“…at a volume of 0.1 ml/10 g. Although there is no clear formula for converting human doses to mice, comparable plasma concentrations of a drug in the two species would be expected to lead to comparable brain concentrations (Kuczenski and Segal, 2005). A dose of 4 mg/kg of AMPH achieves plasma concentrations 4250 ng/ml in mice (Riffee et al, 1978;Van Swearingen et al, 2013), which is within the range of plasma levels achieved by oral doses of AMPH that have been reported to be abused by adolescents (Kramer et al, 1967;Anggård et al, 1970;Gustavsen et al, 2006). Importantly, we have shown previously that this dose of AMPH, administered in the same regimen as the present experiments, alters the expression of DCC in the VTA (Yetnikoff et al, 2010(Yetnikoff et al, , 2011.…”

“…Drug analyses may also be performed in blood, saliva and breath (with generally shorter detection times than urine) and hair (detection times up to a year) (129). In clinical toxicology, quantitative blood drug analyses can be used to assess the type and severity of intoxications (129), and in forensic toxicology, such analyses are also used to estimate the degree of drug influence or impairment (133). Toxicological methods used in acute psychiatric settings will be discussed in the next chapter.…”

“…De aller fleste eksperimentelle studiene som har undersøkt effekter av amfetamin og metamfetamin har brukt lavere doser (5-40 mg) enn hva som brukes i russammenheng (73). I en studie fra Norge som har undersøkt bilførere som er pågrepet av politiet for mistanke om kjøring i på-virket tilstand, er det en økende andel som blir vurdert som påvirket ved økende konsentrasjoner av amfetamin og/eller metamfetamin (73).…”

“…I en studie fra Norge som har undersøkt bilførere som er pågrepet av politiet for mistanke om kjøring i på-virket tilstand, er det en økende andel som blir vurdert som påvirket ved økende konsentrasjoner av amfetamin og/eller metamfetamin (73). Etiske hensyn gjør det vanskelig å undersøke tilsvarende doser i eksperimentelle studier.…”
