Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA, 2-COOH-THC; conjugate base tetrahydrocannabinolate) is a precursor of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), an active component of cannabis. [1]THCA is found in variable quantities in fresh, undried cannabis, but is progressively decarboxylated to THC with drying, and especially under intense heating such as when cannabis is smoked or cooked into cannabis edibles.
The THC molecule, and related compounds, are usually detectable in drug tests from 3 days up to 10 days. [citation needed] Long-term users can produce positive tests for two to three months after ceasing cannabis use (see drug test). [17]
