Interest is increasing in the content of toxic metals in cigarette smoke for both their harmful health effects and the possible antagonistic influence with the essential microelements. Numerous factors influence the metal concentration found in tobacco, including soil type and pH, genotype, stalk position, application of metal-containing pesticides to leaves. The rate of transfer to the smoke is dependent on the volatility, the temperature and the filter-type. In cigarette smoke element concentrations vary among brands and even within the same brand.
