Abstract. Phenolic compounds are very important constituents of cigarette smoke condensate (CSC) and they have a significant effect on the overall aroma, flavor, and biological properties of cigarette smoke. Many of them are toxic, and in this study we investigated the change of volatile phenols content in CSC by the addition of CaCl2, FeCl2, FeCl3, and CuCl2 to cigarettes before smoking. In some cases the phenols content in CSC was significantly reduced (up to 20%), as well as the mass of tar and CO content of mainstream cigarette smoke.
Key words: cigarette smoke condensate, phenols, metal salts 
UTICAJ DODATKA METALNIH SOLI CIGARETAMA PRE PUŠENJA
NA SADRŽAJ ISPARLJIVIH FENOLA U KONDENZATU DUVANSKOG DIMA
Fenolna jedinjenja su vrlo značajni sastojci kondenzata duvanskog dima (KDD) jer utiču na aromu, ukus i fiziološka svojstva duvanskog dima. Mnoga od tih jedinjenja su toksična. U ovom radu je ispitivan uticaj dodatka CaCl2, FeCl2, FeCl3 i CuCl2 cigaretama pre pušenja na sadržaj isparljivih fenola u KDD. U nekim slučajevima sadržaj fenola u KDD je značajno smanjen (i do 20%) kao i masa katrana i sadržaj CO u glavnoj struji duvanskog dima.
