- Assess exposure to secondhand smoke--high sensitivity. Measure trans-3'-hydroxycotinine, phenotype for CYP2A6 activity by the metabolite ratio
- Assess levels of anabasine/anatabine during nicotine replacement therapy.
- Assess NNAL, probably the best biomarker for secondhand smoke exposure.
- Measure urine concentrations of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) metabolites of naphthalene, fluorene, phenanthrene, and pyrene
