In addition to a standard field sobriety test, he said, officials are working to establish a saliva swabbing policy, which would assess THC in
nanograms per milliliter as well.
In fact, each particle of Suliman's technology can remove about 300
nanograms of pesticide residue--much more than bees can survive.
Recorded on September 7, the concentration of salbutamol in Froome's sample was 2,000
nanograms per millilitre (ng/ml), double the World Anti-Doping Agency's limit of 1,000 ng/ml.
Under the law, the ambient air standard of 0.5
nanograms per cubic meter would be an acceptable air quality over a 12-month, annual basis in the Territory of Akwesasne.
Last year experiments by KIRO, the CBS station in Seattle, and KDVR, the Fox affiliate in Denver, showed that regular cannabis consumers can perform competently on driving courses and simulators at THC levels far above five
nanograms. The lack of correspondence between the new standard and impairment is especially unfair to medical marijuana users, some of whom may be above the five-nanogram limit all the time, meaning they are never legally allowed to drive in Washington.
Garland stated that, "There is no compelling reason to wait for further studies to incorporate vitamin D supplements into standard care regimens since a safe dose of vitamin D needed to achieve high serum levels above 30
nanograms per milliliter has already been established."
Most experts consider 30 to 74
nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) to be the normal range for vitamin D as checked via a blood test.
Women in the high serum group had an average level of 30
nanograms per milliliter (ng/ml) of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in their blood.
The study participants were 8,709 male veterans who underwent a coronary angiography (an x-ray of coronary arteries into which dye has been injected) and had total testosterone levels below 300
nanograms per deciliter; 1,223 men used testosterone therapy, and 7,486 men did not.
Recent data from the long-running Framingham Heart Study indicated that someone with vitamin D levels below 15
nanograms per millilitre of blood is twice as likely to suffer a heart attack, stroke or other cardiovascular problem within two years as someone with the recommended 20
nanograms per millilitre, the report said.
Colorado lawmakers rejected for a third time a bill that would have established a driver's blood-level limit of 5
nanograms per milliliter of blood for THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana.
