Flavonoid Testing
Flavonoids are phytonutrients that account for up to 2.5% of the dry weight of cannabis flower. Also responsible for the flavor profile of foods, flavonoids impact the pigmentation, aroma, and overall characteristics of cannabis plants. While research has been limited, they are thought to be synergistic with cannabinoids and terpenes to produce what’s commonly referred to as “the entourage effect.” Utilizing LCMSMS, Anresco is capable of quantifying the presence of the following 14 flavonoids.
