Talk:List of cigarette smoke carcinogens

message: I am not in favor of merging this page with the other. That page is a list of thousands of ingredients, and frankly I don't see the point in it. This page is a list of the ingredients that are known to be carcinogenic (which is obviously a much more serious issue). If they were merged such that the carcinogenic compounds were at the top, so as to be easily identified, I suppose it would be OK to merge. Zhinz 21:43, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge

message: I feel merging these two articles would be counterproductive as more evidence will arrive as to the number of additives in cigarettes (not tobacco) and more research needs to be done on the by-products of combusting these unnecessary additives. Again please refrain from associating pure tobacco with cigarettes. They are completely different products.
:+1 Cigarette ingredients and smoke constituents are two very different things. Popo le Chien 08:27, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Does anyone think it would make more sense to present the bulk of this material in chart form?  Similarly, I would also endorse the idea of creating an introduction, or expanding the introduction, depending on our collective opinion on whether one now exists.
:I have already taken the initiative of converting this list to table form. At least it would be presentable for whoever would make the chart for this. :) --Animeronin (talk) 14:06, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

message: The Wikipedia page on benzo[a]pyrene stated that cigarette smoke is one of its sources. Should it be added to the list?

message: Harms of Cigarette Smoking and Health Benefits of Quitting. National Cancer Institute. From the article: 
Yes. Tobacco smoke contains many chemicals that are harmful to both smokers and nonsmokers. Breathing even a little tobacco smoke can be harmful (1-4).
Of the more than 7,000 chemicals in tobacco smoke, at least 250 are known to be harmful, including hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide, and ammonia (1, 2, 5).
Among the 250 known harmful chemicals in tobacco smoke, at least 69 can cause cancer. These cancer-causing chemicals include the following (1, 2, 5):
    Acetaldehyde
    Aromatic amines
    Arsenic
    Benzene
    Benzo[α]pyrene
    Beryllium (a toxic metal)
    1,3–Butadiene (a hazardous gas)
    Cadmium (a toxic metal)
    Chromium (a metallic element)
    Cumene
    Ethylene oxide
    Formaldehyde
    Nickel (a metallic element)
    Polonium-210 (a radioactive chemical element)
    Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)
    Tobacco-specific nitrosamines
    Vinyl chloride
Maybe someone with more time than me can incorporate any missing chemicals into the article. Also, the link can be used as a reference. --Timeshifter (talk) 02:51, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
