Residual tobacco smoke pollution in used cars for sale: Air, dust, and surfaces

Nicotine & Tobacco Research, 2008
Regular tobacco use in the enclosed environment of a car raises concerns about longer-term contamination of a car's microenvironment with residual secondhand smoke pollutants. This study (a) developed and compared methods to measure residual contamination of cars with secondhand smoke, (b) examined whether cars of smokers and nonsmokers were ...

Chemical studies on tobacco smoke LIX. Analysis of volatile nitrosamines in tobacco smoke and polluted indoor environments.

IARC scientific publications, 1978
Chemical-analytical data were presented illustrating that the mainstream smoke of tobacco products contains traces of volatile N-nitrosamines. The quantity of volatile nitrosamines in the sidestream smoke of cigarettes and cigars exceeds that in the mainstream smoke by at least a factor of 10.

[Prevention of air pollution by indoor tobacco smoke in France].

Bulletin de l'Academie nationale de medecine, 2006
A majority of smokers and non smokers find ambient tobacco smoke unpleasant. Passive smoking can cause sudden infant death, lung cancer and coronary heart disease. At least 3000 non smokers die as a result of passive smoking each year in France. Failure to properly implement Evin's law of 1991 explains why non smokers in France are still not protected.

Efficient Purification of Multiple Pollutants of Tobacco Smoke via Photocatalytic Oxidation Purifier

Environmental Science & Technology
Tobacco smoke, a complex mixture of particulate matter (PM) and gaseous pollutants, poses serious health risks and remains a significant challenge for indoor air purification. Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) technology has emerged as an effective strategy for pollutant removal, but its application in real tobacco smoke purification and associated health

[Environmental pollution with tobacco smoke--a threat to human health. Principles for prevention of tobacco smoking].

Folia medica Cracoviensia, 1994
Tobacco smoking is an important pathogenetic factor for man, but it is underestimated in our country. The great spread of this factor justifies the term "tobacco epidemic". Three epidemiological surveys made in Cracow and in the country near Lańcut indicated that 37% of the people smoked tobacco: 42% in the city of Cracow and 29% in the country. In 9.7%

[The environmental risk factors for COPD--tobacco smoke, air pollution, chemicals].

Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 2004
The identification of risk factors is an important step toward developing strategies for prevention and treatment of any disease. The risks of COPD are related to environmental exposures in combination with the genetic makeup of the individual. The principal environmental factor in COPD is well known--exposure to cigarette smoke--and it can be modified.
