Analysis of Heavy Metals in Paper-Process Reconstituted Tobacco

Abstract:

In this paper, content of heavy metals such as mercury, lead, cadmium and arsenic in tobacco leaves, tobacco stems, imported and domestic RT was compared, it was found that content of heavy metals in tobacco leaves was higher than that in RT and tobacco stems; compared with the imported RT, the content of heavy metals in domestic products was higher, especially the content of cadmium was significantly high. The soil was the main source of heavy metals in RT, so strengthening inspection and monitor of soil was necessary and important.
