Description
JWH 250 N-(4-hydroxypentyl) metabolite-d
5 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of JWH 250 N-
(4-
hydroxypentyl) metabolite by GC-
or LC-
mass spectrometry. JWH 250 is a synthetic cannabinoid (CB) which potently activates both CB
1 and CB
2 receptors (K
i = 11 and 33 nM, respectively).
1 It has been identified in herbal blends.
2 JWH 250 N-
(4-
hydroxypentyl) metabolite is expected to be a cytochrome P450 phase I metabolite of JWH 250, detectable both in serum and urine.
