Event Overview: Accurate potency testing is a challenging task because hemp products take many forms, consisting of thousands of different compounds. Sample preparation is an important aspect of consideration to deliver accurate analyses. Typically, liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (LC-UV) is used for potency testing to ensure hemp product quality. Labs in an industrial setting need to implement this testing in the shortest time possible. In this webinar, Dr Marjeta Česen, Chief Regulatory Affairs Officer at Pharmahemp, will discuss how an in-house validated LC-UV potency method was used to benchmark a new commercially available potency-testing kit and associated workflow. The comparison of the methods used the same LC-UV systems to allow a like-for-like comparison.

Key Learning Objectives:

  • Why the hemp and cannabis industries need to undertake rigorous potency testing
  • Understand how LC-UV is used for the determination of cannabinoids in hemp products
  • Understand the how speed of analysis and chromatographic resolution of cannabinoids can be improved for use in a routine laboratory setting

Speakers: Dr Marjeta Česen, Chief Regulatory Affairs Officer, Pharmahemp, Slovenia

Manipulating Cannabis Genetics: Pulling Levers to Increase  Phytochemical Composition
Cannabis genetics fundamentally dictate the plant's potential for chemical signatures, including cannabinoid and terpene profiles, and physical traits, such as yield. Cultivators use selective techniques, such as "stacking," to enhance specific compounds. Ultimately, successful cultivation involves balancing superior genetics with environmental "levers" to optimize gene expression and create targeted strains.
