인류가 흡연을 시작하면서 담배는 보편적인 사람들의 기호식품으로 이용되기도 했으나, 보건학적으로 인간의 건강을 위협하는 가장 위협적인 존재로 인식되고 있다. 흡연자의 담배연기에 비흡연자가 무저항적으로 노출되는 간접흡연의 문제는 생활수준의 향상과 생활활동 양식의 변화, 건강에 대한 관심의 증대로 현대인들에게 매우 중요한 문제가 되고 있다. 환경중 담배연기(Environmental Tobacco Smoke; ETS)는 흡연자의 입, 비강에서 품어내는 주류연(mainstream smoke)과 담배가 자연 연소되면서 발생하는 부류연(sidestream smoke)이 환경공기 중에 확산된 상태의 담배연기를 일컫는 용어로 실내공기의 주요오염원이다.

Environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) samples were collected separately in mainstream and side-stream smoke using a self-designed smoking machine, and a total 40 of PM2.5 was collected with low volume air sampler at indoor environments with and without ETS in Daejeon, Korea. About 20 trace elements including toxic metals like As, Cr, Mn, Se, V, and Zn were determined in PM2.5 and ETS samples by instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA). It is found that the emission factors of K, Cl, Na, and Al were much higher than those of toxic elements for both mainstream and side-stream smoke. The average concentration of PM2.5 was enriched by 1.5 times at smoking area ($58.7{\pm}18.1{\mu}g/m^3$) than at smoking free area ($38.6{\pm}12.7{\mu}g/m^3$). The concentration ratio of each element between smoking and smoking free area were ranged from 1.1 to 6.0 except Cu (1.0); especially, Ce (6.0), La (5.2), K (2.3), and Co (2.0) showed higher ratio, which suggests that the ETS is one of the possible increasing factors of PM2.5 and elemental concentration at indoor environment.

Exposure of nonsmokers to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) has been claimed to be associated with an increased risk for lung cancer e. g., in the US, Europe, Japan and several Asian countries. The present paper reports on and discusses the scientific evidence available to date that can be used in order to assess this potential risk for Korea. Evidence related to three key steps in risk assessment, i.e., the characterization of a potential risk, data associating a response to a dose, and data characterizing actual exposures of people to ETS will be reviewed. The final assessment of the potential risk will be left to those qualified and commissioned with the task of risk assessment as a basis for public health policy in Korea.

1950년대 이후 구미 각국에서 수집된 대부분의 독성학적, 역학적 연구조사자료에 따르면 흡연과 관련한 발병률 및 사망률의 주요 원인이 흡연 당사자의 직접흡연에 의한 것으로 보고되어 왔다. .그러나 최근 들어 담배연기에 대한 비흡연자의 비자의적인 노출 즉, 환경담배연기(Environmental Tobacco Smoke, 이하 ETS)로 인한 보건학적 위해성에 대한 논란이 제기되면서 간접흡연은 새로운 사회문제로 대두되고 있다(Repace, 1980; Surgeon General, 1986).(중략)

오늘날 경제적 생활환경의 개선으로 인하여 현대인은 24시간 중 80 % 이상을 다양한 실내에서 생활하고 있다. 이에 따라 실내 공기질에 대한 관심이 확대되고 있는 실정이다. 우리나라도 1970년대 이후 실내환경에 대한 공기오염의 보건학적 관심을 보이기 시작했으며 오염원에 대한 기초 조사와 연구가 더욱더 절실한 실정이다. 특히, 실내에서의 오염원 중 담배연기는 보건학적으로 인간의 건강을 위협하는 가장 위협적인 존재이며, 실내 공기질에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 최악의 오염원이므로 담배 연기에 대한 연구는 매우 중요하다. (중략)

In cosmetics market, anti-pollution products recently come up with new solution for skin health. Environmental oxidation mechanisms are realized as bio-marker of atmospheric pollution upon skin by environmental pollutant such as ozone, UV rays, particulate matter (PM) as well as cigarette smoke. The exposure of cigarette smoke directly or indirectly causes the oxidation of the stratum corneum skin lipids, resulting in the conversion of squalene to squalene monohydroperoxide and/or generation of malondialdehyde (MDA) as a product of lipid peroxidation. The aim of this study is to see whether new cosmetics product containing red beet has anti-oxidation effect on skin exposed by cigarette smoke. So as to determine oxidative damage to human skin at biochemical level, each unit area of volar forearms was exposed to cigarette smoke through device (3.3 cm, diameter) for fifteen minutes, then measured MDA using standardized TBARS assay kit. Compared to negative control (untreated and unexposed area), the level of MDA was significantly increased at positive control (untreated and exposed area) more than 3.7 times, indicating the pollutant induced-oxidative damage on the skin barrier. Whereas, the pre-applied area with the cosmetics products containing red beet revealed a decrease of 25% compared with positive control. As reports, these data demonstrated that cigarette smoke induce peroxidation of stratum corneum skin lipids. Conclusively, we suggest that anti-pollution effect of the cosmetics product containing red beet is beneficial to prevent the oxidation of skin lipids by atmospheric pollution.
