Cigarettes - Determination of alkaloids in smoke condensates - Spectrometric method
This International Standard specifies a method for the spectrometric determination of alkaloids in cigarette smoke condensates. The smoking of cigarettes and collection of mainstream smoke are normally carried out in accordance with ISO 4387. However, this method is also applicable to the determination of nicotine in cigarette smoke condensates obtained by non-standard smoking.
This International Standard determines total alkaloids, whereas ISO 10315 determines only nicotine by virtue of the gas-chromatographic separation. Occasionally, differences can occur because of minor amounts of alkaloids other than nicotine in some types of tobacco.
