Extraction of Cannabinoids in Marijuana and Edibles by QuEChERS
Application Notes UCT-SP02:
Medical marijuana has been legalized in multiple states across the USA [1]. As a result, many testing labs are seeking fast and reliable analytical methods to determine the cannabinoid potency in marijuana and cannabis infused foods (more informally known as edibles) [2]. This application utilizes the advantages of the QuEChERS technique to extract cannnabinoids in marijuana and cannabis containing foods. This is followed by either a dilution of marijuana samples or a solid phase extraction (SPE) cleanup for various complex food samples. This method results in clean extracts for instrumental detection.
