Early production relied heavily on manual labor and basic machinery, while modern manufacturing uses automated systems, advanced quality control, and large-scale industrial processes
1) and the use of cigarette smoking machine.2 Higher levels of citrate were added to cigarettes, which increased combustion and thus decreased the amount of polycyclic hydrocarbons carcinogens, but instead increased the formation of nitrosamines.2 Most cigarette filters are made from a non-biodegradable material.3 Although the filter has been understood as a barrier that wants to remove toxins, thus reducing damage, it is currently known that it does not offer health benefits to smokers, and inhalation of the fibers also affects them.4 Fragments of the material from which the filters are made are separated from it in manufacturing and are released on inhalation of the cigarette.57 Filter fibers have been found in the lungs of smokers with lung cancer.6 These modifications in cigarette design have also contributed to a change in the prevalence of the histological type of lung cancer, with adenocarcinoma now being the most frequent.4 Little by little over time, the percentage of filter cigarettes increased, reaching 97.5% in 1992.2 In the last 70 years, many materials have been patented to be used as cigarette filters, but the most used have been paper, charcoal and cellulose acetate, which is currently the most common.2 Charcoal filters (CF) Cigarettes with CF had little acceptance by consumers due to the sensory change they produced in the smoker.2 They were used to trap and remove carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, cyanide hydrogen, aldehydes, volatile carbonyls, acroleins, and free radicals.2 Pauly et al.5 investigated whether the CF contained carbon granules on the cut surface of the filter and whether these granules were released while smoking
