Aiming at the key issues of the development and utilization of tobacco biological resources for non-cigarette manufacturing, the current status of foreign technology research and development is sorted out from the aspects of extraction of tobacco active substances and utilization of fiber materials, pointing out that: the active components of tobacco include nicotine, cannabinoid alcohol, polyphenols, proteins, tetraacyl sucrose esters and tobacco tissues (chloroplasts, mitochondria), etc.. Among these, the content and added value of nicotine, chlorogenic acid and cannabinoid alcohol are relatively high, and the extraction technology is more simple. These components have a significant market potential in the fields of pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and tobacco product additives, and have already been widely commercialized abroad. The utilization of fiber materials includes animal feed, fibrous material (paper, fiberboard, particleboard, nitrocellulose), oligosaccharides and biochar fertilizers. The primary directions for large-scale utilization of these materials are the production of biochar-based organic fertilizers, paper, and fiberboard, which are supported by relatively mature technologies. However, the cost associated with these processes remains relatively high, and there have been initial explorations into industrialization.. In the future, in order to further promote the development of the emerging industry of multi-purpose utilization of tobacco, in the scenario of novel tobacco product additives and pharmaceutical use, the extraction of nicotine, cannabinol and aroma-causing components of tobacco is an important research direction; in the scenario of feed application, the cultivation of new varieties of tobacco is an important direction of development; in the scenario of large-scale agricultural application, multi-functional coupling of organic fertilizer based on bio-carbon from tobacco waste resources is an important direction of development. In addition, within the scope of cost permitting, reinforced paper and fiberboard will also be one of the key R&D directions in the future.
To improve the processability and film-forming properties of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC),the effects of the blended ratios of GA and HPMC (0∶10,3∶7,4∶6,5∶5,6∶4,and 10∶0) on the microstructure,physical stability,and rheological properties of the GA-HPMC aqueous two-phase system were investigated by using zein-pectin composite particles as stabilizers.The results showed that adding 0.3% zein-pectin composite particles could reduce the phase separation rate and phase separation degree of GA and HPMC,and this stability effect was enhanced with increasing HPMC proportion (4%~7%);Under the same mass fraction of zein-pectin composite particles,these systems with proportion of GA<5% formed a water-in-water structure with GA as the dispersed phase and HPMC as the continuous phase,and with the increase of the GA ratio,the viscosity and gel strength of GAHPMC aqueous two-phase system increased;The gelling temperature (58.90~54.19℃) of the GA-HPMC aqueous two-phase system was significantly lower than that of pure HPMC solution (61.63℃),and its melting temperature (28.80~32.23℃) was positively correlated with the proportion of GA.The effect of the blended ratios on the stability and rheological properties of the GA-HPMC aqueous two-phase system showed an opposite trend,so a suitable blended ratio should be selected according to the actual requirements.
A heated cigarette end quality inspection system based on machine vision detection technology had been designed to address the difficulty of online detection of common quality defects such as cigarette deformation, hollowing, and looseness at the end of heated cigarettes. The system utilized hardware such as high-speed counting cards, industrial cameras, and flash controllers to complete image acquisition, and the Canny algorithm was used for cigarette contour detection and recognition in the industrial computer. Then, cigarette deformation was determined based on the mean and standard deviation of the contour radius, cigarette hollow was identified based on global threshold binarization, and cigarette hollow was identified based on local adaptive binarization. Based on the recognition results, the end defects of cigarette deformation, hollow, and loose were eliminated online. The performance of the binary algorithm used in the system and its practical application in production had been validated. The results showed that compared with OTSU, Bernsen, Niblack and other methods, global threshold binarization had the highest accuracy (99.8%) in empty detection, and adaptive binarization had the highest accuracy (99.0%) in empty detection; The system had a detection accuracy of ≥ 99% for defects such as deformation, hollowing, and looseness of heated cigarette ends, and had significant advantages in calculation time. It was suitable for high-speed operation requirements of production lines and can provide support for improving the quality of heated cigarette ends and production process control.
