Abstract |
: |
The concentrati6n of 16 metals in jurak paste and jurak smoke
condensate has been determined by atomic absorption. In jurak paste the
main metallic constituents are Ca, Si, Fe, AI and K which represent
98.39%. Trace amounts of Sr, Ti, Mn, Zn, Cu, Pb, Ni, Cr, Co, As and Cd
are present and represent only 1.61 %. In the inhalant smoke Ca,Si, Fe, K
and Zn are the major elements and represent 99.22% and the remaining
0.78% comprise traces of the other metals. Out of 14.685 mgmetals present
in one gra~ jurak paste only 3.075 fLg are transferred to the inhalant smoke.
It appears that water in the shisha rese.rvoir retain some metallic inhalants
by acting as a condensation medium, and thus reduce the carcinogenic effect
of the metallic components in jurak smoke. |
