Transcriptome assemblies for two drug-type cannabis chemotypes by long-read RNA sequencing. [PDF]
Abstract Cannabis sativa has undergone over 10,000 years of domestication, resulting in extensive genetic and phenotypic diversity among cultivated chemotypes. Increased medical and recreational use of specialized metabolites accumulating in cannabis glandular trichomes—primarily the cannabinoids ∆9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD)—has ...

Passive exposure to cannabidiol oil does not cause microbiome dysbiosis in larval zebrafish
The use of cannabidiol oil derived products has dramatically increased in popularity and is predicted to grow steadily over the next decade. Given its relative stability, cannabidiol is likely to accumulate in the environment and affect aquatic animals ...

Cannabis through the looking glass: chemo- and enantio-selective separation of phytocannabinoids by enantioselective ultra high performance supercritical fluid chromatography [PDF]
By using the Inverted Chirality Columns Approach (ICCA) we have developed an enantioselective UHPSFC method to determine the enantiomeric excess (ee) of (-)-Δ(9)-THC in medicinal marijuana (Bedrocan®).

Analyzing cannabinoid-induced abnormal behavior in a zebrafish model.
In this study, we investigated locomotor activity and responses to repeated light and dark stimuli to assess cannabinoid-induced abnormal behavior in zebrafish larvae (Danio rerio), as an alternative to standard rodent models.
