Here’s how you can confirm your hemp products are within legal THC limits

Although hemp extracts and hemp-derived products are legal on a federal level in the US, many commercially-available products exceed the permissible 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) concentration limit.

The following technical note demonstrates a rapid and robust method to determine the potency of 11 cannabinoids using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) together with ultra-violet (UV) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) detectors.

Characteristics of the method:

  • Simple—the sample preparation procedure is easily adaptable to a forensic sample preparation workflow
  • Efficient—avoids dilution and re-analysis issues, which results in a wider linear dynamic range
  • Accurate—reduces the rate of false positives for THC
  • Comprehensive—covers the entire 0.05-100% potency range
  • Reproducible— achieves consistent, high-quality quantitative potency results for cannabinoids in hemp-derived samples
