Transdermal nicotine systems (Nicotinell 30) were applied daily to the skin of healthy nicotine-dependent smokers for 4 days. Blood samples were taken for the measurement of nicotine and cotinine in plasma using capillary gas chromatography with nitrogen detection. The plasma concentration-time
Toxicity of Bacillus thuringiensis spores to the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta, is described. The numbers of larvae killed were in relation to spore dry weight. At a surface application of 6.8 ng/cm2, there was an 85 percent survival, but less than 50 percent survived at 68.2 ng/cm2. Striking
UNASSIGNED
Few studies have examined the extent of inhalation or dermal contact among bystanders following short-term, secondhand e-cigarette exposure.
UNASSIGNED
Measure PM2.5 (particles < 2.5 microns), UF (ultrafine particles < 100 nm), and nicotine in air and deposited on surfaces and clothing
OBJECTIVE
To assess the dermal contact of nicotine dust, subjective symptoms and urinary cotinine of post curing tobacco workers.
METHODS
Dermal hand wipes of residual nicotine dust samples, morning urine samples and subjective symptoms were collected from 30 workers. The hand-wipe samples and urine
A transdermal nicotine patch, which delivers 0.7 mg/cm2 per 24 h and is available in sizes of 10, 20, and 30 cm2 was tested in subjects from 21 general medical practices in a 3-month, placebo-controlled randomised double-blind study. The nicotine group (n = 100) and the placebo group (n = 99) were
Field experiments are usually necessary for analyzing the efficiency of control methods, the resistance of varieties and many other virological studies. Such experiments generally include a large number of samples to be tested serologically. DAS-ELISA is a very accurate technique that has been
In vitro studies on H+ secretion, potential difference (PD), short-circuit current (Isc), and resistance across stripped mucosa of frog stomach in Cl-medium have shown that addition of nicotine in the serum bathing fluid caused a marked inhibition of the H+ secretory rate and an increase of PD and
To assess the smoking cessation efficacy of transdermal nicotine patches as an adjunct to low-intervention therapy, we conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 158 smokers. Participants were randomly assigned to one of the following three study regimens that required daily application

Nicotine plus flavorings in a propylene glycol (PG) vehicle are the components of electronic cigarette liquids (e-liquids), which are vaporized and inhaled by the user. Dermal exposure to nicotine and e-liquids may occur among workers in mixing and filling of e-cigarettes in the manufacturing
Nicotine replacement therapy in the form of transdermal nicotine patches and nicotine gums combined with behavioral counseling still has a low smoking cessation rate of 25%. A promising approach to smoking cessation is to remotely program variable transdermal nicotine delivery rates, with inputs
Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) formulations for oromucosal administration induce a delayed rise in nicotine blood levels as opposed to the immediate nicotine increase obtained from cigarette smoking; this being a shortcoming of the therapy. Here, we demonstrate that α-lactalbumin/polyethylene
BACKGROUND
The Union-Bloomberg Initiative tobacco control projects were implemented in Himachal Pradesh (a hilly state in North India) from 2007 to 2014. The project focused on the establishment of an administrative framework; increasing the capacity of stakeholders; enforcement of legislation;
The relative deposition of inhaled heterodisperse particles of the size of environmental tobacco smoke (ETS, mass median aerodynamic diameter 0.2 micron, geometric standard deviation 1.5) is about the same in the tracheobronchial tree and is lower in the pulmonary region of the rat than in the same
A major serum protein was isolated from the hemolymph of larvae of the female tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta, just prior to metamorphosis. After 3 or 4 days, this predominantly female-specific protein is rapidly cleared from the hemolymph and taken up and stored by the fat body. This larval serum