In order to improve the disadvantages of high cell wall content and inadequate aroma in the reconstruction tobacco stem (RTS) products, the original preparation process was optimized and adjusted. Specifically, a combinationof enzyme extraction was used instead of warm water extraction, supplemented with histidine Heyns compound(His-H) for backfilling and flavoring. The contents of cell wall materials and neutral flavor substances of RTS products were analyzed by NMR technology and GC / MS, respectively. The effects of new preparation process of RTS on the quality of last products were studied by sensory evaluation in RTS cigarettes. The results showed that the optimal enzyme extraction concentration was complex enzyme solution (0. 8% Ec+0. 4% Ep ) and the product was getting “soft” and “faded” after extraction. The sensory quality of RTS product with the addition of 0. 25% histidine Heyns compound was better than that of the control RTS. After process adjustment, the conventional chemical composition of two new reconstructed products remains coordinated. The contents of neutral flavor substances were increased by 27. 0% and the contents of cell wall materials of them were all decreased above 15. 0%. The sensory evaluation results also showed that the aroma volume of the new product increased significantly after process adjustment, which was better than the control product in terms of the permeability of the smoke, and therefore could significantly reduce the wood gas and improve the smoking quality.
To reveal the mass transfer mechanisms of heated cigarettes during puffing, we constructed dynamic models for the release kinetics of the cigarette core segment and mouthpiece retention segment, establishing a mass transfer model for key components of heated cigarettes. Using COMSOL Multiphysics software, we numerically solved the model to simulate the content and concentration fields of core and mouthpiece segments during each puffingcycle. Results indicated that the simulated residual amount of core segment key components during puffing closely matched experimental values, validating the dynamic model′s ability to reflect the release mechanisms of heated cigarette components. The simulated outlet release of gas phase components closely matched experimental values, validating the retention model′s ability to reflect the mouthpiece′s retention mechanism of gas phase componentsduring each puff. During puffing, the transfer efficiency of solid-phase materials near the heating element on the core segment′s outer wall was low. With increasing puffs, the concentrations of the three key components in the gas phase varied dynamically in the core and mouthpiece segments, with concentrations in the mouthpiece segment initially rising and then declining, while those in the core segment decreased from the second puff onwards. During single puffing, the concentrations of gas phase key components in the core and mouthpiece segments dynamically changed with variations in airflow velocity.
To explore the impact of radiative heat transfer on the temperature distribution and aerosol release in centrally heated cigarettes, a high-emissivity heating element was fabricated by coating a low-emissivity heating elementwith a silicone high-emissivity coating. The emissivity values of the high / low emissivity heating elements were measured, and simulations and measurements of the temperature distribution and actual temperatures at specific locationswithin the cigarette during heating with both types of elements were conducted. Additionally, the aerosol releaseof the heating device during the heating process were examined. The results showed that the emissivity values of the high / low emissivity heating elements were 90% and 10% respectively. After heating for 200 seconds using the same temperature curve setup, compared to the low-emissivity heating element, the internal average temperature of the cigarette heated by the high-emissivity heating element was higher (154. 1 ℃ ), with a smaller temperature difference from the heating element and a more uniform temperature distribution. When heated by the high-emissivityheating element, the total particulate matter, nicotine, and glycerol release in the cigarette aerosol increased by 42. 8%, 17. 6%, and 44. 5% respectively, compared to those heated by the low-emissivity heating element. These findings confirm that radiative heat transfer plays a crucial role in enhancing the heating efficiency of centrally heatedcigarettes, providing theoretical guidance and data support for the design and improvement of central heating tobaccodevices.
Wheat bran aleurone layer flour was used to replace part of the refined flour to make hand-grabbed cakes. The effects of the addition amount of wheat bran aleurone layer flour (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30%) on the characteristics of mixed flour, dough and the quality of hand-grabbed cake were investigated. The results showed that the wet gluten and gluten index, color, pasting properties, farinograph properties, tensile properties of the mixed flour, and oil content, edible quality of the hand-grabbed cake were determined and analyzed. The results showed that with the increase of the proportion of aleurone layer flour, The contents of protein, dietary fiber, a* and b* of the mixed flour increased, while the contents of ash, starch and L* of the mixed flour decreased; Water absorption, weakening degree and stability time of dough increased, while wet gluten content, gluten index, FQN, extension, peak viscosity and final viscosity of dough decreased; The hardness and chewiness of the hand-grasped cake increased, the color became darker, the oil content and elasticity decreased. When the addition amount was 0% to 10%, the hand-grabbed cake quality was well; When the addition amount was 15% to 20%, the hand-grabbed cake quality was still within the acceptable range, and after more than 20%, the quality deteriorates seriously. Compare to the hand-grabbed cake made by wheat flour that are absence of wheat bran aleurone layer flour, the hand-grabbed cake that contained 30% of wheat bran aleurone layer flour had lower oil content (13.92%). In conclusion, when the addition amount of wheat bran flour layer flour was less than 20%, the edibility of hand-grabbed cake was accepted by the human, and the oil content of hand-grabbed cake was also reduced.
