![]() ![]() These products heat tobacco to temperatures of 250-350 ☌ depending on the device allowing for the volatilization of nicotine and flavorants while potentially limiting the production of combustion-related toxicants. In attempts to eliminate combustion while still delivering nicotine and flavorings, a newer alternative tobacco product has emerged known as "heat-not-burn"(HnB). N2 - With conventional cigarettes, the burning cone reaches temperatures of >900 ☌, resulting in the production of numerous toxicants and significant levels of highly reactive free radicals.

Food and Drug Administration (under Award Number R01-HL-147344). This work was supported in part by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute of the National Institutes of Health and the Center for Tobacco Products of the U.S. T1 - Free Radical Production and Characterization of Heat-Not-Burn Cigarettes in Comparison to Conventional and Electronic Cigarettes Free radical production should be considered in evaluating the toxicological profile of nicotine delivery products and identification of the radicals is of paramount importance.", Gas phase radicals differed in polarity with HnB products and conventional cigarettes producing more polar radicals compared to those produced from e-cigs. Gas-phase free radicals were detected in smoke/aerosol from all products with levels for HnB (IQOS, Glo) (12 pmol/puff) being similar to e-cigs (Juul, SREC, box mod e-cig) and hybrid devices (Ploom) (5-40 pmol/puff) but 50-fold lower than conventional cigarettes (1R6F). Particulate-phase radicals were detected only for conventional cigarettes. Free radical polarity was assessed by passing the aerosol or smoke through either a polar or nonpolar trap prior to being spin trapped with PBN. Smoke or aerosols were trapped by a spin trap phenyl-N-tert-butylnitrone (PBN) and analyzed for free radicals using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). To better understand how the designs of these new products compare to conventional cigarettes and different styles of electronic cigarettes (e-cigs), we measured and partially characterized their production of free radicals. In attempts to eliminate combustion while still delivering nicotine and flavorings, a newer alternative tobacco product has emerged known as (HnB). Free radical production should be considered in evaluating the toxicological profile of nicotine delivery products and identification of the radicals is of paramount importance.Ībstract = "With conventional cigarettes, the burning cone reaches temperatures of >900 ☌, resulting in the production of numerous toxicants and significant levels of highly reactive free radicals. ![]() ![]() With conventional cigarettes, the burning cone reaches temperatures of >900 ☌, resulting in the production of numerous toxicants and significant levels of highly reactive free radicals. ![]()
