Pesticide and Mycotoxin Analysis in Cannabis Brownies

Reliable and accurate results for pesticide and mycotoxin testing is of utmost importance for the safety of people consuming cannabis-derived products such as cannabis brownies and other edibles. Edibles are one of the most popular categories of consumption of cannabis-based products, and brownies are one of the most commonly consumed edible. Brownies contain high levels of potential interferences (carbohydrates and fats), so methods developed for this application will be a great starting point for similar matrices.

Restek has optimized strategies to provide a starting point for matrices similar to that of brownies through LC-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS. The method established by Restek for the analysis of pesticides and mycotoxins in cannabis brownies provided excellent results in terms of linearity, accuracy, precision, and limits of quantitation (LOQs).
