Note: N/A = not applicable for that analyte; ND = analyte not detected for that participant/condition; BL = baseline. Midpoint time value used for pooled specimens. Tmax and time to first and last detection are relative to oral dosing for 100-mg oral CBD and relative to dose inhalation for 100-mg vaporized CBD and CBD-dominant cannabis. Note: 038, 066 and 068 were males; 053, 054 and 063 were females.
