2010 Collaborative Study of CORESTA Monitor #6 (CM6) for the Determination of Test Piece Weight, TPM, Water, Nicotine, NFDPM, Carbon Monoxide and Puff Count Obtained Under Mainstream “ISO” and “Intense” Smoking Regimes

RAC Final Report

August 2011

The CORESTA Routine Analytical Chemistry (RAC) Sub-Group organized a collaborative study of the CORESTA Monitor 6 (CM6) test piece. Seven parameters measured on the CM6 were included in the study: (1) weight after conditioning; (2) total particulate matter or TPM; (3) water, nicotine; (4) nicotine-free dry particulate matter (NFDPM); (5) carbon monoxide (CO); and (7) puff count. CM6 samples were generated under the mainstream ‘ISO’ and ‘Intense’ Smoking regime parameters.
