CORESTA Meeting, Smoke Science/Product Technology, Jeju, 2007, SSPT 02 Market survey: study on the cigarette designs used in Europe LE MOIGNE C.; RAVERDY-LAMBERT D.; TARDIF N.; LOUREAU J.M.; LE BOURVELLEC G. LTR Industries (SWM Intl.), Le Mans, France Two market surveys were done, in 2000 and in 2005, which consisted in analyzing the major brands sold in 15 Western European countries. The principle was to analyze for each selected country a number of brands representing 60 to 70% of the domestic...
CORESTA Congress, Paris, 2006, PT 16 Reconstituted tobacco treatment to reduce TSNA content of tobacco products - Part II: Effect of the treatment on TSNA and Hoffmann analytes in mainstream smoke LE BEC L.; RIGOULAY C.; RAVERDY-LAMBERT D.; LE BOURVELLEC G. LTR Industries (SWM Intl.), Le Mans, France In part I, we have presented a treatment that reduces TSNA levels in tobacco during reconstitution and its effects on tobacco chemistry. The objective of this paper is to present the smoking results of the reconstituted tobacco treated to reduce the...
CORESTA Congress, Paris, 2006, PT 15 Reconstituted tobacco treatment to reduce TSNA content of tobacco products - Part I: Tobacco treatment during reconstitution RIGOULAY C.; LE BEC L.; RAVERDY-LAMBERT D.; LE BOURVELLEC G. LTR Industries (SWM Intl.), Le Mans, France A lot of effort has been devoted since several years to reduce tobacco specific nitrosamines (TSNA) in tobacco products. Tobacco breeding, cultural and curing practices have been improved to prevent TSNA formation. The paper making reconstitution of...
CORESTA Meeting, Smoke Science/Product Technology, Stratford-upon-Avon, 2005, SSPT 08 Protein removal from tobacco RAVERDY-LAMBERT D.; DUROT N.; LE MOIGNE C.; LE BOURVELLEC G.; BASKEVITCH N. LTR Industries (SWM Intl.), Le Mans, France Proteins and amino acids are precursors of numerous nitrogen compounds in smoke together with alkaloids. The reduction of proteins content in tobacco can contribute to reduce certain Hoffmann's analytes in smoke such as N heterocyclic compounds...
CORESTA Congress, Kyoto, 2004, PT 12 Tobacco cell wall polymers: stems composition and organization DUROT N.; RAVERDY-LAMBERT D.; LE MOIGNE C.; LE BOURVELLEC G.; BASKEVITCH N. LTR Industries (SWM Intl.), Le Mans, France The knowledge of cell wall polymers is important because they can affect the physical and mechanical properties of stem and smoke composition. The main constituents of tobacco cell walls are pectins, cellulose, hemicelluloses, lignins and proteins....
CORESTA Meeting, Smoke/Technology, Innsbruck, 1999, ST23 An automated method for determination of "organic" potassium in tobacco LE MOIGNE C.; RAVERDY-LAMBERT D.; CHAPUIS F. LTR Industries (SWM Intl.), Le Mans, France During the CORESTA meeting in Budapest in 1993, Nicolas Baskevitch and James Horler presented a new chemical index related to tobacco combustibility: "organic" potassium expressed as K2O and defined as the total potassium minus potassium which is...
CORESTA Meeting, Smoke/Technology, Budapest, 1993, ST 01 Organic potassium. Its role in controlling the rate of burn and tar content of tobacco products BASKEVITCH N.; HORLER J.W. LTR Industries (SWM Intl.), Le Mans, France One of the most important requirements in the design of tobacco products is the ability to control the burn rate of the tobacco blend. It has long been recognized that both potassium and chlorine play an important part in determining the burn rate of...
Bull. Spec. CORESTA Congress, Vienna, 1984, p. 127, PP06, ISSN.0525-6240 Initial findings of the feasability study for a Coresta databank SILBERSTEIN D.A.; BASKEVITCH N. LTR Industries (SWM Intl.), Le Mans, France The Coresta Databank Task Force has concluded that the production of a databank is feasable and could be implemented in about two years. The Task Force has studied the various factors involved in the conception, construction, production and...
