Dear Valued Colleague,
Zacariah L. Hildenbrand, Ph.D.Chief Scientific OfficerC4 Laboratories, LLC
Thank you for selecting C4 Laboratories. Our goal at C4 is to provide reliable data that is interpreted within the appropriate physiological context, to ultimately empower patients to use cannabis medicine more effectively. The data within this report are the result of various analytical methods that have been developed by the team of scientists at C4 Laboratories. For the characterization and quantification of 21 terpene compounds and residual solvents we use Head-‐Space Gas Chromatography with Flame Ionization Detection (HS-‐GC-‐FID). Additionally, Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography (UHPLC) is used for the characterization and quantification of the 10 major phytocannabinoids found in cannabis. All data are collected in concert with proper quality assurance/quality control measures (QA/QC), including the use of intermittent analytical blanks, sample spikes, and commercial standards.
As an additional measure of quality control, we provide a historical reference (when available) to analytical results from an equivalent strain of cannabis/cannabis product to draw comparison. We understand that within an individual strain that results may vary as a result of variances in sample homogeniety, analytical methodology, crop conditions, genetic drift, and/or gene flow during hybridization. However, such a comparison can provide valuable insight into sample integrity and/or the phenotypic identity of the analyzed sample.
Additionally, we have interpreted all data within the physiological context provided to us by the growing body of peer-‐reviewed scientific research studies. Key factors to consider when determing how to most appropriately use a particular strain of cannabis include, but are not limited to, an evaluation of the possible cannabinoid/terpene synergies and an analysis of the various cannabinoid ratios, particular the CBD-‐A/THC-‐A and CBG/CBN ratios.
Thank you again for your confidence in C4 Laboratories. We strive to be an authority on cannabis education, targeted therapies and patient protection. Also, as a research laboratory, we hope to discover novel cannabis constituents through our efforts with academic research programs in the C4 Cannabinomics Collaborative. For more information about how you can collaborate with our research team please visit our website at www.c4lab.com.
It is important to note that when analyzing cannabis there can exist natural variablity of cannabinoid and terpene concentrations within individual plants. Cannabinoid concentrations in cannabis flower have been found to increase distally with respect to the root mass. As such, the analysis of multiple samples from any plant of interest is recommended.

Dear Mr. Pruitt,
Within this report you will find interpretations of the water quality data resulting from the analyses of your well water performed by TTI Environmental Laboratories. The samples were preserved and prepared as per methodology approved by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Briefly, detection and quantification of volatile and semi-volatile compounds was performed using EPA method 8260B. Additionally, the quantification of metal species and water anions was performed using EPA methods 200.7 and 300A, respectively. All determinations were executed using EPA approved methods and the resulting data has undergone a thorough review and is deemed accurate and complete.
If you have any questions about the water quality data and/or the interpretations of the data, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected] or 915-694-7132.
