Elevated Standards is a leading cannabis testing laboratory in Illinois, committed to ensuring the safety and purity of cannabis products through rigorous pesticide testing. Our mission is to assist manufacturers and grow facilities in meeting Illinois’s stringent regulatory requirements by identifying and quantifying pesticide residues. This not only protects consumer health but also enhances the credibility and marketability of cannabis products.
The Importance of Pesticide Testing
Pesticides are widely used in agriculture to protect crops from pests and diseases. However, their residues can remain on cannabis and pose serious health risks to consumers, including potential carcinogenic effects and other long-term health issues. Illinois cannabis regulations require thorough testing for a broad spectrum of pesticide residues to ensure products are safe and free from harmful levels of these chemicals. Elevated Standards employs sophisticated analytical methods, such as Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS), to detect and quantify pesticide residues with precision and accuracy.
Our Pesticide Testing Process
Our comprehensive pesticide testing process starts with a meticulous sampling method to ensure that our analysis accurately represents the product batch. Using advanced LC-MS/MS and GC-MS techniques, we can screen for hundreds of pesticides at parts per billion (ppb) levels, offering detailed insight into the safety and purity of the tested products. Our testing protocols are designed to meet the rigorous standards set by the Illinois Department of Agriculture, ensuring compliance with all state regulations.
