RESIDUAL SOLVENT ANALYSIS
MOISTURE CONTENT
Knowing the moisture content in cannabis products is an essential step to increasing shelf life and preventing mold and other negative health impacts for consumers. If moisture levels are too high, dangerous microbial contaminants can take form.
Testing Method:
Analytical Moisture Balance
Solvents, commonly used in chemical extractions, are safe and harmless if handled properly, but can present a danger if too much is left over in the final product. Volatile chemicals like butane, propane, and hexane are examples of solvents used in the chemical extraction process. This is why Residual Solvent Testing is necessary to ensure that the products on the shelf are safe for consumption and free of residual solvents.
Testing Method:
Headspace Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer (HS-GC-MS)
