ABSTRACT:
A method for confirming the active intake of marijuana and its active component Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (“Δ9-THC”) by detecting the amount of 11-nor-Δ9-THC carboxylic acid (“THCA”) in oral fluid at the picogram per milliliter (pg/ml) level using chromatography/mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (“GC/MS/MS”).
