General description

This Certified Spiking Solution® is suitable for CBGA testing methods by HPLC, LC/MS, or GC/MS for applications in the testing of Cannabis potency or impurity profiling, pharmaceutical research, and forensic analysis. Cerilliant solution Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) of cannabinoids are supplied in a convenient, quantitative, US DEA-exempt solution format and with TK#s for Canadian customers.
Cannabigerolic acid (CBGA) is one of the main cannabinoids that belongs to the class of C21 terpenophenolic compounds. A non-psychoactive cannabinoid, cannabigerolic acid (CBGA), is the precursor to THCA, CBDA, and CBCA cannabinoids in Cannabis. Cannabigerolic acid reportedly has efficacy in the treatment of cancer and schizophrenia.

Application

The Certified Reference Material (CRM) in solution can also be used as follows:
  • Multi-analysis of 11 cannabinoids in biomass and extracts of different cannabis varieties by an HPLC-UV method, following the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) Tripartite Guideline for Validation of Analytical Procedures
  • High-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC)- diode array detector (DAD) based quantification of eight cannabinoids in cannabis plant material
  • Determination of eight cannabinoids in hemp samples using reversed phase-high-pressure liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) in combination with UV detector
  • Extraction of nine cannabinoids from food and beverage samples having hemp seeds, oil, and flour as ingredients followed by their analysis by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-QTrap-tandem mass spectrometry LC/ESI‐QTRAP‐MS/MS
  • Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) based analysis of ten main cannabinoids from hemp inflorescences following their silylation and esterification for derivatization
  • Combination of UV and tandem mass spectrometric (MS/MS) detection with liquid chromatography (LC) for the analysis of major cannabinoids in 13 different cannabidiol-rich commercial products

Features and Benefits

  • Fully characterized under ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 17034 accreditation
  • Accompanied with a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (CoA) with data on stability, homogeneity, accuracy of concentration, uncertainty, and traceability
  • Rigorously tested through real-time stability studies to ensure accuracy and shelf life
  • Gravimetrically prepared using qualified precision balances to ensure minimal uncertainty
  • Flame sealed under argon into ampoules for long-term shelf life
  • Offered in a convenient, DEA-exempt format to improve laboratory efficiency

As the popularity of cannabis-infused products increases, there is a growing need to characterize the type and content of the cannabinoids found in the product. This application demonstrates the ability of the Ascentis Express C18 column to baseline resolve 14 structurally-similar cannabinoids, in under seven minutes, with excellent peak shape.

Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid A solution, 1.0 mg/mL in acetonitrile, ampule of 1 mL, certified reference material.

The cannabinoids found in the Cannabis plant commonly referred to as marijuana, have grown in popularity for treating a variety of ailments from arthritis, glaucoma, and chronic pain to malnutrition, multiple sclerosis, and cancer.

Protocols

Potency testing in marijuana-infused edibles is an important problem that analytical labs are facing due to the complexity of the involved matrices. Concentration of active ingredients in these edibles can range from a few parts per million to 3.5 parts per thousand. This application demonstrates the extraction and HPLC-UV analysis of the active compounds.
