Deciphering the Phytochemical Potential of Hemp Hairy Roots: A Promising Source of Cannabisins and Triterpenes as Bioactive Compounds.

ABSTRACT: Cannabis sativa L., specifically hemp, is a traditional herbaceous plant with industrial and medicinal uses. While much research has focused on cannabinoids and terpenes, the potential of hemp roots is less explored due to bioproduction challenges. Still, this material is rich in bioactive compounds and demonstrates promising anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties. Biotechnological methods, such as hairy root cultures, enable the efficient production of specialized metabolites while avoiding the issues of outdoors cultures. Despite these benefits, the chemical diversity understanding of hemp hairy roots remains limited. In this study, we conducted an extensive NMR and LC/MS chemical profiling of hemp hairy roots to determine their chemical composition, revealin
