6. Urine Concentrations of a Tobacco-Specific Nitrosamine
Carcinogen in the U.S. Population from Secondhand
Smoke Exposure
7. NNAL concentration according to cigarette brand
미국 벡터(Vector)사는 지난 2001년 발암성 물질을 줄인 담배
‘OMNI’를 선보인 데 이어, 2003년에는 저니코틴 담배 ‘QUEST’를
출시했다. 이 담배는 기존 담배와 비교해 니코틴 함량을 97% 낮춘
GM(유전자조작)담배로 제조됐다. 그러나 향과 맛 등의 주요 특징
들은 기존 담배와 거의 동일한 것으로 전해졌다.
A Vector Tobacco website claimed Omni produced
a 53% reduction in exposure to NNK.

NNA has been described as a very
reactive aldehyde which has never
been quantified in tobacco or tobacco
smoke. There has been considerable
interest in recent years
in the chemical composition of
smokeless tobacco products based
around health concerns associated
with their use
