ANAB provides accreditation for laboratories that perform analytical testing of cannabis and cannabis-derived products, including oils, edibles, drinks, concentrates, flowers, butters, and waxes, and hemp and products derived from hemp. Testing of cannabis products is necessary to demonstrate that they are safe for consumption and free from harmful levels of contaminants.
