Specific GC configurations to measure potency (THC, CBD, CBN levels), and pesticides measurement (organophosphate and organochloride pesticides - most commonly used pesticides, except avermectin (AVID®) and other non-phosphate or chloride types) down to 10 ppm, as well as THC in edibles, such as butter, terpenes in cannabis, and residual solvents in cannabis.

Medical cannabis contains many active cannabinoid compounds, but three are considered important, cannabidiol (CBD), THC, and cannabinol (CBN). A GC is the perfect tool for measuring the amount of these three compounds in plant material, resin, tinctures and edibles. Other analytical techniques such as HPLC and GC/ MS can also be used, but are much more expensive to buy, and vastly more complicated to operate, yet they do NOT provide superior data. For this analysis, GC is the best solution. Unlike HPLC, the GC naturally de-carboxylates the THCA (the original molecule produced by the plant) into Delta-9 THC saving a processing and reporting step. Total cost to perform a GC analysis is less than one dollar, requires only 0.1 gram of sample, and usually takes less than 5 minutes.
