In this work the concentration of 9 cannabinoids, 6 neutral cannabinoids (THC, CBD, CBC, CBG, CBN and CBDV) and 3 acidic cannabinoids (THCA CBGA and CBDA), was used to identify the Italian legal marijuana retailers, reinforcing the idea that the practice of categorizing marijuana samples only using THC and CBD is inadequate. A high-performance liquid chromatography/high-resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for screening and simultaneously analyzing the nine cannabinoids in 161 hemp samples of commercial marijuana coming from four retailers located in different Italian cities. The hemp samples dataset was analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis.

Abstract
In this work the concentration of 9 cannabinoids, 6 neutral cannabinoids (THC, CBD, CBC, CBG, CBN and CBDV) and 3 acidic cannabinoids (THCA CBGA and CBDA), was used to identify the Italian legal marijuana retailers, reinforcing the idea that the practice of categorizing marijuana samples only using THC and CBD is inadequate. A high-performance liquid chromatography/high-resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for screening and simultaneously analyzing the nine cannabinoids in 161 hemp samples of commercial marijuana coming from four retailers located in different Italian cities. The hemp samples dataset was analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
