Abstract

The study investigates the presence of tetrahydrocannabinols in the head hair and the pubic and axillary hair. The hair samples were obtained from hashish smokers. The concentrations were determined by radioimmunoassay and reflect total tetrahydrocannabinols and metabolites. The values found ranged from 0.4 ng/mg hair up to 3.8 ng/mg hair. The presence of the drug in the hair samples was also demonstrated by GC/MS.
