An analytical reference standard of the major urinary metabolite of nicotine. Not only is cotinine a biomarker for users of nicotine products including cigarettes, cigars, and snuff, but it′s also an alkaloid found in tobacco. Suitable uses for this analytical reference standard include as a starting material in calibrators and controls for GC/MS and LC/MS applications in nicotine testing methods or clinical and diagnostic testing of nicotine biomarkers.

Electronic cigarettes (e-cigs) are relatively new devices that allow the user to inhale a heated and aerosolized solution. At present, little is known about their health effects in the human lung, particularly in the small airways (<2 mm in diameter)
Active smoking and secondhand smoke (SHS) are known risk factors for kidney disease in adults. We evaluated the association between exposure to active smoking or SHS and kidney function in US adolescents. This is a cross-sectional study in 7516 adolescents

Exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) is most often estimated using questionnaires, but they are unreliable. Biomarkers can provide valid information on ETS exposure, the preferred biomarker being cotinine. However, no reference range of hair cotinine exists to distinguish among
