A method based on gas chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (GC-QqQ MS/MS) was developed for the determination of 23 widely used flavor additives in tobacco products in this paper. The MS/MS fragmentation pathway of the cinnamic esters additives was illustrated. The new analytical method was defined based on two main axes, ultrasonic solvent extraction procedure with dichloromethane and analyte detection performed by GC-QqQ MS/MS in electron impact mode. The excellent selectivity and sensitivity achieved in multiple reactions monitoring (MRM) mode allowed satisfactory confirmation and quantitation for the tobacco flavor additives. The linear range of the 23 flavor additives is 0.2-500.0μg/L with good correlation coefficients (r(2)>0.9963). The limits of detection (LODs) and limits of quantitation (LOQs) of these compounds were in the range 0.1-2.0μg/L and 0.4-6.0μg/kg, respectively. The average recoveries at three spiked levels (LOQ, 2LOQ, 4LOQ) were all in the range 62.1-93.8% with RSDs (n=6) lower than 7.8%. The method of GC-QqQ MS/MS developed in this study was initially applied to the research of flavor additives in 12 retail cigarette samples and proved to be accurate, sensitive, convenient and practical.

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a highly selective, semipermeable barrier critical for maintaining brain homeostasis. The BBB regulates the transport of essential nutrients, hormones, and signaling molecules between the bloodstream and the central nervous system (CNS), while simultaneously protecting the brain from potentially harmful substances and pathogens. This selective permeability ensures that the brain is nourished and shielded from toxins.

This population-based, nationally representative cross-sectional study assessed the daily salt consumption status and its associated cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors using weighted data from the STEPwise approach to noncommunicable disease risk factor surveillance conducted in 2018 in Bangladesh. It included a non-institutionalized adults' population of 6189 men and women aged 18-69 years. Their daily salt consumption was estimated using the spot urine sodium concentration following the Tanaka equation and reported according to the standard nomenclature proposed by the World Hypertension League and partner organizations involved in dietary salt reduction.
