abstract = "According to the current regulations in Serbia, the cultivation and sale of hemp-based
products (Cannabis sativa L.) containing up to 0.3% of substances from the group of
tetrahydrocannabinol is allowed. ∆-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is responsible for the
psychoactive effects and the development of cannabis addiction. A growing number of products
based on parts or the whole cannabis plant are on free sale. Since cannabis is the most
commonly used psychoactive substance, there is a greater need for quick and easy detection
in the body. The Aim of this project was to examine the effect of commercial cannabis-based
products consuption on urine THC detection by using immunochromatographic test strips.
Eight healthy volunteers consumed commercially available hemp-based products (four tea
products, two ground and two whole seeds products). The products were consumed according to
the instructions given by the manufacturer, for three consecutive days, and on the fourth day the
first morning urine was tested for the presence of THC using multicomponent One Step Rapid
Test®-Ameritek® test strips. Urine samples from five subjects gave a negative test result, and three
samples, from subjects who consumed hemp ground seeds and tea in bulk, gave a positive THC
test. Further analysis of positive urine samples by the conformative method (HPLC-PDA) did not
prove the presence of THC. Consumption of certain commercial cannabis-based products can lead
to false-positive results in the detection of THC in urine by immunochromatographic test strips.
Therefore, it is necessary to perform further analysis of urine by conformative methods., Prema važećoj regulativi u Srbiji je dozvoljeno gajenje i prodaja proizvoda na bazi
konoplje (Cannabis sativa L.) koji sadrže do 0,3% supstanci iz grupe tetrahidrokanabinola od
kojih se ∆-9-tetrahidrokanabinolu (THC) pripisuju psihoaktivni efekti i razvoj zavisnosti
povezan sa zloupotrebom kanabisa. U slobodnoj prodaji se nalazi sve veći broj proizvoda
baziranih na delovima ili celoj biljci kanabisa. S obzirom na to da je kanabis najčešće
korišćena psihoaktivna supstanca postoji i veća potreba za brzom i lakom detekcijom u
organizmu. Cilj ovog rada je ispitati uticaj konzumiranja komercijalnih proizvoda na bazi
konoplje na dokazivanje THC u urinu imunohromatografskim test trakama (1,2). U
ispitivanje je uključeno osam zdravih dobrovoljaca koji su konzumirali komercijalno
dostupne preparate na bazi konoplje (četiri čaja, dva mlevena i dva cela semena). Preparati
su konzumirani prema uputstvu datom od strane proizvođača, tri uzastopna dana, a četvrtog
dana je vršeno testiranje prvog jutarnjeg urina na prisustvo THC, upotrebom
višekomponentnih One Step Rapid Test®‐Ameritek® test traka. Uzorci pet ispitanika su dali
negativan rezultat testa, a tri uzorka, poreklom od ispitanika koji su konzumirali mleveno
seme konoplje i čaj u rinfuzu, dala su pozitivan test na THC. Daljom analizom urina koji su
dali pozitivan rezultat, konfirmativnom metodom (HPLC-PDA) nije dokazano prisustvo THC.
Konzumacija pojedinih preparata na bazi konoplje, koji se mogu naći u slobodnoj prodaji,
može da dovede do pojave lažno pozitivnih rezultata pri dokazivanju THC u urinu
imunohromatografskim test trakama, zbog čega je neophodno izvršiti dalju analizu urina
konfirmativnim metodama.",
