Tobacco-specific nitrosamines in water: An unexplored environmental health risk

Andra, Syam S. / Makris, Konstantinos C.

Graphical Abstract Display Omitted Research Highlights ► Cigarette and STP are important sources of TSNA to water supplies. ► Knowledge on the occurrence and removal of TSNA in water bodies is lacking. ► Worst-case scenario predicts detectable TSNA levels in wastewater influent. ► Cancer risk potency of TSNA is similar to that of highly toxic alkyl nitrosamines, such as NDMA. ► As shown in the graphical hypothesis, research on the occurrence and quantification of health risks of TSNA in water deserves attention from the scientific community.
