Hplc Testing
HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) testing is an analytical method used to measure and separate cannabinoid and terpene profiles in cannabis samples. Unlike simpler colorimetric or immunoassay tests, HPLC provides quantitative data on individual compounds—THC, THCA, CBD, CBDA, and minor cannabinoids—without requiring heat or chemical conversion. In breeding programs, HPLC results inform lineage documentation and phenotype selection by offering precise chemical fingerprints across generations. Breeders working toward stable cannabinoid ratios or novel minor-cannabinoid expression rely on HPLC data to validate crosses and track trait consistency.

HPLC testing enables breeders to identify and stabilize desirable cannabinoid ratios (1:1 CBD:THC crosses, high-CBD cultivars, THCV-dominant lines) and document how traits segregate in offspring. Precise quantification supports marker-assisted selection and helps establish chemotype consistency within a strain family across multiple generations.
