Fast and easy achiral and chiral analysis of cannabinoids
(U)HPLC analysis of original composition of cannabis plant material is necessary for such purposes as phenotype determination and quality control of medical cannabis used for therapeutic treatment. For fast and secure results YMC developed robust (U)HPLC methods for RP and chiral LC. Also, challenging distinction between cannabigerol (CBG) and cannabidiol (CBD) are easily achieved. A solution for the chiral separation of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) isomers using YMC’s polysaccharide phase CHIRAL ART Amylose-C completes the set nicely.

Expert tip: Sample sovent
The sample solvent can have a significant impact on peak shape and therefore on the separation efficiency. Dissolving and injecting a sample in a solvent that is of higher elution strength than the mobile phase reduces the interaction of the sample molecules with the stationary phase. This can be reflected in the chromatogram by fronting, loss of resolution, peak splitting and retention time shift.
In this expert tip you will find general advice on the selection of the sample solvent as well as an example showing the effect of different solvents on the chiral separation oy Cyproconazol.
