What is Alpha-Cat?

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 to 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 indicateing the pharmacological effect to be expected
A symptom-cure guide helping to determine which strain best helps to alleviate specific symptoms.

The following is required to use this test:

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 (Can be purchased from our Ebay store or website)

Analysis of the results can be found in more detail from the alpha-cat website