Milk protein and pea protein were used as raw materials to produce milk-pea blended protein processed cheese. This study investigated the effect of three types of calcium sequestering salts (trisodium citrate (TSC), dibasic sodium phosphate (DSP), and sodium hexametaphosphate (SHMP)) at different mass fractions (0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0%) on the quality of the blended protein processed cheese based on functional properties, texture properties, sensory evaluation, and microstructure. The results showed that milk protein and pea protein could substitute for natural cheese in processed cheese formulations. As the mass fraction of the calcium sequestering salts increased, the meltability of the blended protein processed cheese demonstrated a consistent upward trend, accompanied by a reduction in fat separation, and the TSC had shown good effects in improving product melting characteristics and inhibiting oil precipitation. When the mass fraction of TSC was 1.0%, the hardness of the blended protein processed cheese was lower, whereas its total sensory score, elasticity, cohesiveness, and adhesiveness were higher. Meanwhile, casein network micelles were arranged in a regular pattern, with fat globules and minerals uniformly distributed throughout the matrix. Consequently, the incorporation of TSC could improve the quality of milk-pea blended protein processed cheese by enhancing its emulsification,stability and other functional characteristics.

The protein content was 5.51 g/100 g, fat content was 5.90 g/100 g, total phenolic content was 139.04 μg/mL, total flavonoid content was 258.98 μg/mL, the fat droplets were evenly distributed and had a smaller mean particle size (7.54 μm), the osmotic pressure (336.00 mmol/kg) was close to the human blood osmotic pressure, which could meet consumers' pursuit of sensory quality and health diet.
Soybean protein isolate (SPI), pea protein (PP) and chickpea protein (CP) were used as the main base materials, and wheat gluten (WG) was used as the auxiliary material, to study the effects of different plant protein compounds and ratios on the quality properties (sensory score, textural properties, texturization and microstructure) of plant-based meat. The results showed that the addition of WG could affect the sensory score of plant-based meat. For SPI plant-based meat, when the mass fraction of WG was 40%, the sensory score of plant-based meat was the highest ((68.68±0.85) points). For the SPI/WG system, the addition of PP increased the hardness of plant-based meat, while the addition of CP reduced the texturization of plant-based meat. For PP plant-based meat, when the mass fraction of WG was 10%, the sensory score of plant-based meat was the highest ((75.80±0.76) points). In the PP/WG system, as the SPI or CP addition increased, the tissue degree of plant-based meat decreased. For CP plant-based meat, when the mass fraction of WG was 30%, the sensory score of plant-based meat was the highest ((73.60±0.42) points). For the CP/WG system, the addition of PP or SPI could significantly reduce the hardness of plant-based meat. In the ternary protein compound plant-based meat, the PP/CP/WG (80∶10∶10) blend system had the highest sensory score ((77.30±0.57) points), hardness ((25.78±0.61) kg), and chewiness ((4.66±0.16) kg). Therefore, compounding different plant proteins was an effective method to improve the fiber structure and organization of plant-based meat. Therefore, compounding different plant proteins was an effective method to enhance the fibrous structure and texturization of plant-based meat.
The wheat Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptide was prepared by ultrasonic-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis method, and the inhibitory rate of ACE was the main index, and the degree of hydrolysis of gluten powder was the secondary index. The preparation process was optimized by single factor test and response surface method, and the stability of the inhibitory peptides was studied. The results showed that alkaline protease was suitable for enzymatic hydrolysis of gluten powder to produce wheat ACE inhibitory peptides. The optimal preparation conditions were ultrasonic time of 17 min, ultrasonic power of 300 W, enzymatic hydrolysis temperature of 60 ℃, enzymatic hydrolysis time of 2.7 h, enzyme dosage of 3600 U/g, and gluten powder mass fraction of 5.1%. Under these conditions, the ACE inhibition rate of the prepared wheat ACE inhibitory peptides was 72.90%, and the hydrophobic amino acid content was 29.37 g/100 g. When the relative molecular weight of the inhibitory peptides was less than 3 kDa, it had good environmental stability and thermal stability, and also had good stability in a certain concentration of K+ and Mg2+, and could still maintain 79.26% of the original activity after simulated digestion in vitro. Therefore, ultrasound-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis method is an effective method to prepare wheat ACE inhibitory peptides.
