Abstract
The concentration of 20 trace elements in nine different brands of Turkish cigarette tobacco and in a brand of pipe tobacco and in tobacco ash has been determined by instrumental neutron activation analysis. The percent transference of elements into smoke has been estimated from the amounts remaining in the ash.
