The results obtained were processed according to an untargeted metabolomics approach. Besides tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol, other 30 cannabinoids were identified for the first time in hemp seed oil. Their cannabinoid profile was evaluated by a liquid chromatography method coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry. In the present work, we analyzed the chemical profile of ten commercially available organic hemp seed oils. However, it is of utmost importance to consider that its healthy properties are strictly related to its chemical composition, which varies depending not only on the manufacturing method, but also on the hemp variety employed. Its importance for human health is reflected by the success on the market of organic goods in recent years. Hemp seed oil is well known for its nutraceutical, cosmetic and pharmaceutical properties due to a perfectly balanced content of omega 3 and omega 6 polyunsaturated fatty acids. 3Department of Health, Animal Science and Food Safety, University of Milan, Milan, Italy.2CNR NANOTEC, Institute of Nanotechnology, Lecce, Italy.1Department of Life Sciences, University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Modena, Italy.Cinzia Citti 1,2*, Pasquale Linciano 1, Sara Panseri 3, Francesca Vezzalini 1, Flavio Forni 1, Maria Angela Vandelli 1 and Giuseppe Cannazza 1,2*
