Most perishable products sold commercially in the United States undergo analytical testing to determine their life expectancy or “shelf life” under normal storage conditions before excessive deterioration occurs. Anresco has extensive expertise in testing protocols typically used in the food industry, in compliance with ICH stability guidelines (The International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use), and can also develop custom studies for cannabis-specific matrices. 

For example, we can quantify cannabinoid degradation over time controlling for various environmental factors including temperature, light exposure, humidity, and oxygen.  In doing so, a customer can make strategic decisions such as determining the optimum packaging and storage conditions for their product, in addition to generating data to ensure a consistent end-user experience.

Due to vast differences between products, professional input is required to ensure the appropriate analyses are performed and test schedule is developed.  Anresco’s senior analysts, many of whom have 30+ years of analytical experience, will take the time to get to know you and your products prior to developing a free custom proposal for you to consider.
