[1] Volledig gestandaardiseerde cannabis flos van farmaceutische kwaliteit is de hele, gedroogde bloem van de cannabisplant die genetisch en chemisch is gestandaardiseerd volgens farmaceutische normen met een gedefinieerde cannabinoïde en terpenen samenstelling. Het is ook vrij van verontreinigingen zoals microbiële verontreinigingen (schimmels en bacteriën) pesticiden (residuen), aflatoxinen, onzuiverheden en zware metalen.
[2] Terpenen zijn een belangrijk onderdeel van Cannabis sativa plant. Verantwoordelijk voor het aroma van de plant, terpenen kunnen ook synergetisch werken met de cannabinoïden. X
