[Reduction of smoking hazards by Denicotea filter-cartridges (author's transl)].
In the present study the efficiency of Denicotea filter-cartridges is determined as indicated by change of heart rate, skin temperature, urinary nicotine-content and subjective symptoms. Compared with standard smoking effects the use of Denicotea filters produces smaller increases in heart rate and significant reductions of urinary nicotine-content. The majority of the probands no longer experienced side effects. Thus, the elimination of nicotine from smoke by Denicotea filters is effectively demonstrated. Because only a minority of smokers is actually willing to discontinue their habit, despite medical advice, the introduction of Denicotea filters presents itself as a useful alternative.
