A case is presented involving a young woman on several illicit drugs (heroin, cocaine and cannabis) as well as two medications and a solvent used for their anesthetic and narcotic properties: thiopental, ketamine and chloroform. This complex drug use was supported by hair analysis over a 10.5 cm
This study was aimed at finding structural requirements for the interaction of the acyl chain of endocannabinoids with cannabinoid receptors, membrane transporter protein, and fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH). To this end, the flexibility of the acyl chain was restricted by introduction of an
Dermonecrosis was induced in ICR mice by subcutaneous implantation of Staphylococcus aureus absorbed onto sterile cotton pellets. This model was used to assess the effects of marijuana smoke, marijuana placebo smoke and delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta 9-THC) on the local immune response to
A capillary GC method for the simultaneous determination of cannabidiol (CBD), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and cannabinol (CBN) in cannabis is described. The major components in cannabis were extracted with chloroform. After being concentrated by evaporation, the residue was dissolved in methanol.
Mitochondrial monoamine oxidase (MAO) of human brain and liver was inhibited by low concentrations of cannabis extract (CE) and a cannabinoid fraction isolated from it. delta 1-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) did not elicit any inhibitory effect on the enzyme. The inhibition of MAO activity by CE and by
High-pressure liquid chromatography was used to study (a) the relative efficiencies of methanol, chloroform, light petroleum (B.P. 40-60 degrees) and methanol-chloroform (9:1) for extracting neutral and acidic cannabinoids from cannabis resin; (b) the decomposition patterns of the resulting
Three spiro-compounds, namely cannabispiran, dehydrocannabispiran and beta-cannabispiranol, and 2 dihydrostilbenes [3-(2-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl)-5-methoxyphenol and canniprene] were isolated from a polar fraction of a Panamanian variant of Cannabis sativa L. grown in Mississippi, United
A method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of five cannabinoids, viz. cannabidiol (CBD), cannabidiol acid (CBD-COOH), cannabinol (CBN), delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and 3'-carboxy-delta9-all-trans-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC-COOH) in cannabis products. The
A GC-MS method was performed to determine the total delta9-THC content in both drug- and fiber-type cannabis seeds. Drug-type seeds were found to contain much higher levels of delta9-THC (35.6-124 microg/g) than fiber (hemp) seeds (0-12 microg/g). The majority of delta9-THC was found to be located
The complete 1H- and 13C-NMR assignments of the major Cannabis constituents, delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol, tetrahydrocannabinolic acid, delta8-tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabigerol, cannabinol, cannabidiol, cannabidiolic acid, cannflavin A and cannflavin B have been determined on the basis of one- and
An HPLC single-laboratory validation was performed for the detection and quantification of the 11 major cannabinoids in most cannabis varieties, namely, cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), cannabigerolic acid (CBGA), cannabigerol (CBG), cannabidiol (CBD), tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), cannabinol (CBN),
Vaping of synthetic cannabinoids via e-cigarettes is growing in popularity. In the present study, we tentatively identified 12 by-products found in a pure sample of the synthetic cannabinoid Cumyl-5F-PINACA (1-(5-fluoropentyl)-N-(2-phenylpropan-2-yl)-1H-indazole-3-carboxamide), a prevalent new
Cannabis sativa L. plants produce a diverse array of secondary metabolites. Cannabis cell cultures were treated with jasmonic acid (JA) and pectin as elicitors to evaluate their effect on metabolism from two cell lines using NMR spectroscopy and multivariate data analysis. According to principal
