TL;DR
Sidestream cigarette smoke was generated into an inhalation chamber from which five normal male volunteers inhaled the smoke and the declining deposition fraction as size approaches 0.5 micron is consistent with previous theoretical and experimental data.
Abstract
Sidestream cigarette smoke was generated into an inhalation chamber from which five normal male volunteers inhaled the smoke. Size distribution of the smoke aerosol was: count median diameter, 0.11 micron, mass median diameter 0.43 micron. Deposition fraction measured as concentration difference for each size fraction between inhaled and exhaled aerosol for each size interval was: 0.075 micron, 0.24 +/- 0.04; 0.13 micron, 0.15 +/- 0.04; 0.24 micron, 0.10 +/- 0.04; and 0.42 micron, 0.07 +/- 0.02. The declining deposition fraction as size approaches 0.5 micron is consistent with previous theoretical and experimental data.

From measurements with a centrifugal aerosol collector of the type developed by Sawyer and Walton, it was found that tobacco smoke as it comes from a cigarette is an extremely concentrated aerosol with a relatively stable distribution of sizes ranging from 0.1 to 1.0 micron.

The pulmonary retention of certain volatile compounds and particulate matter in cigarette smoke was studied in humans and the importance of using methods which approximate actual smoking conditions when evaluating the biological effect of tobacco smoke is stressed.

The results for all aerosols show that particle deposition increases with an increase in tidal volume, but with a decrease in breathing frequency, however, particle deposition as a function of particle size is different between hydrophobic and hygroscopic aerosols in the size range tested.

The aerodynamic size distribution of cigarette smoke was measured using an aerosol centrifuge and a cascade impactor and was log normal with an initial mass median aerodynamic diameter which decreased as the dilution was increased.

A technique for measuring puff volume, inhaled amount, and respiratory deposition of cigarette smoke particulate phase has been developed and it provides satisfactory accuracy and causes minimal disruption of normal smoking pattern.

The data demonstrate that deposition of inhaled particles in the 0.024- to 0.24-micron size range is high and increases with decreasing size, and agrees with and validate predictions of mathematical models.

Data indicate that the deposition fraction of sidestream smoke is similar to other previously studied aerosols in the same size range and is much less than mainstream smoke.

A three-stage dilution system has been constructed which mixes a puff of smoke immediately after generation with filtered air without apparent coagulation, and it was possible to analyze the aerodynamic size distribution of cigarette smoke with a single particle aerodynamic relaxation time (SPART) analyzer with minimum coincidence loss.

The data demonstrate that deposition increases as particle size falls below 0.1 μ m, and increases with increasing tidal volume and increasing inspiratory pause time, which agrees with and validate predictions of earlier mathematical deposition models.
