Abstract:Saliva is a body fluid that is much easier to collect and analyze than blood. Thus, saliva analysis for the detection of delta 9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (delta 9‐THC) can serve as a tool for law enforcement agents to detect cannabis consumption by drivers. Fast saliva analysis for the presence of delta 9‐THC and/or cannabidiol (CBD) is described with both gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) with Cold electron ionization (EI) with good separation and in 10 min and/or with Open Probe Fast GC–MS with Cold E… Show more
