Development of a Cigarette Tobacco Filler Standard Reference Material
A new tobacco filler
Standard Reference Material (SRM) has been
issued by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
in September 2016 with certified and reference mass fraction values
for nicotine, <i>N</i>-nitrosonornicotine, 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone,
and volatiles. The constituents have been determined by multiple analytical
methods with measurements at NIST and at the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, and with confirmatory measurements by commercial laboratories.
This effort highlights the development of the first SRM for reduced
nicotine and reduced tobacco-specific nitrosamines with certified
values for composition
