Unveiling the Truth Behind KCC Product Testing
Transparency and Quality Assurance at Kentucky Cannabis Company
Discover how Kentucky Cannabis Company ensures the highest standards of safety and quality through rigorous third-party testing. Our commitment to transparency guarantees that every product meets the strictest criteria for cannabinoid profiles and safety.
The Importance of Third-Party Testing
Product Testing: Science, Integrity, and Transparency
At Kentucky Cannabis Company, every batch is verified by rigorous science. We operate an in-house quality lab using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) for precise cannabinoid quantification and quantitative PCR (qPCR) for targeted microbial screening. Then, we validate our findings with independent, ISO-accredited third-party laboratories. The result is consistency you can trust—products that routinely demonstrate one of the most complex natural cannabinoid profiles in the industry.
In-House Analytical Controls
- HPLC Cannabinoid Profile: Accurate quantification of CBD, CBDA, CBG, CBGA, CBC, CBN, trace THC (≤ 0.3%), and other naturally occurring cannabinoids to preserve true full-spectrum integrity.
- qPCR Microbial Screening: Targeted genetic assays to detect and trend potential microbial concerns prior to release.
- Release Specifications: Internal acceptance criteria for potency and purity ensure what’s on the label matches what’s in the bottle.
Third-Party Validation
Independent labs provide objective confirmation of our in-house results. Routine third-party panels include:
- Potency & Terpene Profile: Confirmation of cannabinoid diversity and terpene fingerprinting for authentic full-spectrum character.
- Contaminant Screening: Pesticides, heavy metals, mycotoxins, residual solvents, and microbial impurities.
- COA Transparency: Batch-matched Certificates of Analysis (COAs) are made available so customers and partners can verify results.
Why Testing Matters
Full-spectrum efficacy depends on consistent cannabinoid diversity and clean manufacturing. By combining in-house HPLC/qPCR controls with third-party verification, we safeguard purity, potency, and repeatability—delivering safe, effective products backed by data, not claims.
How to Read Our COAs
- Check the Batch: The COA batch number should match the product label.
- Review Potency: Confirm total cannabinoids and that label claims fall within the laboratory’s acceptable variance.
- Scan Safety Panels: Ensure “Pass/Compliant” for pesticides, heavy metals, microbial impurities, mycotoxins, and residual solvents.
- Verify Lab Credentials: Look for ISO/IEC 17025 or equivalent accreditation on the report.
Our Rigorous Testing Process
At Kentucky Cannabis Company, every product undergoes a comprehensive testing process conducted by independent laboratories. This ensures that our full-spectrum CBD products are consistent in quality and free from contaminants. Our testing confirms the presence of beneficial cannabinoids like CBC, CBG, and CBDV, while guaranteeing the absence of harmful substances.
Certificates of Analysis: A Commitment to Transparency
We provide Certificates of Analysis (COAs) for each batch of products, accessible online for complete transparency. These documents detail the cannabinoid and terpene profiles, confirming the safety and efficacy of our offerings. By sharing these results, we empower our customers with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions.
Ensuring Quality and Safety
Our dedication to quality assurance is unwavering. Through stringent testing protocols, we maintain the highest standards in the industry.
