Abstract
Inorganic components were surveyed of some Brazilian cigarette tobacco by M AA. Sixteen different brands were taken from the consumer market and analyz ed for As, Ba, Br, Ca, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Eu, Fe, K, La, Na, Rb, Sc, Sm, Sr an d Zn elements. Comparisons between the results from this work and those ori ginated from several cigarette tobacco producing countries, indicate signif icant variation in the levels of some elements.