In order to expand the application range of chickpea protein isolate (CPI) and improve the stability of low oil emulsion systems, this study used CPI as an emulsifier in oil-in-water (O/W) type CPI emulsions and investigated the effect of ultrasound treatment (20 kHz, 450 W) with different durations (0 min, 3 min, 6 min, 9 min, and 12 min) on the stability of CPI emulsions. The results showed that ultrasound treatment could significantly improve the stability of CPI emulsions compared with the untreated CPI emulsions. At 12 min of ultrasound treatment, the emulsification activity index (EAI) and emulsion stability index (ESI) were increased to (51.67±0.12) m2/g and (99.32±0.13) min, respectively. The average particle size became the smallest ((3.52±0.25) μm), resulting in finer and more uniform oil droplets. The absolute value of zeta-potential was the largest (52.57±1.31 mV), the Turbiscan stability index (TSI) was the lowest, and the storage, thermal and freeze-thaw stability of the CPI emulsions were all improved. As revealed by cold-field electron microscopy, CPI emulsions treated by ultrasound had a dense and regular internal structure, with smaller droplets and less spacing. In conclusion, a certain duration ultrasound treatment could improve the stability of CPI prepared emulsions, and the better effect was achieved at 12 min of ultrasound treatment.
An overview of data fusion strategies based on spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, chromatography and other detection technologies and their current research and application in authenticity identification of edible oils was presented, pointing out that: at present, detection technologies widely used for authenticity identification of edible oils including spectroscopy, chromatography, mass spectrometry and electronic sensors. However, a single detection technique often focused only on a specific data or index, which could not fully eliminate the superposition effect, baseline drift and noise when the ingredients contained in edible oils were more complex. Data fusion strategies were categorized into three types: data layer fusion, feature layer fusion and decision layer fusion. Combined with chemometrics methods, the data obtained by different detection technologies could be integrated to obtain and extract richer data feature information, thus improving the authenticity identification of edible oils. Data fusion between various novel detection technologies, or between new and traditional spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, chromatography and other detection technologies, which could quickly and accurately achieved the identification of adulteration of edible oils, variety classification and origin traceability. In the future, in-depth research could be carried out on the improvement of the existing analytical methods, the development of new fusion algorithms combined with deep learning algorithms, and the introduction of cloud computing to improve real-time edible oil identification, so as to promote the development of data fusion strategy in the field of edible oil authenticity identification.
A modified QuEChERS method using magnetic graphene oxide as purification material was developed to determine four heterocyclic aromatic amines (IQ, Harman, Norharman and Phe-P-1) in ham sausage by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC). Analytical performance of this method was evaluated through methodological validation and applied to the detection of real samples. The results showed that compared with traditional purification materials, the prepared magnetic graphene oxide displayed considerable abilities of matrix purification and achieved satisfactory HAAs recoveries, which could be used as the purification material in the modified QuEChERS method. The optimal conditions for the modified QuEChERS method were as follows: alkaline acetonitrile (containing ammonium hydroxide with volume fraction of 1%) was used as the extraction solvent, the volume of water was 1 mL, the vortex extraction time was 5 min, the combination of anhydrous sodium sulfate/sodium chloride was chosen as the extraction salt with the dosage of 0.50 g/0.13 g, the centrifugation time was 3 min, the dosage of magnetic graphene oxide was 7.5 mg and the purification time was 1 min. Under these conditions, all the correlation coefficients (R2) for the targeted HAAs were greater than 0.9995. The recoveries of four HAAs at three spiked levels (low, medium and high) were 99.9%~104.3%, 101.2%~106.7% and 85.7%~101.2%, respectively. The limit of detection (LOD) was 0.71~1.52 ng/g. The limit of quantification (LOQ) ranged from 1.00 ng/g to 2.53 ng/g. The intra-day and inter-day precisions were less than 4.4% and 4.9% with good accuracy and precision. The four HAAs were not detected in any of the tested ham sausages. However, some unknown substances were found and their contents were higher than the LOQ of the established QuEChERS method. Compared with other commonly used sample pretreatment techniques, this method had advantages of speed, simplicity, low cost per sample and less organic solvents, which was suitable for the determination of HAAs in ham sausage.
