In this video, the Health Ranger narrates a fascinating (and highly technical) screen capture walkthrough of a mass spec laboratory analysis of hemp extracts. This video covers:
- Retention time identification of cannabinoids on a chromatogram
- Mass discrimination extraction of targeted molecules from an ion-extracted chromatogram
- Creating a quantitation curve using known standards
- Quanting the concentration of cannabidiol in an unknown sample by using the quant curve
- Identifying THC-A and other lesser cannabinoids using a combination of retention time and mass discrimination
- Converting mass / volume units to arrive at final concentration for hemp extract product bottles
This CBD analysis method was developed at CWC Labs by the Health Ranger and his colleagues. It is being featured in an upcoming peer-reviewed science paper that will be published in a mainstream science journal.

Mike Adams (aka the "Health Ranger") is the founding editor of NaturalNews.com, a best selling author (#1 best selling science book on Amazon.com called "Food Forensics"), an environmental scientist, a patent holder for a cesium radioactive isotope elimination invention, a multiple award winner for outstanding journalism, a science news publisher and influential commentator on topics ranging from science and medicine to culture and politics.
Mike Adams also serves as the lab science director of an internationally accredited (ISO 17025) analytical laboratory known as CWC Labs. There, he was awarded a Certificate of Excellence for achieving extremely high accuracy in the analysis of toxic elements in unknown water samples using ICP-MS instrumentation.
In his laboratory research, Adams has made numerous food safety breakthroughs such as revealing rice protein products imported from Asia to be contaminated with toxic heavy metals like lead, cadmium and tungsten. Adams was the first food science researcher to document high levels of tungsten in superfoods. He also discovered over 11 ppm lead in imported mangosteen powder, and led an industry-wide voluntary agreement to limit heavy metals in rice protein products.
Adams has also helped defend the rights of home gardeners and protect the medical freedom rights of parents. Adams is widely recognized to have made a remarkable global impact on issues like GMOs, vaccines, nutrition therapies, human consciousness.
