The most appropriate methods of studying biologic
effects of tobacco smoke in experimental animals are necessarily
those which are based on chronic inhalation and, thus, sisr:ulate
the conditions existing in the human smoker. In order to make
such chronic inhalation studies as significant as possible, it is
necessary to adhere to one of the main principles of chronic toxi-
cologic experimentatior., that is to use dose levels in animals
wh°:ch are many times higher than those safely tolerated by hu^:an
subjects.
I
: or oractica: p_:rposes, there are strineer.t lir::iz-
tions, ^owever, tc the use of high concentrations of smoice in an:-
r.:als. As it is well r::.own, tobacco smoke is a very complex

to:.icir;, also conta:::s some s::bstar.ces of extremely hi?:^n acute

The avaiiability of numerous highly inbred lines
of han:sters was an important feature in the planning and exec;:-
tiorn of the present study. Inbred animals are, indeed, of the
most beneficial influence, since reproducibility of the results
in animal experimentatio.^n is possible only with the use of in-
bred lines, where changes in genetic influences with time, as
well as changes fror : one animal to another, are reduced to a
.^.:iniznum. Reproducibility is, thus, at an optimum wher. inbred
lines oi anir.:als are used, althou¢h it may occasionally be
achie ved to so:ne deEree even with noninbred animals.

Animals -A11 hamsters used were Bio?-Hamsters;
they were obtained com.::iercially from TEL.ACO in Bar Harbor,
Maine. Two inbred lines of hamsters, i. e. Bio1F 15. 16 and Biol
87.20, were selected for the chronic studies frorr. among a total
of five lines (four inbred and one noninbred lines), according to
their tolerance to nicotine and whole smoke, determined in pre-
liminary acute toxicity tests. All hamsters weighed 108 = 4 grams
when ch ron'c smcfe exposure was started.
Cn1} :::ale animals were used in the present st.:cy ,
because :: aie : a:::sters, ;:alike males of other rodents used in
laboratorv work, are less belligerent than female hamsters. = or
this reason, multiple male hamsters can be housed in one ca¢e
without eccu:r:- ar.:or.g the anir :ais, whereas fer::a:e
l:amsters ca_s_ - iuries or even deat'rh to their cage mates ar_

Acute nicotine toxicity - Ten male hamsters iro^:
each of five lines, weighing from 100 to 120 g(aporoximatel;: t^ree
months of age), received intraperitoneal injections of nicotine tar-
trate at five different dose levels. The dose necessarv to kill 50=':
of the animals (LD50) within 30 minutes (no animals died from r.ico-
tine toxicity after that length of time) was determined by interpola-
tion of re¢ressicn lines cor.:outed for the relationshio between lcza-
rithmm of the dose (expressed in mg per kg of body weight) and percent

determinations were made in male rats (Charles River CD rats,
six weeks old, with body weights ranging from 100 to 120 g), as
well as in male mice (Charles River CD- 1 mice, three months olc;.
Generation of cigarette smoke - In both acute and
chronic inhalation studies, Walton- Morrissey reverse smoking
machines (U. S. Patents \os. 3, 476, 119 and 3, 528, 435) were usec
to produce smoke from cigarettes. The principle of reverse sme:;-
ing consists in air being pushed through the cigarettes by appl;:ing
positive press,-re at the burning end, rather thar. beine sucked
through the cizarettes by creating negative pressure at the r: out:.
end, as is the case in :: e conventional smoking machine, or in t:a:

were ..n contact with smoke ar.d (2) their bodies were not encasec
in narrow tubes, thus protecting the animals against excessive
sweating and minimizing the stress imposed on them. In this r^an -
ner, six animals could be exposed to smoke simultaneously.
Smoke was generated from IRI Kentucky referer.ce
cigarettes and was administered to the animals in 60-second puff
cycles. Each puff cycle consisted of a two-second period of smc::e
generatior., followec by a 15- second period of additional smoke ex-
posure and a=3-secor.d period of exposure to fresh air (to rr.inim:ze
the toxic effects c-' carbon monoxide). Four cigarettes were srr.c:<2c

