In their quantitation (via their 4-nitrophenylhydrazone derivatives) of several aldehydes and ketones in the MSS from cigarettes made from fine-cured laminae and from flue-cured midribs, Sakuma et al. (3396) reported no significant differences between the MSS yields of the compounds listed in Table 111-5. However, many were much reduced when the cigarette was tipped with a charcoal filter. 

From their study of the pyrogenesis of acrolein (prope-nal) from glycerol, Doihara et al. (1023) and others deduced that a tobacco smoking product that contains glycerol as a
