    Comparison of heated tobacco product aerosol to cigarette smoke in human bronchial epithelial tissues using high content screening

    TRELLES STICKEN E.(1); WIECZOREK R.(1); POUR S.J.(1); CHAPMAN F.(2); SIMMS L.(2); STEVENSON M.(2)
    (1) Reemtsma Cigarettenfabriken GmbH, Hamburg, Germany; (2) Imperial Brands PLC, Bristol U.K.
    Laboratory studies have shown heated tobacco product (HTP) aerosols have substantially reduced numbers and levels of harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHCs) relative to combustible cigarette smoke. The biological impact of these aerosols...

    Quantitative risk assessment (QRA) indicates reduced risk potential for carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic effects of the aerosol of the next generation products (NGPs) compared to reference cigarettes

    AYALA-FIERRO F.(1); CZEKALA L.(2); SIMMS L.(2); RUDD K.(2); CAVA G.(2); STEVENSON M.(2)
    (1) ITG Brands LLC, Greensboro, NC, U.S.A.; (2) Imperial Brands PLC, Bristol, U.K.
    In order to understand the potential relative health risks of NGPs compared to cigarettes, we compared the relative risks of aerosols from tobacco-containing and tobacco-free NGPs to the smoke generated from a reference cigarette. Quantitative Risk...
