Silver nitrate powder, extra pure

Cannabis potency testing is performed using HPLC.  Acetonitrile from Spectrum Chemical exceeds ACS Specifications and HPLC Grade as a polar aprotic solvent in organic synthesis as well as a carrier (mobile phase) solvent in HPLC. Acetonitrile is a medium-polarity solvent with a convenient liquid range that is miscible with water, making it one of the most popular HPLC solvent choices.

The cannabis industry uses ICP-MS and AA to test for heavy metals. Nitric Acid, Ultratrace from Spectrum Chemical is a strong, highly corrosive mineral acid with extremely low metal content (over 50 with levels less than 100 PPT) ideal for this purpose due to its primary use as an analytical reagent in elemental analysis determinations using ICP and AA techniques, digestion of water samples, and as a doping agent for organic…