Addressing the current reliance on manual subjective judgment and strong subjectivity for assessing the cleanliness of tobacco conveyor belts, a cleanliness classification model (ResNet24_SC_Block) for tobacco conveyor belt using an improved ResNet was proposed. This model uses ResNet for classification with a network depth of 24 layers. SE and CBAM attention mechanisms were introduced into the residual module to improve the model's ability to capture features such as conveyor belt color and adhesion smoke scale. Using the tobacco leaf conveyor belt dataset to experiment with this model, the experimental results showed that the average values of Accuracy, Precision, Recall and F1 of the improved ResNet24_SC_Block model were 98.8%, 98.8% and 98.4%, respectively, which were 3.3%~3.8% higher than those of ResNet18 model and ResNet34 model. Compared with classic and newer networks such as GoogLeNet model and RegNet model, it improves by 2.1% to 17.9%. And the number of model parameters was reduced by 31.6% compared with ResNet34 model. This approach offered notable advantages in accurately and efficiently assessing the cleanliness level of tobacco conveyor belts, making it highly consequential and practically valuable for intelligent upgrades in cigarette manufacturing plants.
To achieve accurate identification and efficient segmentation of adhesive tobacco shreds, a method for adhesive tobacco shreds recognition based on an improved Mask R-CNN (Mask Region-based Convolutional Neural Network) model was proposed. Firstly, adhesive tobacco shreds images were collected, and the dataset was augmented through image enhancement operations to expand it to the required sample size for training the model. Secondly, edge feature extraction and fractal feature extraction were performed on the adhesive tobacco shreds images in the training set based on Mask R-CNN, resulting in clearer and more continuous image edge features and texture feature information. Subsequently, the original features, edge features, and fractal features were fused to fully utilize features at different levels and enrich low-level features. Finally, by introducing a hybrid attention mechanism that focused on both channel and spatial dimensions of feature maps, the efficiency and accuracy of tobacco shred recognition were improved. Experimental results showed that the mean intersectionover union (Avg.MIoU) of the recognition method based on the improved Mask R-CNN model was 85.29%, and the mean class pixel accuracy (Avg.MPA) was 84.33%, under different adhesion conditions enabling precise identification of tobacco shreds and outperforming the original Mask R-CNN and DeepLabV3+ models. This method could rapidly and accurately identify and segment adhesive tobacco shreds, providing technical support for subsequent tobacco shred width detection.
To address the challenge of non-destructive detection of sucrose solution application in the tobacco leaf processing stage, a discrimination model for sucrose solution application based on hyperspectral imaging and machine learning had been developed. Hyperspectral data of tobacco leaf samples with varying sucrose solution applications were first acquired using a visible-shortwave infrared hyperspectral imaging system and preprocessed with standard normal variate (SNV). Four discrimination models for sucrose solution application were then constructed and validated using full-spectrum data and principal component analysis (PCA) reduced data, in conjunction with support vector machine (SVM), logistic regression (LR), multilayer perceptron (MLP), and random forest (RF). The results showed that SNV preprocessing significantly enhanced the feature concentration of the hyperspectral data. When modeling with full-spectrum data, the models in the shortwave infrared band demonstrated significantly higher prediction accuracy compared to those in the visible light band, with the LR model in the shortwave infrared band achieving the highest accuracy of 98.23%. Compared to full-spectrum data modeling, the prediction accuracy of models using the top 10 principal components from PCA reduced data showed little change in the shortwave infrared band, while the RF model's accuracy in the visible light band improved significantly to 71.43%. In the visible light band, the highest accuracy for PCA-reduced data models corresponded to 217, 55, 47, and 59 principal components, while in the shortwave infrared band, the numbers were 13, 11, 117, and 46, respectively. Overall, LR and RF models exhibited superior predictive perf ormance, with the LR model based on PCA-reduced data in the shortwave infrared band maintaining high accuracy with fewer principal components, demonstrating the capability for rapid, non-destructive, and precise determination of sucrose solution application on tobacco leaves.
