- the selected cannabis concentrate is commercially available and was provided to participants in an ethanol solution.
- the concentrate contains 8 mg THC per dose. It was selected because it contains a high percentage of THC, which provides a noticeable effect on user-reported "euphoria”.
- Aqueous ethanol was used as solvent because it effectively dissolves cannabis extract, as well as SNAC.
- each participant mixed the cannabis concentrate with a pre-mixed solution of aqueous ethanol and 200mg SNAC, and immediately swallowed the dissolved mixture.
- each participant recorded the time of dose administration, the time of onset of euphoria and/or dysphoria, and the observed level of euphoria and/or dysphoria in fifteen minute intervals for five hours following administration of the cannabis dose.
- Euphoria and dysphoria were reported using a scale value, in a range from 1-10. Table 1 shows descriptions of euphoria and dysphoria levels for each scale value.
