Tetrahydrocannabinol (∆9-THC) oil was obtained through a solvent extraction procedure that demonstrated its acidic nature. Following alteration, changes in acid and specific gravity were noted. In order to improve the oxidative stability, elementary iodine was incorporated. The highest yield of the oil, 36.77%, was obtained by the solvent extraction method while the aqueous extraction method gave the lowest yield. In addition, the fatty acid profile of the oil was investigated.
