CORESTA Meeting, Smoke Science/Product Technology, Aix-en-Provence, 2009, SSPT 38 Using diffusion measurements to predict the ignition propensity of cigarettes LOUREAU J.M.; KRAKER T.; LE MOIGNE C.; SNOW L.; WANNA J. Schweitzer-Mauduit International, Papeteries de Mauduit, Quimperlé, France The dominant technology used on cigarette paper to help reduce the ignition propensity of cigarettes is to apply bands of a coating material to the cigarette paper. The role of these bands is to reduce the burn intensity of the cigarette as the...
TSRC, Tob. Sci. Res. Conf., 2009, 63, abstr. 10 TSNA method comparison using UHPLC-MS/MS MATHIS J.A.; PO YING YEUNG Global Laboratory Services, Wilson, NC, USA. Method development and optimization was performed for the quantification of tobacco specific nitrosoamines (TSNAs) in tobacco leaf.
