Embodiment 1

[0036] An acetate filter without plasticizer was prepared as standard filter A. Separately, 35 mg of a 10 wt % arginine aqueous solution was added to the standard filter A by a particle generator (atomizer), and tempered and dried for 48 hours to prepare a test filter (addition of 3.5 mg of arginine). Similarly, add 35mg of 10wt% arginine glutamate aqueous solution to the standard filter A by a particle generator (atomizer), and pass through 48 hours to temper and dry, thereby preparing another filter for testing ( Add 3.5 mg of arginine glutamate).

[0037] Each filter was connected to the above-mentioned cigarette portion, and the amount of formaldehyde (FA) in mainstream smoke was measured by the above-mentioned measuring method. The results are shown in Table 1. As can be seen from Table 1, cigarettes using standard filter A with arginine or arginine·glutamate added showed a sufficient formaldehyde reduction effect compared to cigarettes using standard filter A.

Embodiment 2

[0040] To the standard filter A, 6 wt% of triacetin as a plasticizer was added to prepare a plasticized standard filter B. This standard filter B is equivalent to the filter used in the product. Separately, 35 mg of a 10 wt % arginine aqueous solution was added to the standard filter B, and it was tempered and dried over 48 hours to prepare a filter for the test (3.5 mg of arginine added). Similarly, 35 mg of 10 wt % arginine glutamate aqueous solution was added to the standard filter B, and it was tempered and dried for 48 hours to prepare another filter for testing (addition of 3.5 mg arginine glutamic acid salt).

[0041] Each filter was connected to the aforementioned cigarette, and the amount of formaldehyde (FA) in mainstream smoke was measured by the aforementioned measurement method. The results are shown in Table 2. As can be seen from Table 2, the cigarettes in which arginine or arginine-glutamate was added to the standard filter B to which a plasticizer was added...

Embodiment 3

[0044] Add 35mg of 10wt% arginine aqueous solution, 20wt% arginine aqueous solution or 30wt% arginine aqueous solution to the standard filter B, and by conditioning and drying for 48 hours, thereby preparing 3 kinds of filter tips (adding 3.5mg arginine respectively , 7.0mg arginine, 10.5mg arginine).

[0045]Each filter was connected to the above-mentioned part of the cigarette, and the amount of formaldehyde (FA) in mainstream smoke was measured by the above-mentioned method. The results are shown in Table 3. It can be seen from Table 3 that, compared with the standard filter B, the effect will increase with the increase of the added amount of arginine, and the added amount of 3.5 mg has sufficient effect.

Abstract

The invention provides a cigarette and a cigarette filter tip added with basic amino acid or basic amino acid salt. The content of the basic amino acid or basic amino acid salt is preferably 1 ng or more per cigarette, and the basic amino acid or basic amino acid salt is preferably added in the form of an aqueous solution. In addition, a basic amino acid or a basic amino acid salt may be added together with a surfactant.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a cigarette with low aldehyde content in mainstream cigarettes and a cigarette filter capable of reducing the aldehyde content in mainstream cigarettes. Background technique [0002] Various chemicals are present in mainstream cigarettes that smokers inhale when they smoke. Among these chemical components, aldehydes represented by formaldehyde are difficult to be removed by ordinary cigarette filters. Therefore, there is a need to remove aldehydes from mainstream cigarettes. [0003] Conventionally, attempts have been made to add various additives to filters and the like in order to remove aldehydes in mainstream cigarettes by adsorption. [0004] However, when conventional additives are used, there are problems such as deterioration of the flavor of cigarettes. Contents of the invention [0005] The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a cigarette and a cigarette filter which seldom deterior...
