      [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”6. Does Digipath Labs Arizona screen for solvents?” css=””]Patients are increasingly opting for potent cannabis concentrates such as butter, hash oil, shatter, and wax. To make these products, cannabinoids and terpenes are often isolated from the cannabis plant using a solvent-based extraction process. The solvents are then eliminated from the concentrate using such methods as heat or pressure. This removal process is critical, as all of these solvents pose health risks for patients.<\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

        \n
