'This mold is common and presents a serious risk to facilities, workers and consumers.'
A July 1 memo from the statereminded licensed marijuana business owners that testing for aspergillus is now included in the state's mold and yeast test requirements, while potency testing has expanded into more forms of THC. The new rules took effect that day.
"The decision made by the [MED] to add aspergillus to its microbial testing requirements is a big step for the Colorado market. This mold is common and presents a serious risk to facilities, workers and consumers," Ellsworth says."This change shows that the industry is continuing to understand the risks of microbial contamination, and hints at the standardization of testing regulations to come.
The new potency tests were partially designed to help inform consumers about the total amount of THC in the products they purchase at dispensaries, according to the MED memo.
