| Abstract | Speciation data for chromium in tobacco products, as obtained by complementary HPLC-ICP-MS and synchrotron-based X-ray Absorption Near-Edge Structure spectroscopy (XANES), are presented for the first time. Non-denaturing extraction conditions were investigated to avoid Cr species redox inter-conversion before analysis of extracts using HPLC-ICP-MS. Methodology based on HPLC-ICP-MS, which is compatible with the extraction conditions, was developed for separation and detection of inorganic Cr species such as Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in aqueous standard solutions. The instrumental limits of detection (3σ criterion) obtained for Cr(III) and Cr(VI) were 0.12 and 0.08 ng g−1 Cr, respectively. The total Cr extracted from 3R4F cut tobacco with water was around 10% of the total Cr in the solid (1949 ± 171 ng g−1 of Cr on a dry weight basis), with 75% of the aqueous Cr associated with species of molecular mass > 3 kDa. Cr(III) was the main identified species in the tobacco extracts using HPLC-ICP-MS, whilst Cr(VI) could not be detected. In situ XANES analysis revealed that the cut tobacco from 3R4F reference cigarettes contained only Cr(III). Following leaching with water, leaching with sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) on the solid residue led to extraction of a further 10% of the Cr contained in the solid tobacco. The total Cr data obtained by ICP-MS for HNO3 and HNO3/HF acid digests of 3R4F cut tobacco suggested that additional 12% of the total Cr in the solid appears to be associated with silicates, which are known to occur naturally in tobacco products. Although Cr species could not be detected in water leachates from 3R4F smoke condensates using the HPLC-ICP-MS method developed here, XANES measurements identified Cr(III) as the main Cr species present in cigarette smoke condensate, with no detectable Cr(VI). HPLC-ICP-MS data obtained for smoke condensates from cigarettes spiked with Cr(III) before smoke collection revealed that Cr(III) is the main Cr species in present the water soluble fraction of the condensate. Spiking experiments demonstrated that Cr(VI) was highly unstable in trapped smoke condensate. In this work no evidence was observed for the presence of Cr(VI) in mainstream smoke generated from 3R4F cigarettes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
