Nicotine, tar and carbon monoxide contents in mainstream smoke of 92 cigarettes products, including 85 cigarettes from manufacturers and importers and 7 cigarettes from inspections, were analyzed in this study which was commissioned by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. The seven cigarettes from inspections were not labeled the nicotine and tar content on the cigarette container which did not comply with the“Tobacco Hazards Prevention Act”, and the nicotine, tar and carbon monoxide yields in the mainstream smoke of cigarettes ranged from 0.60-1.10 mg/cig, 6.0-12.0 mg/cig and 5.91- 16.85 mg/cig respectively, of which the yields of nicotine and tar in 2 cigarettes and the yields of tar in 2 cigarettes exceeded the regulated limits (nicotine contained in each paper cigarette stick shall not exceed 1 milligram; tar contained in each paper cigarette stick shall not exceed 10 milligrams). Eighty-five cigarettes from manufacturers and importers were labeled with yields of nicotine and tar on the cigarette container which complied with the“Tobacco Hazards Prevention Act”, and the nicotine, tar and carbon monoxide yields in the mainstream smoke of cigarettes ranged from 0.06-1.00 mg/cig, 0.1-10.0 mg/cig and 0.29-14.81 mg/cig respectively, in which the yields of nicotine and tar did not exceed the regulated limits, but the labeling of yields of nicotine and tar in 1 cigarette and the labeling of yield of nicotine in 1 cigarette did not meet the allowable analytical error range. |
