Abstract

The effect of a polybenzimidazolium anion exchange polymer on improving sensitivity and selectivity toward the electrochemical detection of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) has been investigated. Herein we report a rapid, inexpensive and stable approach to detecting 10-1000 ng mL−1 of Δ9-THC in buffered solutions and in human saliva.
