MICRO/PATHOGEN TESTING

Microbiological testing cannabis and hemp are leafy greens that are susceptible to the growth of bacteria and fungi just like our food can be. Cannabis and hemp products in the handling or production phase can be subject to micro biological contamination if surfaces are not properly sanitized and personnel who handle these products are not taking the appropriate precautions for cleanliness. Green Analytics is a physician-run testing lab company with extensive experience in microbiology and how pathogens create risk for the patient and consumer.  We use the same PCR (polymerase chain reaction)  based methodology to protect the patient and consumers for certain pathogens that the hospitals and physician practices use to diagnose and treat patients. We employ a variety of testing methods in addition to PCR including traditional culture based plating methods to test for a variety of pathogens. These include yeast and mold, bacteria, such as E. coli and salmonella, and other pathogens, depending on the state and the market requirements. Feel free to review the pathogens tested in any specific market that we are located in by checking each state specific testing requirements on our website.  Our methods are ISO 17025 accredited and are designed and implemented to protect vulnerable populations, including the elderly, immunocompromised, and the consumer in every market we serve.
