A method is described for determining major constituents in the smoke of a cigarette that heats, but does not burn, tobacco. Dual, simultaneous separations are performed in a single gas chromatographic oven to determine water, glycerol, nicotine, and propylene glycol in a rapid and cost-effective manner. A materials balance of new cigarette smoke total particulate matter was attempted from both Cambridge filter and electrostatic precipitation smoke collection data. Serious deficiencies were found when Cambridge filter smoke collection was applied for this purpose. Electrostatic precipitation smoke collection eliminated these problems. The data obtained by electrostatic precipitation smoke collection indicate that water, glycerol, nicotine, and propylene glycol make up about 94% of new cigarette smoke total particulate matter.
