Exclusive to NUMEDS LTD UK this cannabinoid home analysis KIT for under £100

Have you been dying to find out what you are actually smoking, Vaping, eating?…….

Now you can analyse the cannabinoid profile of your favourite strain or your amazing home grown. Our recent quote from a UK based laboratory was £280 for 1 test. Now you can do up to 8 test for £99 but only for a limited time.

The alpha-CAT method enables anyone, regardless of scientific background, to define the active cannabinoid profile in a wide range of medicinal materials (flowers, resins, concentrates, cosmetics, tinctures, edibles and most other cannabinoid containing products).

The kit includes everything required for between 2 and 8 tests.

Alpha-CAT is a Cannabinoid Analysis Tool which combines the simple analytical technique of thin-layer chromatography (TLC) with specific thin-layers and developing fluid.

Thanks to this new protocol the main active ingredients of the cannabis plant parts can be visualised due to a highly specific colouring reaction which represent the cannabinoids present in the sample of cannabis or cannabis product.

Alpha-CAT‘s method enables the detection and identification of six (6) of the main cannabinoids present in cannabis:

• Cannabidiol (CBD)
• Cannabinol (CBN)
• Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)
• Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV)
• Cannabigerol (CBG)
• Cannabichromene (CBC)

A minimal amount of material (0.1 gram) is needed per sample to provide a unique and effective way of analysing the cannabinoid profile in various mixtures such as plant parts of cannabis, trichome resins, oils, tinctures and edibles products (ice-creams, cookies, teas…).

alpha-CAT helps you assess the effect of any specific strain with:

• A THC and CBD reference chart for indication of strength and potency
• Chemotype / cannabinoid profile which categorizes the strain
• Chemotype-effect chart indicating the  pharmacological effect to be expected
• A symptom-cure guide helping to determine which strain best helps to alleviate specific symptoms.

THE FOLLOWING SHOULD BE SUPPLIED BY THE USER

• Samples of cannabis or cannabis products (e.g. cookies, ice, cake, etc.)
• A well ventilated working area (a fume hood connected to a filtering system is recommended)
• Digital weighing scale 

The alpha-CAT system solves the issues involved with simultaneously separating  cannabinoids in a simple, cost-effective way, providing a chemical profile for each sample. The alpha-CAT method separates some of the neutral and acidic cannabinoids which are rendered distinct from each other with bright colored spots.

The chemotype profile shows the number of cannabinoids and their relative concentrations. The higher the concentration the bigger and more intensely coloured the spot is. alpha-CAT gives the opportunity to determine the cannabinoids present in each material sample and reveals the  levels of each individual cannabinoid present in terms of its concentration.

The alpha-CAT method enables anyone, regardless of scientific background, to define the active cannabinoid profile in a wide range of medicinal materials (flowers, resins, concentrates, cosmetics, tinctures, edibles and most other cannabinoid containing products).

After colouring the TLC plate by dipping it in a dye solution colored spots will appear immediately. The number of different spots depends entirely on the plant used (genetics) and the environmental parameters during cultivation. The bigger the spot is, the higher is the concentration.

The combination of different spots is called the chemotype of this particular plant (strain). Samples derived from it, such as the dried flowers, edibles, oils and hashish will differ somewhat in composition and won’t show the same cannabinoid profile (or print). Each colored spot on the plate represents a cannabinoid.
