The first study to apply multidimensional data analysis to determine the similarity and differences in features of chemicals and cancer risks among the most popular moist snuff products worldwide.
Identification of clearly different toxicant constituents through multidimensional data approach for a wide range of chemicals.
Differences in toxicant levels when expressed on a dry weight basis, but less variation when results are normalized for nicotine content.
Higher cancer risk estimates for dry weight determinations than nicotine normalized determination.
