CANNABIS POTENCY TESTING SERVICES IN OKLAHOMA

At Purelabs, we provide efficient cannabis potency testing services to clients in Oklahoma. Our state-of-the-art laboratories are equipped with the latest technology and equipment to accurately measure the levels of cannabinoids and other compounds in cannabis products.

What is Cannabis Potency Testing?

Cannabis potency testing is a process used to determine the percentage of cannabinoids (such as THC and CBD) present in a cannabis product. Cannabis potency tests are important for both consumers and producers, as they ensure accurate labeling and consistency in product quality. It also helps regulators enforce compliance with state laws regarding the maximum allowable levels of certain compounds.

Why is Cannabis Potency Testing important?

Cannabis potency tests are crucial for several reasons:

  • Safety: Knowing the potency of a cannabis product is essential for ensuring consumer safety. High levels of certain cannabinoids can have adverse effects on some individuals, and potency testing helps identify these products.
  • Accuracy in Labeling: Many consumers rely on accurate labeling to make informed decisions about the cannabis products they purchase. Potency testing ensures that the labeled levels of THC, CBD, and other compounds are correct.
  • Consistency: Consistency is vital for both consumers and producers. For consumers, it means they can trust that the product will have the same potency and effects each time they purchase it. For producers, consistency ensures their products meet quality standards and helps them maintain a loyal customer base.

How is Cannabis Potency Testing done?

At Purelabs, we use High-Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to accurately measure the levels of cannabinoids and other compounds in cannabis samples. This method is considered the gold standard for cannabis potency testing due to its accuracy, precision, and sensitivity.

  1. Sample Preparation: Before testing can begin, the cannabis sample must be prepared by grinding it into a fine powder.
  2. Extraction: The ground sample is then mixed with a solvent (usually ethanol) to extract the cannabinoids and other compounds.
  3. Injection: The extracted solution is then injected into the HPLC system, where it is separated and analyzed.
  4. Detection: During separation, the different compounds in the sample are detected and measured based on their individual characteristics.
  5. Data Analysis: The results of the analysis are then compared to a standard reference to determine the potency of the sample.
