The studies reported herein were designed to investigate some properties of saliva cotinine measurements in indicating exposure to tobacco smoke. Such measurements were found to be minimally affected by saliva flow rate or time since smoking as well as being sensitive to a low level of exposure to tobacco smoke. Results supported the view that the saliva cotinine assay is the most useful currently available method for objectively measuring exposure to tobacco smoke.
本文所报道的研究旨在调查唾液可替宁测量在指示接触烟草烟雾方面的一些特性。发现此类测量受唾液流速或吸烟后时间的影响极小,并且对低水平的烟草烟雾接触敏感。结果支持了这样一种观点,即唾液可替宁检测是目前可用于客观测量接触烟草烟雾的最有用方法。
