This project aims to provide objective data on tobacco and nicotine consumption through the analysis of biomarkers in wastewater of different countries in the Pacific region
This project investigates how the use of traditional tobacco and emerging nicotine products (such as e-cigarettes) changes in response to different government regulations across various Pacific Rim countries. By monitoring these consumption patterns over time, the research assesses whether specific legislative actions—such as tax increases or product bans—are successfully reducing nicotine consumption on the ground.
