Analysis of THC and CBD Content in Hemp Oil Using GC-FID and Hydrogen Carrier Gas
9 Feb 2019Hemp oil containing beneficial phytocannabionoids such as cannabidiol (CBD) but very low levels of the psychoactive compound tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) has become increasingly popular. For quality control of the product, the level of CBD and THC should be closely monitored. In this report, hemp oil samples were analyzed by the Shimadzu GC-2030 using H2 carrier gas and the concentrations of CBD and THC were determined.

Gas ChromatographyGas chromatography (GC) is an analytical technique used to separate and quantitate mixtures of small and volatile compounds. Gas chromatographs or GC systems include components such as GC columns, detectors, pumps and autosamplers. Choose from packed or capillary GC columns, flame ionization (FID), photoionization (PID) electron capture detectors and selective or non-selective detectors. Find the best gas chromatographs in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.CannabinoidsCannabinoids are compounds found in cannabis that have therapeutic effects, such as pain relief, anti-inflammatory properties, and potential neuroprotective benefits. Research into cannabinoids is growing, particularly in the fields of pain management, neurological diseases, and cancer treatments.

It is widely used in environmental testing, food safety, pharmaceuticals, and forensic science. GC is ideal for identifying and quantifying compounds that are gaseous or can be vaporized without decomposition.
