%X the present study analyzes the cannabinoids content in samples of cannabis sativa l. cultivated illicitly in colombia. the physicochemical conditions are optimized for the extraction and quantification of cannabidiol (cbd), 9-tetrahidrocannabinol (thc) and cannabinol (cbn) starting from a vegetable sample using gas chromatography with flame ionization detector (gc-fid), validating the respective analytic method. samples coming from four diferent colombian regions are analyzed (llanos orientales, ll; cauca, ca; sierra nevada de santa marta, sn; eje cafetero, ec). the study let determination of cbd, thc and cbn samples quantitatively. the average content of thc in the samples of the region ll is of 15.74% ¡À 2.92, in the region ca is of 10.98% ¡À 6.70, in the region sn is of 2.81% ¡À 1.72 and in the region ec of 1.87 % ¡À 1.25. the higher content of thc in vegetable samples of cannabis from the llanos orientales (ll) and cauca (ca) could be indicative of the employment of improved varieties. this fact generates a great concern about the potential effects produced by the drug in consumers.
