Accuracy vs Efficiency: Streamlining your Potency Processes for Cannabis Testing

Description:
Commercial laboratories that operate at high throughput will often attempt to streamline processes to increase their efficiency. While this can help the laboratory process more samples in a shorter amount of time, there is the potential that the efficiencies put in place will impact the accuracy of the data being produced. Laboratories must be aware of how their data will be impacted by the processes they implement and how much uncertainty will be introduced through these practices. This presentation will focus on providing laboratories with the knowledge needed to confidently identify when a process implemented to increase efficiency has a negative impact on the accuracy of the data being produced. While laboratories must consider how their practices will impact the results in each area of the laboratory, this presentation will place the spotlight on potency specifically, and the ways that laboratories may be unknowingly skewing their results. Additionally, guidance will be provided regarding various techniques that can be implemented to streamline potency testing, while still providing clients and consumers with data that is accurate, reproducible, and legally defensible.
