A passive sampling device, called Monitor of NICotine (MoNIC), was constructed and evaluated by the laboratory of the Institute for Work and Health to determine nicotine in Environmental Tobacco Smoke (ETS). To support a large campaign on the subject of passive smoking, the CIPRET Valais gracefully distributed more than 1500 MoNIC badges to the Swiss population in order to measure ETS. Non-stimulated saliva was also collected to determine nicotine/cotinine levels of participating volunteers. The inhaled Cigarette Equivalents (CE) by non-smokers was calculated for non-smokers, based on a reference of 0.2 mg of nicotine per cigarette. Using the detected CE on the badge for non-smokers, and comparing it to the nicotine/cotinine levels in saliva, we could confirm the use of the CE concept for estimating exposure to ETS.
工作与健康研究所实验室构建并评估了一种名为尼古丁监测仪（MoNIC）的被动采样装置，以测定环境烟草烟雾（ETS）中的尼古丁。为支持一项关于被动吸烟主题的大型活动，瓦莱州CIPRET向瑞士民众慷慨分发了1500多个MoNIC徽章，用于测量ETS。还收集了非刺激性唾液，以测定参与志愿者的尼古丁/可替宁水平。基于每支香烟含0.2毫克尼古丁的参考值，计算了非吸烟者吸入的香烟当量（CE）。利用在非吸烟者徽章上检测到的CE，并将其与唾液中的尼古丁/可替宁水平进行比较，我们能够确认使用CE概念来估计ETS暴露情况。
