  • Patent number: 12029718
    Abstract: The present invention describes a method which outlines a process for conversion of CBD to a ?9-tetrahydrocannabinol (?9-THC) compound or derivative thereof involving treating a naturally produced CBD intermediate compound with an organoaluminum-based Lewis acid catalyst, under conditions effective to produce the ?9-tetrahydrocannabinol compound or derivative thereof at a relatively high concentration. The source of the CBD is from industrial hemp having less than 0.3% ?9-THC and extracting and purifying a CBD distillate or isolate or a combination thereof. This procedure will produce ?9-THC that is essentially free from any other cannabinoids other than some trace amounts of the initial CBD starting material, or about 95% ?9-THC and 2-4% CBD. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a process for further purification and enrichment of the ?9-THC using distillation and collecting an essentially pure fraction of ?9-THC using additional distillation or enrichment form of purification.

  • Patent number: 11998615
    Abstract: Compositions, methods, and kits are provided for treating bacterial infections with nanoparticles comprising a thiol-binding metallic core conjugated to a fluoroquinolone antibiotic. Recalcitrant infections are often difficult to treat because of the presence of persister cells, a subpopulation of bacterial cells that is highly tolerant of traditional antibiotics. Persister cells are dormant, which makes them less susceptible to many antibiotics, which are designed to kill growing cells. Administration of nanoparticles comprising a thiol-binding metallic core conjugated to fluoroquinolone antibiotics was found to be highly efficacious in eradicating persister cells and for treating infections for a broad range of bacterial species, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Such treatment was effective not only in eradicating planktonic bacteria but also bacteria in biofilms.
