Abstract

A cGMP-compatible phytofunctional composition formed from a cannabis source or a hemp source is disclosed. The phytofunctional composition comprises a plurality of native organic acids and one or more native terpenes obtained from the cannabis source or hemp source. One or more ratios between the native organic acids present in the cannabis source or hemp source and corresponding ratios present in the phytofunctional composition are substantially similar. One or more source-linked cannabinoid profiles, cannabinoid-acid profiles, terpene profiles, chromatographic profiles, spectroscopic profiles, volatile profiles, or combinations thereof are preserved within a selected analytical tolerance. The phytofunctional composition is substantially free of degradation-generated neutral cannabinoids, decarboxylated byproducts, microbial contamination, mold, mildew, fungus, pesticides, heavy metals, residual solvents, exogenous cannabinoids, exogenous terpenes, isolate spikes, diluents, carrier oils, reconstructed profile markers, or combinations thereof.

Dependent claims

A cGMP-compatible phytofunctional composition formed from a cannabis source or a hemp source, the phytofunctional composition comprising:

(A) a plurality of native organic acids from the cannabis source or hemp source, wherein the plurality of native organic acids can degrade, decarboxylate, decompose, oxidize, or transform when exposed to elevated temperatures during extraction, drying, formulation, storage, transportation, or processing;
(B) one or more native terpenes from the cannabis source or hemp source that can degrade, decarboxylate, decompose, oxidize, volatilize, or transform during extraction, drying, formulation, storage, transportation, or processing;
and optionally,
(C) a solvent;
wherein one or more ratios between the plurality of native organic acids present in the cannabis source or hemp source and one or more corresponding ratios between the plurality of native organic acids present in the phytofunctional composition are substantially similar;
wherein one or more source-linked cannabinoid profiles, cannabinoid-acid profiles, terpene profiles, chromatographic profiles, spectroscopic profiles, volatile profiles, or combinations thereof are preserved within a selected analytical tolerance;
and
wherein the phytofunctional composition is substantially free of:
degradation-generated neutral cannabinoids, decarboxylated byproducts, oxidation products, decomposition products, microbial contamination, mold, mildew, fungus, spores, mycotoxin-associated markers, aflatoxin-associated markers, pesticides, heavy metals, residual solvents, exogenous cannabinoids, exogenous terpenes, cannabinoid isolate spikes, terpene isolate spikes, diluents, cutting agents, carrier oils, masking agents, reconstructed profile markers, or combinations thereof.

6 more elements

A finished cGMP-compatible phytofunctional composition formed from a documented cannabis source or documented hemp source, the finished phytofunctional composition comprising a plurality of native cannabinoid acids or native organic acids from the cannabis source or hemp source, wherein the documented cannabis source or documented hemp source is associated with source-fingerprint data and the finished phytofunctional composition is associated with output-fingerprint data;

wherein one or more source-linked cannabinoid-acid profiles, raw cannabinoid profiles, acid-to-neutral cannabinoid relationships, chromatographic profiles, spectroscopic profiles, mass-spectrometric profiles, multivariate analytical profiles, or combinations thereof are preserved within a selected analytical tolerance relative to the source-fingerprint data associated with the documented cannabis source or documented hemp source;
and
wherein THC is absent, non-detected, or present below a selected release threshold;
wherein residual processing solvent is absent, non-detected, or present below a selected residual-solvent release threshold;
wherein the finished phytofunctional composition is substantially free of one or more designated adulterants, undocumented plant-source inputs, non-source-matching cannabinoids, cannabinoid isolate spikes, contamination markers, degradation markers, oxidation products, reconstructed profile markers, or combinations thereof;
and wherein the finished phytofunctional composition is analytically consistent with the documented cannabis source or documented hemp source based on comparison of the source-fingerprint data and the output-fingerprint data.
