Rapid and Comprehensive Analysis of Cannabinoid Potency by HPLC/UV using the Ascentis Express C18 Column

Cannabinoids are a class of psychoactive and nonpsychoactive compounds produced in the Cannabis (marijuana) plant. In recent years, these compounds have shown potential therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of pain, mood disorders, and inflammatory diseases.
