BOOK A TEST

Each sample receives a separate certificate of analysis (COA). Multiple tests performed on the same sample are grouped into the same COA. If you want more than one test done on a sample, it is easier to book them all in one go. if you are booking only one type of test, the individual tests are listed underneath.

Potency

Potency & Cannabinoids

From R 460 per test
Basic potency quantifies total CBD and total THC as per after decarboxylation.
Full potency quantifies 3 cannabinoids of your choice (with their acid-forms where relevant).
Full cannabinoids quantifies CBC, CBC-A, CBD, CBD-A, CBDV, CBDV-A, CBG, CBG-A, CBL, CBN, CBN-A, THC, THC-A, THCV, THCV-A, and Δ8-THC.

Terpene Analysis

Terpene Analysis

From R 1 000 per test
Terpenes contribute to the organoleptic properties (smell and taste) of Cannabis and they have also been shown to play a significant role in combination with the cannabinoids in the entourage effect of the plant. Terpene testing can be done on any samples containing Cannabis and we can measure the presence of over 20 terpenes. Results are shown as a percentage per mass of the tested product.
Test now
Density measurement

Density Measurement

R 100 per test
Volumetric mass density is a substance’s mass per unit of volume. The mathematical formula is ρ = m / V where ρ is the density, m is the mass, and V is the volume. Our density measurement allows you to calculate the volume of your liquid if you are already able to determine its mass. Consider that 1g of your product is not necessarily 1ml - a density measurement is required to accurately label the contents of products that are supplied per unit of volume. NB: this test applies to liquid samples only.
Test now
Loss on Drying Test

Loss on Drying

R 200 per test
Dried herbs last longer than fresh herbs because they have less water than fresh plant material. Micro-organisms, especially mould, flourish in the presence of the right amount of water. When water is removed from plant material, the microbial growth cannot be sustained and the herb lasts much longer. Our Water Content/Loss on Drying (LOD) test determines the percentage of moisture per mass.
Test now

Foreign Matter

R 200 per test
Like all medicinal herbal materials, Cannabis should be entirely free from contamination by anything that's not part of the plant. This includes moulds, insects, other animal contamination or excreta, other plants, soil, stones, etc. Some countries allow values as low as 2 ppm (0.0002%) for faecal matter or as high as 5% for mould or other foreign matter. Decide what is acceptable for your herb and we'll check it for you.
Test now
Total Ash

Total Ash

R 500 per test
Plants absorb inorganic compounds, like minerals. The amount of inorganic compounds in Cannabis flower can be influenced by the nature of the soil, cultivation conditions, and age of the plant. The total ash tests incinerates the water and organic material and measures the total remaining ash.
Test now
Residual Solvent Analysis

Solvent Analysis

R 400 per test
When doing solvent extractions (e.g. butane, ethanol, etc.) you want to be certain that all the solvent has been removed from the concentrated extract. This test checks for any remaining solvents in the product, enabling you to ensure the purest product possible. This is important for recreational users and critical for people who take Cannabis for medicinal reasons (as they take large quantities and their bodies are health compromised).
Test now
Testing for Microbial Impurities

Microbial Impurities

From R 240 per test
Herbal medicines are all subject to microbial contamination from soil, air and water. Microbial contamination of plant materials is mainly attributed to aerobic bacteria, enterobacteria (e.g. E. coli, Salmonella), yeast and mould. The development of the contaminants is influenced by environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, harvesting, handling and storage.
When testing medicines and related substances, microbial testing is outsourced to a 3rd party.
Test now
Pesticide Testing

Pesticides

From R 1 500 per test
Despite the fact that pesticides are harmful, many growers still use pesticides to improve their yields. Setting limits on the maximum levels of Pesticide Residues ensures that plants and their products are safe to use and ingest.
Please note our pesticide testing is done by a 3rd party.
Test now
Heavy Metals Testing

Heavy Metals

R 1 800 per test
Metals that have a high density or atomic weight are called “heavy” metals. The high degree of toxicity of these metals makes them significant with respect to health. Cannabis roots will absorb and retain these harmful metals as well as other chemical contaminants. As a standard, we test for: Arsenic (As), Cadmium (Cd), Lead (Pb), Mercury (Hg), Chromium (Cr) and Copper (Cu).
Please note our heavy metal testing is done by a 3rd party.
Test now
Testing for Mycotoxins

Mycotoxins

R 2 500 per test
Mycotoxins are toxic chemicals produced by fungi. Contamination can occur during growth, imperfect storage conditions, or as a result of contact with insects or rodents. We can test for Fumonisins, Aflatoxins, DON, Ochratoxin A, Nivalenol and Zearalenone.
Please note our mycotoxin testing is done by a 3rd party.
Test now
Testing for Sceletium alkaloids

Sceletium

R 2 500 per test
Sceletium testing gives you an overview of the potency of the alkaloids in your product. This test can be done on samples of any form, including plant material, extracts and tinctures.
Please note our sceletium testing is done by a 3rd party.
