Gas Chromatography를 이용하여 잎담배와 연기응축물 중의 비휘발성유기산과 지방산을 정량 분석하였다. 특히 이들 유기산들은 단엽담배일 때 주류연으로 이행율을 조사하였는 바 linolenic acid, 31~62%, linoleic, 21~59% palmitic 29~38%, malic acid 4~6% 정도의 이행율을 보였다.
A gas chromatographic procedure is described which permits seperation and determination of nonvolatile organic acids and higher fatty acids simultaneously in tobacco leaves and cigarette smoke condensate. The transfer rates from cigarettes to main stream smoke were examined for eight of the nonblending cigarettes. Average transfer rates for three varieties tobacco leaves, respectively were linolenic 31 and 62% linoleic 21 and 59% palmitic 29 and 38% malic 4 and 6%.
