While the legalization of cannabis for both medicinal and recreational purposes has been gaining speed, legislation and regulation has not necessarily kept pace. Out of a drive for self-regulation and significant consumer safety concerns, many producers and manufacturers are turning to testing labs in order to ensure that their products are of high quality and free of chemical contaminants.

Spex CertiPrep® offers ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 17034 Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) for all of the common contaminants such as pesticide residues, residual solvents and heavy metals, as well as qualitative analysis CRMs, such as terpenes. As the industry demands change and regulations are put into place, we continually update our product offering.

Designed for state specific pesticide regulations:
• OAR 333-008-11
• HB 3460
• AOAC 2007-01
• EN 15663

For your convenience, we have designed cannabis pesticide mixes and a kit which contains the 95 compounds that are required to be tested based on regulations set by the Government of Canada. This requirement for mandatory testing for the presence of unauthorized pesticides will help ensure that Canadians can continue to have confidence in obtaining safe, quality-controlled medical cannabis from licensed producers.

This multi-component standard contains 19 components.
