§ II — Analytical Panel

A complete mycology testing suite.

Six analytical pillars, every method validated and accredited. Bundle them or pick what your product actually needs — we'll tell you straight.

01HPLC-UV / LC-MS

Psilocybin & Psilocin Potency

Quantitative w/w analysis of psilocybin, psilocin, baeocystin, and norbaeocystin. Defensible reports for cultivators, formulators, and clinical-grade producers.

LOQ 0.01% · RSD < 3%
02ITS DNA Barcoding

Species Identification

Genetic confirmation of Psilocybe, Lion's Mane, Reishi, Turkey Tail, Cordyceps and other functional species — sequence-matched against curated reference libraries.

Confidence ≥ 98%
03qPCR + Plate

Microbial Contaminants

Total yeast & mold, aerobic count, coliforms, E. coli, Salmonella, and Aspergillus speciation. Critical for ingested mushroom products and tinctures.

Per USP <61>/<62>
04ICP-MS

Heavy Metals

Lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic. Mushrooms bio-accumulate — knowing your substrate's heavy metal load isn't optional. We test it like it matters.

ppb-level sensitivity
05LC-MS/MS

Pesticides & Mycotoxins

Full multi-residue pesticide panel and aflatoxin / ochratoxin A screening. Required for any product going into a body — recreational or clinical.

200+ analytes
06aW / Shelf-Life

Water Activity & Stability

Water activity, moisture, and accelerated shelf-stability studies for capsules, chocolates, gummies, tinctures, and dried fruiting bodies.

ASTM-aligned protocol
§ III — Why Nordic

Lab work you can stake your product on.

Mushroom testing is a young industry full of fast actors and thin methodologies. We've been running calibrated chemistry on Colorado's regulated market since 2014. The discipline carries over.

§ V — Cannabis & Hemp

A decade of regulated cannabis chemistry — still on the bench.

Nordic Analytical was built on Colorado's recreational and medical cannabis program: full state-mandated panels including cannabinoid potency, residual solvents, microbials, heavy metals, pesticides, mycotoxins, water activity, terpenes, and shelf stability. Same accreditation. Same turnaround. Same lab.
