General description

Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol, known as THC, is a C21 terpenophenolic compound and is the primary psychoactive cannabinoid present in cannabis and hemp.

Application

The Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol analytical standard can be used as follows:
  • Development and validation of a high-performance liquid chromatographic method coupled with UV detection to measure cannabidiol and ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol in rat plasma samples following their extraction by protein precipitation and liquid-liquid extraction (LLE)
  • Estimation of cannabidiol and ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol extracted from human plasma samples by liquid-liquid extraction using ultra-performance liquid chromatography with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry
  • Multi-residue analysis of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and its two degradation products, 11-hydroxy-Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol and 11-nor-9-carboxy-Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol, in whole blood samples by QuEChERS extraction and gas chromatography (GC) coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS)
  • Optimization of an ultra-high performance supercritical fluid chromatographic (UHPSFC) method, combined with a tandem mass spectrometer (MS/MS) to determine ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol, along with three of its major metabolites and four synthetic metabolites in wastewater samples following liquid-liquid extraction
  • Development and validation of an ultra high-performance liquid chromatographic (UHPLC) method coupled to photodiode array and mass spectrometry detectors to determine 11 cannabinoids in various Cannabis Sativa samples

Cannabinoid receptor agonists enhance the antinociceptive effects of μ-opioid receptor agonists, which suggests that combinations of these drugs might enhance therapeutic effectiveness (e.g., analgesia). However, it is not clear whether combinations of these drugs also enhance abuse or dependence liability.

Recent evidence has implicated the endocannabinoid (eCB) system in nicotine addiction. The eCB system also has an important role in reward mechanisms, and nicotine addiction has been associated with aberrant reward processing. Motivated by this evidence, we tested the hypothesis
