目的：我们研究了尼古丁浓度和pH值之间的差异，在香烟和雪茄烟草field.METHODS：尼古丁和pH值水平为50支香烟和75雪茄品牌进行了测量。非薄荷醇和薄荷醇卷烟产品被包括在分析沿着与几个雪茄类型确定由制造商：大雪茄，烟斗烟草雪茄，小雪茄，迷你小雪茄，和小cigars.Results：有显着差异，发现pH值和尼古丁的香烟和雪茄烟草产品。卷烟（19.2 mg/g）和大雪茄（15.4 mg/g）的平均尼古丁浓度高于其他雪茄类型，尤其是烟斗雪茄（8.79 mg/g）。香烟的平均pH值为5.46。大雪茄有最高的平均pH值（pH 6.10）和烟斗烟草雪茄有最低的（pH 5.05）。结论：虽然香烟是最常见的可燃烟草产品在世界范围内使用，雪茄的使用仍然很受欢迎。我们的研究提供了一种方法来研究区分这两种烟草产品类型的可能性，并提供了各种卷烟和雪茄品种的尼古丁和pH值信息，这些信息可能有助于制定跨产品类型的烟草政策和法规。
OBJECTIVE: We examined differences between nicotine concentrations and pH in cigarette and cigar tobacco filler.METHODS: Nicotine and pH levels for 50 cigarette and 75 cigar brands were measured. Non-mentholated and mentholated cigarette products were included in the analysis along with several cigar types as identified by the manufacturer: large cigars, pipe tobacco cigars, cigarillos, mini cigarillos, and little cigars.RESULTS: There were significant differences found between pH and nicotine for cigarette and cigar tobacco products. Mean nicotine concentrations in cigarettes (19.2 mg/g) and large cigars (15.4 mg/g) were higher than the other cigars types, especially the pipe tobacco cigars (8.79 mg/g). The mean pH for cigarettes was pH 5.46. Large cigars had the highest mean pH value (pH 6.10) and pipe tobacco cigars had the lowest (pH 5.05).CONCLUSIONS: Although cigarettes are the most common combustible tobacco product used worldwide, cigar use remains popular. Our research provides a means to investigate the possibility of distinguishing the 2 tobacco product types and offers information on nicotine and pH across a wide range of cigarette and cigar varieties that may be beneficial to help establish tobacco policies and regulations across product types.
