At Aoxlab, we are leaders in Colombia and Latin America in specialized analysis of cannabinoids and terpenes, offering complete, reliable profiles.
Scientifically backed to support the development, quality control and commercialization of medicinal cannabis and industrial hemp products.
We have a robust analytical portfolio that includes precise quantification of the main cannabinoids (such as Δ9THC, Δ8THC, CBD, CBDV, CBDA, CBG, CBGA, CBN, CBC, THCV, among others) and a detailed terpene profile that allows characterizing the aroma, identity and therapeutic potential of each sample.
Our analyses are performed with state-of-the-art technology and under an internationally accredited quality system according to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standard, guaranteeing traceability, accuracy and regulatory compliance for exports, licensing and regulatory processes.
At Aoxlab we conduct tailor-made shelf life and stability studies, fundamental to support the safety, quality, efficacy and regulatory compliance of products.
Food, cosmetics, supplements, phytotherapeutics and medicinal cannabis. These studies allow us to scientifically define the time during which a product retains its properties under specific conditions, being a key requirement for sanitary registrations, national commercialization and export.
We have the infrastructure, technical knowledge and experience to develop:
Studies under normal conditions (real time)
Accelerated studies (Arrhenius model and predictive models)
Ongoing studies (continuous monitoring of batches in the market)
Thanks to our high storage capacity and the use of chambers with environmental monitoring and real-time telemetry, we ensure traceability, reliability and stability of each sample throughout the entire process. This allows us to rigorously comply with international guidelines such as Codex Alimentarius, FDA, ICH, ISO 16779, ASTM and other specific regulations by product category.
In addition, Aoxlab differentiates itself by offering a comprehensive and robust approach, by complementing stability studies with its own accredited analytical capabilities, which allows us to perform internally all the tests required during the study, such as:
Physicochemical analysis
Microbiological analysis
Nutritional profiles
Contaminants (heavy metals, pesticides, residual solvents)
Cannabinoids and terpenes
Allergens, moisture, color, pH, among many others
We design each study based on product requirements, its matrix, packaging, storage conditions and current regulations. We apply statistical analysis tools and mathematical models such as the Arrhenius equation, regression curves and specification criteria to estimate and validate shelf life in a scientific and reliable manner.
