Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for determining the chemical components of mainstream cigarette smoke, in particular to a chiral analysis of nicotine in mainstream cigarette smoke, a convergent phase chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method. Background technique
[0002] Nicotine, also called nicotine, is an alkaloid found in the nightshade family and an important component of tobacco. The nicotine molecule contains a chiral center, the 2-position carbon atom on the tetrahydropyrrole ring, so nicotine has two enantiomers: S-(-)-nicotine and R-(+)-nicotine. The two enantiomers of nicotine have completely different contents, metabolic mechanisms and physiological properties. Therefore, chiral analysis of nicotine in mainstream cigarette smoke is required.
[0003] At present, the chiral analysis of nicotine is mainly carried out by gas chromatography. For example, the patent application No. 201610663534.1 "A Method for Chiral Analysis of Nicoti...
