In 20 smokers who switched to a new type of virtually tar free cigarette for three days, average nicotine intake was reduced by 44%, carbon monoxide intake increased by 19%, while estimated tar intake was reduced by about 90%. Such cigarettes pose substantially less risk of cancer and chronic obstructive lung disease than conventional cigarettes, and their acceptability and safety could be improved by increasing nicotine yield, reducing carbon monoxide yield, and improving the flavour.
在20名改用一种新型几乎无焦油香烟三天的吸烟者中，平均尼古丁摄入量减少了44%，一氧化碳摄入量增加了19%，而估计焦油摄入量减少了约90%。与传统香烟相比，此类香烟引发癌症和慢性阻塞性肺病的风险要小得多，通过提高尼古丁产量、降低一氧化碳产量和改善味道，其可接受性和安全性有望得到提高。
