CANNABIS, CBD & HEMP TESTING SERVICES
POTENCY TESTING
POTENCY TESTING
Accurate determination of cannabinoid concentrations in cannabis and CBD samples is one of the important components of cannabis & CBD testing. ACS determines 22 different cannabinoids and quantifies the level to a specific amount.
MICROBIOLOGY PANELS
MICROBIOLOGY PANELS
Similar conditions for growth of cannabis are ideal for the germination of microorganisms and bacteria. If cannabis is not tested properly, it may contain contaminants that are harmful for human consumption.
HEAVY METAL SCREENING
HEAVY METAL SCREENING
Cannabis collects heavy metals. It absorbs heavy metals from the soil, water and air. ICPMS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry) testing is the gold standard.
MYCOTOXINS
MYCOTOXINS
Mycotoxins are contaminants that naturally occur in molds and fungi, which decompose organic matter. You can find molds that contain mycotoxins in a variety of crops such as nuts, spices, apples and coffee beans.

FLAVONOIDS TESTING
FLAVONOIDS TESTING
Flavonoids are phytonutrients most important for plant pigments, flower coloration, taste, smell and overall sensory experience. They are a high level of nutrients and are found in many common foods consumed today.
PAH TESTING
PAH TESTING
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are chemicals that transform into pollutants when coal, oil, gas, wood, garbage and tobacco are burned.
TERPENE PROFILING
TERPENE PROFILING
Terpenes are produced in trichromes (where THC is produced) and give cannabis its distinctive flavor and aroma. Terpenes also act as essential, medicinal hydrocarbon building blocks, influencing the overall homeopathic effect.
MOISTURE CONTENT/WATER ACTIVITY
MOISTURE CONTENT/WATER ACTIVITY
Hemp and cannabis plants need water to grow and thrive, and yet your final products must be stripped of most moisture in order to guarantee safety.
RESIDUAL SOLVENTS
RESIDUAL SOLVENTS
Residual solvents are leftover chemicals from the process used to extract cannabinoids and terpenes from the plant. The solvents are evaporated to prepare high-concentration oils and waxes.
PESTICIDE SCREENING
PESTICIDE SCREENING
Pesticides are used in commercial cannabis grow operations to kill insects and spiders that thrive on cannabis plants. Pesticides are carcinogenic and mutagenic, causing serious harm to cannabis consumers, especially immuno-compromised medicinal cannabis users.
MICRONUTRIENT TESTING
MICRONUTRIENT TESTING
Plants extract from the air, water and soil many elements essential for nutrition and growth. Micronutrients are mineral elements consumed in trace amounts, as compared to macronutrients that are needed in larger amounts, that are essential for robust growth and health.
SPECIALIZED PRODUCT TESTING
Caribbean Gold Labs also provides other specialized product testing.
VITAMIN E ACETATE
VITAMIN E ACETATE
More than a thousand people across the U.S. have reported lung-related illnesses related to vaping and 34 people have died.
TRANSDERMAL PATCH TESTING
TRANSDERMAL PATCH TESTING
Transdermal Patches are growing in popularity as a preferred alternative to smoking or ingesting, due to their superior dosing control, slower release and increased bioavailability.
BEVERAGE TESTING
BEVERAGE TESTING
Testing Nano Emulsions
CGL tests nano emulsion beverages to determine the potency of cannabinoids like THC and CBD. These solutions contain evenly dispersed microparticles that CGL is uniquely qualified to detect.
We ensure your beverage label is accurate & compliant.
NANO TESTING
NANO TESTING
CGL tests nanotechnology cannabis consumables with an award-winning methodology.
TOPICALS TESTING
TOPICALS TESTING
Our methods are proven and we guarantee precision. Before testing topicals for potency, we meticulously extract the delicate cannabinoids from the product.
CONCENTRATES TESTING
CONCENTRATES TESTING
CGL tests cannabis concentrates for dangerous pesticides, molds, mildew, heavy metals and mycotoxins. In order to validate safety, each lab result is labeled as pass or fail, making it easy to know if a product has reached the maximum allowed limit for each toxin.
EDIBLES TESTING
EDIBLES TESTING
Our methods overcome the challenges of edibles testing and guarantee precision.
VAPE TESTING
VAPE TESTING
CGL tests vapes for dangerous residual solvents, pesticides, molds, mildew, heavy metals and mycotoxins. We know the most common toxins and the maximum allowed levels of each.
SHELF LIFE AND STABILITY TESTING
SHELF LIFE AND STABILITY TESTING
Customers shop for brands whose products they trust. The products should contain high-quality ingredients that match the label and are safe to consume.
