Terpene Profiling
Although terpene profiling is not required by Health Canada, we know the terpene profile of a particular cannabis cultivar is a unique fingerprint and thus critical to your finished product’s performance and quality. Our labs utilize comprehensive gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analytical methods capable of profiling arrays of both mono- and sesquiterpenes.
We’re currently testing for the following 59 terpenes:
- α-pinene
- camphene
- β-pinene
- Δ-valerolactam
- Δ3-carene
- α-terpinene
- α-terpineol
- p-cymene
- limonene
- ocimene
- v-terpinene
- terpinolene
- farnesol
- octyl acetate
- piperitone
- linalool
