You have done your research and have decided that you want to try a product that includes cannabinoids in your sex product. How do you decide which brand or product you should purchase?
Most products on the market designed to help improve your sex life, claim they use the best ingredients, but the best brands back that claim up with robust testing by certified labs of their finished products. Even more brands share only the Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for their source CBD oil - often only showing potency, but do not test, or make available testing for containments that may be present in the product. You should always look for brands that provide CoA's that test for potency, as well as for containments, for every batch produced.
oOYes always uses the finest ingredients in its products. From our Secret Sauce, to the aphrodisiacs, oils, flavoring and cannabinoids, we source all of our ingredients from the best suppliers. We only source our cannabinoids from state approved hemp producers in Colorado or California, of which is tested for potency and containments throughout every stage of the production process. oOYes then completes full potency, containment and PH balance (we want to make sure our products don't affect your vagina's PH balance) testing on every single batch of product produced for your pleasure!
What is a Certificate of Analysis or COA?
Laboratory reports are commonly referred to as "Certificates of Analysis" or "CoA's" for short. The CoA is a document issued by a licensed third-party laboratory that presents the authenticated analytical results of a specific test on a product.
How do I find the test result (COA) for my batch from oOYes?
We make finding your result easy and can be done in a few short steps:
Find the batch number for your product.
Scan the QR code on the package, or follow this link to visit our product results page.
Click the link to jump to the product, or scroll down to find the product.
Find the associate batch and click on the batch number to pull up a PDF of the result!
Alternatively, you can use the search tool (Control + F) and search the batch number.
If you haven't purchased yet, the most recent batch currently being sold on our online store is at the top of the table of results!
Where can I find the batch number?
The product batch number and best by date is stickered to the bottom of the box or tin as shown below.
How do I get to the product testing - Certificate of Analysis (COA) - page?
Scan the QR code on the package, follow the link or navigate to the site from our menu or footer.
Product testing from the Menu - Access from the Menu Tab.
How do I read a Certificate of Analysis?
While we have established that reviewing third party laboratory results is essential to make sure you are purchasing what is advertised, and that it is free of containments. However, unless you are a trained chemist, you will likely struggle to read must test results. We researched labs to find a third-party partner that always provides accurate, certified results, but also presents the report in an easy to comprehend report. We built this hand guide to help you find what we think are most important information on the lab reports provided, but if you would like a more detailed guide, please refer to Botanacor Labs.
Sample Information
The Sample information is the first section at the top of each CoA page that reports the product, batch, and type of test being reported.
Product Name: Confirm that the product name matches the name of the product you are researching. The product name is listed right under the Botanacor labs logo and matches the name of the sample on the Chain of Custody form.
Batch ID: Confirm that the batch ID matches the batch you are researching. This batch ID should match the batch number on your product and is usually a 8 digit number with the format "xxxxxx-xx."
Type: We submit our final product being packaged and this will always read "Unit." The results are based on the total weight of product sold per bottle/tin.
Test: This highlights the type of test performed.
Test information
The second section of the CoA contains the data for the type of test preformed. oOYes reports will have the following test:
Cannabinoid Potency
Donut Chart - The donut chart will display each cannabinoid reported, including mg of CBD or CBG.
Bar Chart - The bar chart is mainly for compliance purposes. It presents the delta-9 THC, THCA, CBD, and CBDA.
Compound - The test results are listed by each analyte (cannabinoid) tested on the sample.
LOQ - LOQ means, "Limits of Quantitation." This is the lowest level that can be accurately quantitated for each analyte (cannabinoid) tested.
Result (%) - Reports the percentage of the analyte (cannabinoid) reported in a percentage format.
Result (mg/g) - Displays the the milligrams per gram (mg/g) for each analyte (cannabinoid) reported.
Total Cannabinoids - Presents the sum of THC and THCA and the sum of CBD and CBDA which is the total "potential use" THC or CBD once theoretically converted.
Residual Solvent Analysis
Compound- Refers to the residual solvent tested.
Reportable Range - Each solvent that we test has an upper and lower range of detection that is reported in ppm or parts per million (the unit of measure for residual solvent analysis.
Microbial Contamination
Test - The potential microbial contaminant that the test is detecting in the sample. In addition to the microbial's required to be tested by the state of Colorado, oOYes additionally test for both Listeria monocytogenes and Staphylococcus aureus (staph infection).
CFU - Colony Forming Unit. The unit of measure for microbial contamination testing.
Result - Reports that the result is not detected or passed the threshold of containments allowed by the state.
Pesticides
Compound - The potential pesticide residue the sample was tested.
PPB - parts per billion, which is the unit of measurement for the test.
Result (ppb) - the amount or residual pesticide in the sample, reported in ppm or "none detected."
Heavy Metals
Compound - The potential residual heavy metals the sample was tested.
PPM - parts per million, which is the unit of measurement for the test.
Reporting limit - 0.01ppm
Result - reported in ppm, the amount of residual solvent in the sample.
pH Testing
pH balance is the measure-of acidic/basic in the product. Learn more about the pH balance and its important to sex in ph Balance for the best vaginal health.
Final Approval
The third section of the CoA is the final approval signed by the analyst that completed the test and the Quality Assurance (QA) Analyst.
Prepared by/Date - The signature, name, date and time of the analyst that completed the test.
Approved by/Date - The signature, name, date and time of the quality assurance analyst that reviewed the data.
What is different about testing for Unplugged and WET?
Unplugged and WET are both products that do not contain hemp derived cannabinoids, and those laboratory results are tested under different conditions. Because they do not have hemp derived cannabinoids, these products are able to be regulated properly by Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and conform to the testing standards of FDA regulated products.
WET dry mouth lozenges
We are very proud that our WET lozenges are produced in one of the best credentialed confectionaries in the United States. The production facility is registered with the US FDA pursuant to the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act (FD&C), including completing all standards of production and testing required by the act.
Additionally, the facility has maintained additional accreditations, that set it apart as a safe producer of food products. The facility has a level 2 certification with the SQF Institute, recognized by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI), and ANAB accreditation with the ANSI National Accreditation Board. While oOYes is supplied full containment and nutritional testing, the manufacturer has asked that we do not publish the results.