To address the issues of complexity, low accuracy, high personnel requirements, and inability to adapt to the demand for large-scale real-time monitoring in the current detection methods for flavoring content and uniformity in tobacco, a characterization method for the uniformity of flavoring in tobacco based on hyperspectral detection had been developed. The method utilized a self-developed hyperspectral system to capture fluorescence hyperspectral images of tobacco before and after flavoring, and performed weighted unmixing on the fluorescence hyperspectral images. Based on the unmixing coefficients, a characterization index R for the content of flavoring applied to tobacco leaves was established, and the coefficient of variation (CV) of R was used to represent the uniformity of flavoring in the tobacco. Verification conducted on flavored tobacco leaves from actual production lines, it was found that the magnitude of R was positively correlated with the content of flavoring in the tobacco, and the CV could accurately determine the uniformity of flavoring in the tobacco. This method could be used for the detection and monitoring of flavoring quality of an known fragrance samples in the actual production process of tobacco.
In order to study the availability of maltol-β-D-glucoside in cigarette flavoring, a comparative study was conducted on the stability, thermal pyrolytic behavior rate and fragrance application effect of maltol and maltol-β-D-glucoside. The results showed that the placement stability and thermal stability of maltol-β-D-glucoside were significantly higher than those of maltol. The main thermal cracking product of maltol-β-D-glucoside was maltol. Adding maltol-β-D-glycoside to cigarettes in different ways could achieve different flavoring effects. The thermal decomposition transfer rate of maltol-β-D-glucoside to mainstream smoke particulate matter was 1.46%, which was lower than the transfer rate of maltol (3.83%). However, cigarettes with added maltol-β-D-glucoside had better aroma release uniformity and stability than those with maltol. Therefore, maltol-β-D-glucoside was a precursor of flavors with good stability and aroma uniformity, which had certain advantages in the field of cigarette flavoring.
To study the hygroscopicity of heated tobacco’s core materials, rolled tobacco sheet was taken as the research object, the effects of external environmental relative humidity, glycerol mass fraction and particle size of tobacco powder on its hygroscopicity were investigated through the single factor experiment. The differences in hygroscopicity of tobacco sheets prepared by rolling method, thick pulp method and paper making method were compared. The first-order and second-order adsorption kinetic models were used to fit and analyze the moisture absorption kinetic characteristics of rolled tobacco sheet. Further investigation was conducted on the hygroscopic thermodynamic properties of rolled tobacco sheet using six common adsorption models. The results showed that environmental relative humidity and mass fraction had the greatest impact on hygroscopicity, the higher the environmental relative humidity and the glycerol mass fraction, the stronger the hygroscopicity. The effect of particle size of tobacco powder on hygroscopicity was insignificant. The hygroscopicity of rolled tobacco sheet was comparable to that of tobacco slices produced by thick pulp method, and both were stronger than that of tobacco slices produced by paper making method. The moisture absorption time curve of rolled tobacco sheet was more in line with the second-order adsorption kinetics model, and its moisture absorption isotherm curve was more in line with the Peleg model.
A U-shaped fixed bed reaction system was used to conduct pyrolysis experiments on 35 types of cigar tobaccos from eight different regions at home and abroad. The produced volatiles were analayzed in real-time by photoionization mass spectrometry (PI-MS). The principal component analysis (PCA) method was used to statistically analyze the obtained MS datas. The results showed that a total of 74 shared pyrolysis products were identified in the 35 types of cigar tobaccos, mainly hydrocarbons, phenols, ketones, alcohols, esters, and nitrogen-containing substances. There were significant differences in the composition of pyrolysis products between domestic and foreign cigar tobaccos. Especially, the domestic cigar coats had a much higher content of nicotine than the foreign cigar coats, whereas the relative content of fragrant components such as methylcyclopentenone, 2,3-dimethyl-2-cyclopentenone, and 2,5-dimethylcyclopentenone in the pyrolysis products of domestic cigar coats was lower than that of foreign cigar coats. The relative content of fragrant components such as 3-methylpyridine, 2,5-dimethylcyclopentenone, and (+)-limonene in the pyrolysis products of domestic cigar chips was lower than that of foreign cigar chips. In addition, the characteristic pyrolysis products of cigar tobaccos screened by PCA were consistent with the results of routine chemical composition analysis of cigar tobaccos, confirming the accuracy of the experimental analysis results.
