Original post in this thread

Have black seed from nootropics depotbut also have Blessed Seed oil and I recieved an email by them that my lot is high in PAHs and should be returned. Taking 3 teaspoons a day apparently is over the limit. What is dangerous about PAHS? Seems they are linked to stomach, and bladder cancer.
What they were answering

Over here talking about headspace GC-FID, you always know how to excite a lab rat lol. I really wish that you were closer, I think with your testing and the current cannabis industry there is a lot of money being left out. Even just looking at people who sell terpene blends, there's a lot of money left on the table. And a ton of innovation as well.

There really is not a lot of money in it, to be honest. There are so many shitty labs out there underbidding. People contact us at Omnient for quotes on testing, then say we are overpriced compared to the other quotes they got from some rando lab. Yeah, it's super cheap if you are not doing real chemistry and just giving fake COAs out! One place tried to say we needed to be at $25 per assay for one of their products... The machine I would be having that run on is a $150,000 machine. The lab tech that will be running it is making a high salary. I have to buy the reference standard to run the calibration curve with. Then I have to buy the solvents used in the assay, then pay for the waste solvents to be taken away and disposed of properly to meet EPA regulations. You think I can do all that for $25?!? Just asinine.
