Book excerpt: Excerpt from Research Studies on the Curing of Leaf Tobacco Observant growers well know that tobacco leaves which have been killed by freezing or by bruising do not cure normally, and a leaf which is quickly dried by heat does not possess the properties Of the cured leaf. Moreover, if the fresh leaf is subjected for a few minutes to the action Of protoplasmic poisons, such as formaldehyde or chloroform, it will not cure properly. It is quite evident, therefore, that curing is a life process and thus differs fundamentally from the subsequent fermentation, which takes place after the death Of the leaf cells. That curing is essentially a life process can also be readily shown by chemical analysis, as is brought out in later paragraphs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Chemical Study on Mature, Cured and Fermented Pennsylvania Cigar-Leaf Tobacco Tobacco has been the subject of investigation for many years, but much of the earlier data can no longer be regarded as reliable. The dearth of analytical procedures adequate to cope with the problems pre sented by the chemical complexity of the tobacco leaf has been a ser ious obstacle in the pathway of progress along this line.

This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Use of Artificial Heat in Curing Cigar-Leaf Tobacco It is quite possible to dry the tobacco leaf without curing it, and it is also largely possible to cure the leaf without drying it. The two processes may or may not go hand in hand, depending on whether the existing conditions favor both processes. In practice the problem is to dry the leaf under such conditions as will best develop the de sirable qualities of cured tobacco. It is to be remembered that if the living cells of the leaf are killed prematurely the curing is stopped once for all, although the drying may continue. Under ordinary conditions the leaf is killed by the loss of water, so it is essential that too rapid drying be avoided in order to afford an Opportunity for the curing changes to take place. On the other hand, if the drying is too slow or is delayed too long the curing proceeds too far. The rate of drying is therefore one of the principal factors in good curing.

This book was released on 2017-07-08 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles and Practical Methods of Curing Tobacco It is evident, then, that the lower, fully mature leaves of the plant when moderately ripe will be best suited for the production of cigar wrappers bright in color and having the necessary elasticity but neutral in flavor, while the upper leaves harvested before they have fully matured will give the best fillers, having the required flavor and aroma but being much darker in color than the wrappers. In curing the bright yellow tobacco it is necessary that the leaf be fully ripe, for the content of the green coloring matter must be reduced to the minimum consistent with the required toughness in order to oh tain the cured leaf free from green or brown discoloration.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This eighty-ninth volume of the IARC Monographs is the third and last of a series on tobacco-related agents. Volume 83 reported on the carcinogenicity of tobacco smoke and involuntary smoking (second-hand smoke or environmental tobacco smoke) (IARC 2004a). Volume 85 summarized the evidence on the carcinogenic risk of chewing betel quid with and without tobacco (IARC 2004b). That volume explored the variety of products chewed in South Asia and other parts of the word that contain areca nut in combination with other ingredients, often including tobacco. In this eighty-ninth volume, the carcinogenic risks associated with the use of smokeless tobacco, including chewing tobacco and snuff, are considered in a first monograph. The second monograph reviews some tobacco-specific nitrosamines. These agents were evaluated earlier in Volume 37 of the Monographs (IARC 1985) and information gathered since that time has been summarized and evaluated.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.
Download or read book Ending the Tobacco Problem written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-10-27 with total page 643 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nation has made tremendous progress in reducing tobacco use during the past 40 years. Despite extensive knowledge about successful interventions, however, approximately one-quarter of American adults still smoke. Tobacco-related illnesses and death place a huge burden on our society. Ending the Tobacco Problem generates a blueprint for the nation in the struggle to reduce tobacco use. The report reviews effective prevention and treatment interventions and considers a set of new tobacco control policies for adoption by federal and state governments. Carefully constructed with two distinct parts, the book first provides background information on the history and nature of tobacco use, developing the context for the policy blueprint proposed in the second half of the report. The report documents the extraordinary growth of tobacco use during the first half of the 20th century as well as its subsequent reversal in the mid-1960s (in the wake of findings from the Surgeon General). It also reviews the addictive properties of nicotine, delving into the factors that make it so difficult for people to quit and examines recent trends in tobacco use. In addition, an overview of the development of governmental and nongovernmental tobacco control efforts is provided. After reviewing the ethical grounding of tobacco control, the second half of the book sets forth to present a blueprint for ending the tobacco problem. The book offers broad-reaching recommendations targeting federal, state, local, nonprofit and for-profit entities. This book also identifies the benefits to society when fully implementing effective tobacco control interventions and policies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maurice Duke and Daniel P. Jordan vividly describe the colorful life and times of one of the South's—and America's—most important businesses and provide insight into how luck, management practices, and personalities helped the company rise to international prominence. Universal Leaf Tobacco Company, the world's largest independent leaf tobacco dealer, is one of the major buying arms for tobacco manufacturers worldwide, selecting, purchasing, processing, and storing leaf tobacco. The story opens during the aftermath of the Civil War when Southerners realized once again the worldwide potential of their native crop. The authors follow the company from its incorporation 1918 through one of the first hostile takeover attempts in American business, to its evolution in 1993 into Universal Corporation, a worldwide conglomerate with a number of products including tobacco. Based on scholarly research and over two hundred interviews with past and present Universal employees, this objective saga reveals much about American business and economic history.
