Cannabix Technologies Participates in New Southern United States Study With Marijuana Breathalyzer Technology

UF startup Cannabix Technologies Inc., developer of marijuana breathalyzer devices for law enforcement and the workplace reports that the Company is participating in a new comprehensive multi-analysis study of subjects under the influence of marijuana. The new study will work along side toxicologists and law enforcement officers in the southern United States. In late June, the Company participated in the first of three testing sessions that are expected to be held over the summer.

The Company has been coordinating for several months on its participation in this study with senior administrators. The study will test subjects under the influence of marijuana alongside several conventional drug screening methods (blood, oral fluid etc.), in conjunction with the use of Cannabix’s proprietary breath capture and marijuana detection equipment. Further, details of the study will be available in due course when disclosure approvals are granted to the Company.

This kind of study underway in southern United States will provide an important launch point for Cannabix devices in terms of a law enforcement and toxicology audience. Cannabix is using its marijuana breathalyzer technology to detect ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol (“THC”) – the psychoactive component of marijuana that causes impairment, in breath. Breath testing for THC would allow law enforcement to quickly and practically identify recent marijuana use that aligns with the timing window of impairment, unlike other technologies such as saliva or urine.
