Abstract: Disclosed herein are urushiol-containing epicutaneous patches comprising a support material and a urushiol-containing film on a surface of the support material. A surface of the support material is coated with the urushiol-containing film. Also described herein are test panels comprising urushiol-containing epicutaneous patches of varying urushiol content. The test panels can be employed in methods to assess subject sensitivity to urushiol, to determine a dose-response relationship to varying doses of urushiol, and to assess efficacy of treatments to prevent or inhibit urushiol-induced contact dermatitis in a subject.

Abstract: Biologically active cannabidiol analogs comprising a compound of the formula wherein one of R1 or R2 or both is/are the residue of a moiety formed by the reaction of an amino group of the amino acid ester of R1 or R2 or both with a dicarboxylic acid or a dicarboxylic acid derivative and the other R1 or R2 (in the case of the mono) is the residue of a dicarboxylic acid or dicarboxylic acid derivative or Hydrogen (H), (i.e. underivatized), and salts thereof. These CBD analogs are be useful in pain management in oncology and other clinical settings in which neuropathy is presented. Furthermore, these CBD-analogs are useful in blocking the addictive properties of opiates.

Abstract: ?9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (?9-THC or THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) are major constituents of the Cannabis plant that have pharmacological properties with potential therapeutic value. This invention is directed to processes for large scale isolation of these two and other cannabinoids from the Cannabis sativa plant. This is accomplished through the discovery that protected amino acid esters of the cannabinoids are easier to separate using normal phase silica column chromatography. Mild base hydrolysis of the esters regenerates the free cannabinoids in a purified form. The invention is also applicable to the isolation of other cannabinoids from Cannabis extracts.
