Marijuana
« on: May 15, 2013, 07:15:27 PM »
 Hello I am new here and have a question.
How do I know how much to consume marijuana can not exceed 150 nanograms in anti doping test.
This is the new rule of international anti doping committee for olympic sports.

Thanks.

These are individual things, both in terms of amount of THC in the dried weed and organism response. Thus the only simple answer to your question is: don't smoke at all.

It obviously depends on individual but I guess it will be hard tast to acomplish. THC has pretty high half-life in body (30-50 hours) and because of its lipofilic nature it could concentrate in body fat so it takes long time to get rid of it and can be detected long after yo stopped smoking. So.. dont smoke

When the test one of your pubic hairs they will know what you been doing over a long time.

I assume they use

to exclude those from failing due to being unlucky enough to be exposed to secondary smoke

I'm impressed this thread sneaked past the moderatorial attention for so long. :)

There is nothing worth moderation here.

Ok. I thought it'd violate "don't discuss drugs nor explosives synthesis or preparation," but then again he's not discussing making drugs.

Or perhaps in many places it is a legal drug. Dunno.

Anyways, carry on, I'm not lobbying for the thread to be closed! Just was surprised.  ;D

If you read the entire forum rules page  ;)

We have nothing against a reasonable scientific discussion of the properties of drugs and explosives, but we will not help you hurt yourself making them. If you you think your question might cross the line, feel free to send a private message to one of our moderators asking if the questions is acceptable. Note that even if the question is acceptable, discussion may take such a direction we will decide to close the thread. Due to their potential health hazards, we will also not help you prepare your own medicines or cosmetics.

There are lots of places on the Internet you can get the drug and pyro stuff  == so we do not need to be a repository here as well == It would not serve an educational purpose == This one seemed to have a conceptual educational potential - though I am not sure.

It is highly dependent on variety. You'll have to extractit from your plant of choice, and use an HPLC to make a standard calibration curve using a known standard.
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex

150 nanograms is a pretty insignificant amount unless you are exposed to second hand or something. i wouldn't try and smoke just enough to stay below that threshold.
