Hi John,

I think no chance after oral administration:
"Limit of quantification (LOQ): ...The LOQ was found to be 100.82 ng/mL <...>for THC" from P KUMARA,S SHUKLAB, et al.

"Moreover, using a liquid chromatography-MS-MS method, Sutherland et al. found only traces of the parent drug in plasma of healthy volunteers given 8 mg orally (the recommended therapeutic dose). In that study, concentrations were all below 0.30 ng/mL, the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ), apart from the first sampling point, where it was approximately equal to the LLOQ<...> Again, TCC was below the limit of quantification (<1 ng/mL) and only the pharmacologically active metabolite M1 was detected." from M. Trellu et al.
(Emphasis by me)

By the way they recommended to perform PK studies of TCC with a bioanalytical method that can specifically assay both TCC and its metabolite. So everyone can try and look for parent drug ;-)

Kind regards,
Mittyri

Most scientists today are devoid of ideas, full of fear, intent on
producing some paltry result so that they can add to the flood
of inane papers that now constitutes “scientific progress”
in many areas.    Paul Feyerabend
