, cancer, and reproductive problems.
Green Scientific Labs can identify and quantify trace amounts of pesticide residues using liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, and tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS). We offer a compliance panel of some of the most common and concerning chemicals. In total we test for a total of 64 pesticides, insecticides, and fungicides. Our comprehensive screening is designed to produce rapid results that are consistent with EPA and international testing standards.
