Abstract

The Cannabis plant and its products consist of an enormous variety of chemicals. Some of the 483 compounds identified are unique to Cannabis, for example, the more than 60 cannabinoids, whereas the terpenes, with about 140 members forming the most abundant class, are widespread in the plant kingdom. The term “cannabinoids” [note: “ ” represents a group of C21 terpenophenolic compounds found until now uniquely in Cannabis sativa L. (). As a consequence of the development of synthetic cannabinoids (e.g., nabilone [2], HU-211 [dexanabinol; ref. (3), or ajulemic acid [CT-3; ref. 4]) and the discovery of the chemically different endogenous cannabinoid receptor ligands (“endocannabinoids,” e.g., anandamide, 2-arachidonoylglycerol) (5,6), the term ’“phytocannabinoids’” was proposed for these particular Cannabis constituents (7).

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • More than 90 different cannabinoids have been reported in the literature, although some of these are breakdown products, and they are generally classified into 10 subclasses.

    “More than 90 different cannabinoids have been reported in the literature, although some of these are breakdown products (ElSohly and Slade, 2005; Brenneisen, 2007; Radwan et al., 2009; Fischedick et al., 2010) and they are generally classified into 10 subclasses (Brenneisen, 2007).”

  • Terpene yield and distribution in the plant vary according to numerous parameters, such as processes for obtaining essential oil, environmental conditions, or maturity of the plant.

    “Terpene yield and distribution in the plant vary according to numerous parameters, such as processes for obtaining essential oil, environmental conditions, or maturity of the plant (Meier and Mediavilla, 1998; Brenneisen, 2007).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
