STANDARD VALUES BASED ON ODOR ACCEPTABILITY

In this study, according to AIJES, the odor standard value of sidestream smoke of cigarettes and other than mainstream aerosol of heated tobacco products (HTPs) was examined. The acceptability of each odor sample was examined by 60 panels who passed the selection test, and the odor concentration of the unacceptable rate of 15%, 20%, and 30% was indicated. The results showed that the standard values of other than mainstream aerosol of HTPs were 1.2～1.5 times higher than standard values of AIJES, and indicating that HTPs was more acceptable at higher concentrations than cigarettes.
