From day 1 post partum to postnatal day 5, lactating female mice were given daily oral doses of 25 microliters sesame oil, 0.5 mg tetrahydro-6,6,9-trimethyl-3-pentyl-6H-dibenzo(b,d)pyran-1-ol (delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol; THC)/kg or 50 mg THC/kg in 25 microliters oil. Additionally, the pups were
A procedure for the determination of delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta 9-THC) in the presence of its degradation products in pharmaceutical vehicles by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is described. The method compares favorably with a standard gas-liquid chromatographic procedure
Subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC) to rabbits produced dose-related cumulative toxicity. Five groups of three New Zealand albino rabbits each received 28 daily treatments with isotonic saline, sesame oil of 15.9, 45.0 or 153.4 mg/kg/day of delta-9-THC
Immunosuppression evoked by delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta 9-THC) has been a consistent finding in rats but the development of tolerance to this phenomenon has not been explored. Therefore, Fischer rats of both sexes were orally given delta 9-THC at 6 or 12 mg/kg or sesame oil as vehicle
The modification of a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system and the development of a capillary gas-chromatographic (GC) system for the analysis of delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol, encapsulated in soft gelatin capsules, are described. A photodiode array detector was used to evaluate peak
Hemp-derivative (Cannabis sativa L.) food products containing trace levels of Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) are proposed for consumption in Australia and New Zealand; however, it is unclear whether use of these products will negatively affect existing drug screening protocols. This double-blind,
Either 15 or 50 mg/kg of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in sesame oil was administered by gastric intubation to gravid rats during the last two weeks of gestation. A pair-fed control group was administered the vehicle alone and allowed to eat and drink only the amount consumed by the 50 mg/kg
Glutathione (GSH) is widely distributed among living cells and is involved in many biological functions. It provides the sulfhydryl groups for conjugation of toxic metabolites of several xenobiotica. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) toxicity is a classical example of this property. For this purpose, we
Either 15 or 50 mg/kg delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in sesame oil was administered by gastric intubation to gravid rats during the last two weeks of gestation. A pair-fed control group was administered the vehicle alone and allowed to eat and drink only the amount consumed by the 50 mg/kg group
Cannabinoids are increasingly being used in the treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) because of their action on the cannabinoid receptors, CB1 and CB2. The currently marketed capsule formulations (sesame oil based and crystalline powder) are required to be administered
The mutagenic potential of chronic treatments of male CF-1 mice with ethanol and delta 9-tetrahydrocannibinol (THC), and their comutagenic potential with a known mutagenic agent, Trenimon, were examined. This was accomplished by measuring the frequency of dominant lethal mutations arising from
Moreau de Tours's classical studies about haschisch had pointed out to a rich symptomatology: visual and auditive hallucinations preceded by the "primordial effect": "the dissociation of ideas". This delirious state was assimilated to dream. Modern studies, conducted with Delta-9-THC, in healthy
OBJECTIVE
Results of a study to determine the 90-day stability of dronabinol capsules stored under various temperature conditions are reported.
METHODS
High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with ultraviolet (UV) detection was used to assess the stability of dronabinol capsules (synthetic
An oral formulation of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in sesame oil (Marinol) is at present used for the management of chemotherapy-related nausea and emesis. However, due partly to poor bioavailability, its efficacy is variable. To circumvent possible metabolism in the gut and a first-pass
Although the oral route has traditionally been used for THC administration during the perinatal period in the rat, most studies administering THC during the postnatal period utilize intraperitoneal (ip) administration. In an effort to utilize the same route of administration in both prenatal and
