Giovanni Battistella,Eleonora Fornari,Jean-Marie Annoni,Haithem Chtioui,Kim Dao,Marie Fabritius,Bernard Favrat,Jean-Frédéric Mall,Philippe Maeder,Christian Giroud +9 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that regular cannabis use is associated with gray matter volume reduction in the medial temporal cortex, temporal pole, parahippocampal gyrus, insula, and orbitofrontal cortex; these regions are rich in cannabinoid CB1 receptors and functionally associated with motivational, emotional, and affective processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipids of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Analysis of Molecular Species and Intracellular Site(s) of Biosynthesis
Journal ArticleDOI
E-Cigarettes: A Review of New Trends in Cannabis Use
Christian Giroud,Christian Giroud,Mariangela De Cesare,Aurélie Berthet,Vincent Varlet,Vincent Varlet,Nicolas Concha-Lozano,Bernard Favrat +7 more
TL;DR: Analysis of a commercial e-liquid rich in cannabidiol showed that it contained a smaller dose of active ingredient than advertised, but testing a laboratory-made, purified BHO confirmed that it could be vaped in an e-cig to deliver a psychoactive dose of THC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry: direct toxicological screening and analysis of illicit Ecstasy tablets.
Luc Alexis Leuthold,Jean-François Mandscheff,Marc Fathi,Christian Giroud,Marc Augsburger,Emmanuel Varesio,Gérard Hopfgartner +6 more
TL;DR: The DESI-MS technique could become very powerful for the rapid analysis of unknown tablets and shows the great potential of desorption techniques as an alternative to solution-based analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Julien Brechbühl,Fabian Moine,Magali Klaey,Monique Nenniger-Tosato,Nicolas Hurni,Frank Sporkert,Christian Giroud,Marie-Christine Broillet +7 more
TL;DR: Chemical analysis in combination with a series of physiological and behavioral tests identify a chemical Leitmotiv that underlies signaling of fear, but also point to a double role for the olfactory Grueneberg ganglion in intraspecies as well as interspecies communication of danger.
