Your Partner for Cannabis and Hemp Science:

Analyzing cannabis can be challenging. From setting up a laboratory, developing methods to ensure maximum throughput of samples, generating client reports, and preserving data integrity; the demand of a modern cannabis lab can be challenging to meet. More importantly, as state and country rules and regulations evolve, cannabis labs need instrumentation and support that can meet new and stricter demands. Difficult matrices like these require the highest sensitivity and greater performance than ever before. The PerkinElmer Cannabis Suite tackles all the major regulated analyses, including: pesticides, mycotoxins, residual solvents, terpenes, potency, and heavy metals. What’s more, these SOP’s come standard with our instruments to help you get started analyzing quickly and accurately. To further validate the performance of these methods for the industry, The Emerald Test Proficiency Test (PT) for Potency was conducted. The Emerald Test™ is an Inter-Laboratory Comparison and Proficiency Test (ILC/PT) program for cannabis testing labs. The results from the PT inter-laboratory samples passed; therefore, the method meets inter-laboratory reproducibility and accuracy.

Whether your lab is well established or just starting up, having a single-source partner who can offer turnkey solutions that meet the current regulations is essential to a successful business. For years, we’ve worked with government and contract cannabis laboratories to develop industry-leading methods, technology, and exceptional return on investment. We help drive analytical standards and commit to ensuring your laboratory has maximum uptime.

Learn about our various testing methods and applications for cannabis analyses. Let us work with you to build an efficient workflow, so you can focus on growing your business and brand.
