Aspergillus, a 'plant-infecting and toxigenic fungi,' is commonly found in cannabis and hemp flowers and has led to recalls of contaminated weed products in California. The National Institutes of Health highlighted Aspergillus as a significant concern for cannabis users.
The California Department of Cannabis Control conducts mandatory and voluntary recalls for cannabis products contaminated with mold, particularly Aspergillus. Consumers are advised to check packaging for UID and batch numbers, disposing of or returning recalled products.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention note that most individuals inhale aspergillus spores daily without falling ill. However, contaminated cannabis products can pose health risks, emphasizing the importance of following recall instructions.
