Abstract Background Two validated and effective extraction techniques have been developed to ascertain the presence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in traditional cigarettes and E-cigarettes. PAHs are a class of chemicals that occur naturally, and these contaminants may cause cancer and other harmful effects in human beings. Traditional cigarettes and E-cigarettes contain many PAHs. Method In terms of linearity, limit of detection, limit of quantification, accuracy (%), and precision (%), the two in-house lab setups for 7PAHs extraction from traditional cigarettes and E-cigarette were validated using high-performance liquid chromatography-fluorescence detection. Results The concentration of Σ7PAHs for traditional cigarettes and E-cigarettes ranged from 6.23 ± 0.04 ng/cig to 75.61 ± 0.02 ng/cig, and non-detectable to 3.56 ± 2.71 ng/puff. The PAHs recovery in traditional cigarettes and E-cigarettes ranged from 92.74–110.45%, and 97.20–111.74%. The toxicity of equivalent (TEQs) of carcinogens revealed that traditional cigarettes brands have higher TEQs than E-cigarettes. Conclusion This study highlights the detection of 7PAHs levels and its risk assessment in product brands for traditional cigarettes and E-cigarettes marketed in Saudi Arabia. The results suggested that the developed methods are a precise and versatile approach for measuring 7PAHs in traditional cigarettes and E-cigarettes. |
