California

California is America’s largest and oldest legal cannabis market. The California Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR) regulates mandatory cannabis testing, which was first enforced in 2018, to identify residual pesticides and solvents in cannabis products. Analytical cannabis reference testing standards set the bar clearly, so you can adhere to the guidance of the Department of Cannabis Control (DCC).

Cannabis products need to be tested for more than 100 contaminants. 66 of them are pesticides that need an accurate baseline, which you can get from Peak Performance pesticide testing standards for cannabis. We also carry residual solvent testing standards in addition to pesticide testing materials for cannabis, both of which are designed specifically to meet State of California regulations, that can be delivered automatically to your lab so you can spend more time analyzing samples and less time ordering supplies.

Every standard includes a Certificate of Analysis (COA) so you know exactly what you’re testing against, and you have a trail of records showing your adherence to the regulations.
