Survey of Nicotine and Tar Yields from Domestic and Imported Cigarette Samples in the Fiscal Year 87

採用國際標準化機構（150）制訂的方法對15種國產香菸及35種進口香菸總計281件進行尼古丁及焦油含量之抽樣檢驗。15種國產香菸之尼古丁平均值為1.38mg／支，其標示不符合檢測值允許標準者佔6.7%；焦油平均值為15.38 mg／支，未發現不符合者。35種進口香菸尼古丁平均值為0.97 mg／支，標示不符合者佔5.9%；焦油平均值為11.26 mg／支，未發現不符合者。顯示國產香菸之尼古丁及焦油平均含量高於進口香菸之平均值。國產及進口香菸均有部分品牌尼古丁及焦油含量標示不符合檢測值允許標準，且均有部分品牌尼古丁及焦油含量高於我國未來限量標準。

In the fiscal year 87, 281 samples of domestic and imported cigarettes were analyzed using ISO methods. Nicotine yields of domestic cigarettes averaged 1.38 mg/cig, the labels of which violated a Health Department mandate 6.7% of the time. Corresponding tar yields averaged 15.38 mg/cig, all of which complied with the mandate. Nicotine yields of 35 imported brands averaged 0.97 mg/cig, the labels of which violated the mandate 5.9% of the time. Corresponding tar yields averaged 11.26 mg/cig, all of which were in compliance with the mandate. Thus both average nicotine and tar yields of the domestic cigarettes were higher than those of imported cigarettes. However, both domestic and imported brand labels frequently violated a Health Department mandate. The tar and nicotine contents of several brands, both domestic and imported, will require a reduction before the Health Department's new regulations come into effect.
