The present invention relates to newly prepared derivatives of synthetic cannabinoids, the structure of which is a short linking bridge carrying a carboxyl function, and chemical processes for the preparation of such compounds. These synthetic cannabinoid derivatives can be advantageously used for conjugation with a fluorescent label, which in turn would allow visualization of the interactions of such labeled ligands with cannabinoid receptors, or for the preparation of immunogens by conjugation with a carrier protein. Polyclonal rabbit antibodies derived from immunized laboratory animals can be used to develop fast, user-friendly Lateral-Flow Immunochromatographic Assay (LFIA) immunochemical assays. |
