[FONT=lucida_granderegular]Get Ready For Weed Checkpoints: The Marijuana Breathalyzer Is Now A Reality
[/FONT][FONT=lucida_granderegular]Ever since legalized recreational marijuana has become a reality in America, the powers that be have been brainstorming new ways in which to prosecute the legal marijuana user. Obviously, driving stoned is high on the list of no-nos, but the police state will exponentially increase now that cops will soon have marijuana breathalyzers.[/FONT]
[FONT=lucida_granderegular]As there are now 33 states with some form of legal marijuana, the government has been chomping at the bit for ways to find out how much THC you have in your system. Because THC metabolizes far differently than alcohol, this has presented a challenge to the authorities. Until now.[/FONT]
[FONT=lucida_granderegular]Current THC testing procedures have relied on blood, hair, and urine samples which test only for the presence of THC. Merely having THC in your system, however, is no way of indicating impairment.[/FONT]
[FONT=lucida_granderegular]Interdisciplinary researchers in Pitts Department of Chemistry and the Swanson School of Engineering claim to have overcome these limitations by using carbon nanotubes in their breathalyzer.[/FONT]
