How it works

The HPLC tests separate the named cannabinoids and measure them against reference standards. Liquid chromatography can measure the acid forms (such as CBDA and THCA) separately from the neutral forms, because it does not use the heated inlet of gas chromatography, which converts acid forms; a total is then calculated from the measured forms. Sample preparation follows the procedure agreed at quote.

The THC isomers and HHC forms included, and whether they are reported individually or as totals, are agreed at quote to match your specification.

Tests offered

Total cannabidiol (CBD) by HPLC

Measures cannabidiol (CBD) and its acid form, cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), by HPLC and reports total CBD, with CBDA converted to its CBD equivalent by the ratio of their molecular weights. Each form can also be reported.

Total delta-9-THC by HPLC

Measures delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC) and its acid form, THCA, by HPLC and reports total delta-9-THC, with THCA converted to its delta-9-THC equivalent by the ratio of their molecular weights. Each form can also be reported.

Total delta-THC isomers and HHC by HPLC

Measures THC isomers such as delta-8, delta-9 and delta-10 THC, and hexahydrocannabinol (HHC), by HPLC. The forms included are agreed at quote and reported individually or as totals, as your specification states.

Cannabinoids content by HPLC

Measures a panel of named cannabinoids by HPLC and reports each. The cannabinoids in the panel are agreed at quote.
