Abstract

A simultaneous determination method for the analysis of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) and dibenzo[a,h]anthracene (DahA) in the filter tar of Turkish cigarettes has been developed. The method involved (a) the extraction of BaP and DahA with n‐hexane from ACN solution in which the cigarette filters were extracted, and then (b) purification of the n‐hexane extracts by elution on an XAD‐2 column using n‐hexane/dichloromethane (9 : 1, v/v) mixture. Separation and quantitative determination of BaP and DahA in the extracts were carried out by HPLC and fluorescence detection on a C18 RP column. The calculated recoveries for BaP and DahA were found in the range of 90–100% for each extraction and clean‐up steps. Analysis of various filter tar of Turkish cigarettes showed that an average of 74.28 ng/filter of BaP and 5.24 ng/filter of DahA were present in Turkish cigarettes.
