National Institute of Standards and Technology | Hemp Reference Material to Support Accurate Cannabis Measurements @NIST | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
NIST's new Hemp Reference Material will help labs accurately measure the amount of THC in cannabis plant materials. This will help forensics labs accurately distinguish between hemp, which is legal in all 50 states, and marijuana, which is a controlled substance. It will also support accurate labeling of cannabis products and protect the health and safety of consumers.
