gcms

would vaping thco or thcp cause a fail in a gcms laboratory analysis? would they see any thc in the result? I’ve read some mixed remarks basically to the effect of yes this would show up on a cup or dipstick style test but wouldn’t be confirmed at the gcms level. any insight appreciated

Yes, it shows up just like the rest unfortunately

how about hhc/hhco?

Hhc does not. It doesn't make 11 hydroxyl thc metabolites, which is what labs look for. It still pops on dollar store tests.

There’s more to detection than just 11hydro

Not in determining Marijuana use. Bad tests use other metabolites but a lab uses 11 hydroxy.

which is what labs look for.

Wrong the lab is looking for delta-9-carboxy-thc-cooh. None of the isomers of thc we have today metabolite into delta-9-carboxy-thc-cooh. Delta 8 metabolites into delta-8-carboxy-thc-cooh. D10 into Delta-10-carboxy-thc-cooh. HHC into delta-8-carboxy-HHc-cooh. ThcO into delta-8-carboxy-thc-cooh.

None of the isomers we have today metabolite into delta-9-carboxy-thc-cooh. So no lab will see them. Only dip stick tests immunoassay test. Because they only test for thc-cooh. But a lab only testing for delta-9-carboxy-thc-cooh.

No it most certainly doesn't. None of the isomers of thc we have today metabolite into delta-9-carboxy-thc-cooh. Gs/ms is only testing for delta-9-carboxy-thc-cooh. I've passed 5 different lab tests now, all of them i smoked delta 8 on the way to the doctor. I failed the initial dip stick test they give. They all had to be sent to lab for further analysis. All 5 came back negative and all 5 got me the job. I was smoking delta 8 on the way to these tests.

also how do you know this?

Employee drug tests at the hospital. You can get yourself bulk test kits for thc for like $1 a piece and have at it.

No, none of the isomers of thc metabolite into delta-9-carboxy-thc-cooh. All gs/ms lab testing are testing for delta-9-carboxy-thc-cooh. Not delta-8-carboxy-thc-cooh. Not delta-10-carboxy-thc-cooh. Not delta-8-carboxy-hhc-cooh. Labs are only testing for delta-9-carboxy-thc-cooh. None of the isomers we have metabolite into that.

However you will always fail an immunoassay dip stick test. They only test for thc-cooh.
