LC-MS/MS analysis of 11-nor-9-carboxy-hexahydrocannabinol (HHC-COOH) and 11-hydroxy-hexahydrocannabinol (HHC-OH) for verification of hexahydrocannabinol (HHC) intake.
Natural and semi-synthetic cannabinoid analogs are getting increasing media attention for their recreative use as an alternative to traditional cannabis, in Sweden as well as internationally. To investigate an increasing number of urine samples incoming to our clinical laboratory that were screening positive, using a CEDIA THC-COOH immunoassay from ThermoFisher Scientific, but then testing negative using GC-MS based verification analysis, we developed an LC-MS/MS-method for verification of hexahydrocannabinol (HHC) and Δ8-tetrahydrocannabinol. Assessment of HHC intake was based on identification of the following four metabolites: 11-nor-9(R)-carboxy-hexahydrocannabinol (R-HHC-COOH), 11-nor-9(S)-carboxy-hexahydrocannabinol (S-HHC-COOH), 11-hydroxy-9(R)-hexahydrocannabinol (R-HHC-OH) and 11-hydroxy-9(S)-hexahydrocannabinol (S-HHC-OH). Out of 46 urine samples analysed in this study, 44 showed presence of HHC-metabolites, which indicate HHC as the main explanation for an increased number of negative verifications for THC-COOH. In these samples, the HHC-OH metabolites occurred at a higher concentration than R-HHC-COOH while S-HHC-COOH was only detected in few samples at low concentrations. R-HHC-COOH and S-HHC-COOH can easily be added to a pre-existing verification method for THC-COOH, and still show acceptable results, while HHC-OH requires an enzyme capable of hydrolysing the ether glucuronide bond.
期刊介绍:
The Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation is an international scientific journal covering clinically oriented biochemical and physiological research. Since the launch of the journal in 1949, it has been a forum for international laboratory medicine, closely related to, and edited by, The Scandinavian Society for Clinical Chemistry.
The journal contains peer-reviewed articles, editorials, invited reviews, and short technical notes, as well as several supplements each year. Supplements consist of monographs, and symposium and congress reports covering subjects within clinical chemistry and clinical physiology.
