Fast, low-solvent analysis of cannabinoids increases lab productivity and decreases solvent costs

25 Feb 2020

In the highly competitive cannabis testing market, labs that can expand services while decreasing costs have a strong advantage. High-demand tests such as potency testing and cannabinoid profiling can be improved by increasing speed, expanding analyte lists, and reducing costs. In this application note, Restek demonstrates a rapid, low-solvent analysis method that aims to fully resolve 19 cannabinoids that only uses 3 mL of accetonitrile per run. Using this method promises more accurate potency results and significantly reduced solvent costs.

Raptor™ ARC-18 LC Columns

Restek Corp.

The Raptor™ ARC-18 column is made specifically for high-throughput, low–sample prep LC-MS/MS applications. A well-balanced retention profile offers better detection and integration of large, multiclass analyte lists, and steric protection helps this SPP column endure the harsh, low-pH mobile phases needed for mass spec without sacrificing retention or peak quality.
