Residual Solvents

;

What we test

Residual solvents are a category of volatile hydrocarbons that can be detected after a solvent extraction has been performed in creating infused or concentrated products. These solvents help breakdown target compounds under regulated conditions and are widely used throughout many industries. The solvents mandated for testing in Nevada include propanes, butanes, and heptanes, and are utilized for their relatively low toxicity towards humans.

Why we test

Solvent extraction residues can impact the purity and quality of your product, altering its texture and consistency. Over the mandated limit, your sample will automatically fail for Residual Solvent testing. Using GMP systems and having effective Quality Control measures are vital for ensuring the purity of your product.

How we test

We use a Headspace Gas-Chromatography Flame Ionization Detector (HS-GC-FID) system to test for solvents. By heating our samples, we can volatilize and test the solvent released and quantify the amount of solvent present in each sample.
