Terpenoid Profile & Potency

PureLabs performs quantitative terpenoid profile testing in Oklahoma Gas Chromatography (GC).

Terpenes are the aromatic compounds that endow cannabis with its unique scent. Terpenoid profile testing in Oklahoma is crucial for differentiating between strains of cannabis, as terpenes have a major influence on the medical and psychological effects of a plant.

Terpenes provide the flavor, scent, and aroma of plants and work synergistically with the cannabinoids.

PureLabs is currently providing terpenoid profile testing in Oklahoma for 38 terpenes, some examples of which include:
