Recent developments in biological sample testing methods for the confirmation of gestational exposure to tobacco smoke anddrugs of abused
PublikacjaSubstance use is most prevalent in reproductive-aged people also by women during pregnancy. In national prevalence surveys among women aged 15 to 44 years, 10.8 % of women reported using alcohol during pregnancy, 17 % reported smoking during pregnancy, and 4.4 % reported abusing any illicit substances during pregnancy. Virtually all illegal drugs, such as heroin and cocaine, pose dangers to a pregnant woman. Legal substances, such...

Formaldehyde in Human Saliva as an Indication of Environmental Tobacco Smoke Exposure
PublikacjaSkład środowiskowego dymu tytoniowego zależy przede wszystkim od stosowanej odmiany tytoniu oraz różnorodnych dodatków wprowadzanych do tytoniu na etapie produkcji papierosów. Podczas palenia tytoniu węglowodany ulegają złożonym przemianom, w wyniku których powstają toksyczne składniki środowiskowego dymu tytoniowego, w szczególności aldehydy (formaldehyd). Celem badań było uzyskanie informacji o poziomie zawartości formaldehydu...

Application of ion chromatography for the determination of inorganic ions, especially thiocyanates in human saliva samples as biomarkers of environmental tobacco smoke exposure
PublikacjaŚrodowiskowy dym tytoniowy jest jednym z czynników decydujących o jakości powietrza wewnętrznego różnego typu pomieszczeń zamkniętych. Toksyczne składniki wydzielające się wraz z głównym i bocznym strumieniem dymu tytoniowego mają istotny wpływ na skład chemiczny płynów biologicznych. Jednym z biomarkerów narażenia na szkodliwe składniki środowiskowego dymu tytoniowego są jony rodankowe. Celem badań było znalezienie korelacji pomiędzy...

Determination of thiocyanate as a biomarker of tobacco smoke constituents in selected biological materials of human origin
Publikacjan order to protect human health, it is necessary to biomonitor toxic substances originating from tobacco smoke in biological materials sampled from persons with different exposures to tobacco smoke constituents. Thiocyanate anion is a biomarker of exposure to tobacco smoke components which is characterized by a relatively long half‐life in the human body, i.e. 6 days. In this work, we present the results of thiocyanate determinations...

Estimation of smokers' exposure to mercury from combustible tobacco products, based on the approach used in food consumers’ exposure estimation
PublikacjaSmoking has been known to mankind for centuries, but it is only in recent decades that much attention has been paid to the harmfulness of this habit. Mercury inhalation is particularly dangerous in this respect and smoking creates extremely favorable conditions for the emission and targeted delivery of this element into the lungs. Despite this fact, a lack of a clear method for estimating the exposure of tobacco consumers to mercury...

Środowiskowy dym tytoniowy - skład, oddziaływanie na organizm, problemy analityczne = Environmental tobacco smoke - chemical constituents, impact on human health, analytical problems
PublikacjaPalenie tytoniu jest przyczyną znacznego zanieczyszczenia powietrza wewnętrznego różnego typu pomieszczeń. Wiele związków chemicznych wydzielających się wraz z głównym i bocznym strumieniem dymu papierosowego wykazuje charakter rakotwórczy, a także wywołuje skutki toksyczne odległe w czasie. Różny stopień narażenia na szkodliwe składniki środowiskowego dymu tytoniowego obserwuje się zarówno u aktywnych, jak i biernych palaczy....

MECONIUM SAMPLES USED TO ASSESS INFANT EXPOSURE TO THE COMPONENTS OF ETS DURING PREGNANCY
PublikacjaThe aim of the study was to use meconium samples to assess fetal exposure to compounds present in environmental tobacco smoke (ETS). Material and Methods: In order to assess fetal exposure to toxic tobacco smoke compounds, samples of meconium from the offspring of women with different levels of tobacco smoke exposure, and the samples of saliva from the mothers were analyzed. Thiocyanate ion as a biomarker of tobacco smoke exposure,...

Application of analytical procedure based on accelerated solvent extraction and ion chromatography technique for determination of thiocyanate and other inorganic ions in human placenta samples
PublikacjaExposure of a pregnant woman during pregnancy is a special case of exposure to toxic substances. Samples of placenta collected for the studies had been prepared with the technique of accelerated solvent extraction and later analyzed for the presence of thiocyanate ion and other inorganic ions, with the use of the technique of ion chromatography. The concentration of thiocyanate ion in placenta samples collected from active smokers...

Application of ion chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection for the determination of trace cyanide in biological samples, including breast milk
PublikacjaCyanide (CN) is the biomarker of exposure to the components of tobacco smoke, although its presence in biological samples is also due to the consumption of products containing cyanogenic glycosides. In this work, we determine the concentration of the free cyanide in urine, saliva and breast milk matrices, using ion chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (IC-PAD). IC-PAD is an emerging method, with only few documented...

Evaluation of mercury content in combustible tobacco products by employing cold vapor atomic absorption spectroscopy and considering the moisture content: a comprehensive study
PublikacjaPlants are mainly made up of water, which constitutes between 80 and 90% of their weight. Moisture factor comes across as one of the most important in tobacco products. Rapid determination of moisture content in tobacco products comes at neces- sity in any tobacco management plants (before and after production). Therefore, the concern has been raised in this study to evaluate the moisture content in four kinds of combustible tobacco...