simultaneously; after one set of cigarettes had been consumed te
the desired butt length, or had been smoked for a predetermined
number of puffs, another set of four cigarettes was started, and
their first puff was generated exactly 60 seconds after the last
puff of the previous set of cigarettes.
During the two-second period of smoke generation,
a volume of 35 ml of air was pushed through each of the four si-
multaneously smoked cigarettes, after they had been lighted with
the first puf:. Hence, a total of 140 ml of smoke was introduced
into the expos,:re c'.^.amber, where a magnetic stirrer instantane-
ously causec eeua'. cistribution of the smoke throughout this cha- -
ber. The latter :ac a ca?acit of 725 ml and, her.ce, the smoke

concentration :nhalec bv the ar.imals was, approximately 19.2To of

studies, cigarettes were smo::ed to a bstt length of 30 mni, thus pro-
ducing ten puffs or ten consecutive smoking cycles from each ciga-
rette, i. e. from each set of four cigarettes smoked simultaneously.
All ten puffs of smoke were offered, one by one, to the test animals.
Survival time cf each animal under these conditions was recorded.
Chronic inaalation study - Before the actual chronic
inhalation sn:dy was started, a preliminary chronic study was per-
formed to establish conditions under which the mortality of the test
animals during the initial weeks or months would be negligible. It
-

was, thus, four.d t:at appr oxirnately 517o of the exposure time, at
which 50°0 of the anir: als died in the acute experiment, constituted
the upper safe limit of smoke inhalation which caused no mortality
when the animals were exposed repeatedly, i. e. twice a day, five
days a week. This limit, like the mearn survival time in the acute
experiment, depended to some extent on the strain of hamsters.
For obvious reasons, the exposure conditions suitable for the mos:
sensitive stra:n were used for all strains in the long-term study.

Since :: was not possible to obtain the recuired nu:::-
ber of hamsters from each inbred line (222 animals) at the same
time so that all animals would be of the same age and weight, the
experiment was started gradually, as hamsters became available,
but always in lots of six a:.irr.als. In this manner, the beginning
of smoke exposure was staggered over a period of about 37 weeks.
Inasmuch as possible, for approximately every two lots of six
hamsters starte,_4 in the experimental groups, one lot of six ani-
mais in each of t^e two control groups with the same inbred line

When the results from both studies on the acute
toxicitv of iatraperitoneally injected nicotine tartrate and acute
s::zoke ir.:-:ala:ior. toxicity are taken into account, there remains
no doubt that the 15. 16 line of inbred hamsters is the most appro-
priate experimental at:irr:al model among the species and strains
of rodents studied (see summary data in Table V). It is also aD-
oarent that the 82. 62 and 87.20 inbred lines of hamsters share
t: e second place with respect to tolerance toward nicotine admin-
istratio^ cr w:^.ole smoke ir.halation. Since the animals from the
82. 62 strain are known to exhibit a high incidence of cardiomyo-

the difference between sr::oke-exposed and cage-held control ::arr:-
sters became much more important in the 87.20 than in the 15. 16

did not affect, however, the mortality of the animals.
Exoosure to sham-smoking conditions yielded bod.
weights that were intermediate between those of the smoke-exoosec
hamsters and of the cage-held control animals in the 15. 16 line,

after smoke exposure, four hours later (just before the second ex-
posure of the day), 24 hours later (before exposure on the follow-
ing day), as well as on a Monday morning before exposure (after
srr:oke inhalation, twice a day, on four days during the preceding
week). The animals used for this purpose were not the same as

were given a muc: ::igier smoke exposure than the latter (20 min-
utes of exposure tu-ice a day, as opposed to eight minutes twice a
day, each minute consisting of 17 seconds of 1:5.2 diluted smoke
and 43 seconds oi fresn air inhalation in both instances). It was
known that such severe conditions of smoke inhalation, as admin-
istered in the blood carbon monoxide study, would not allow the
animals to survive ::tore than a few weeks. In addition, subjectio :

the 87. 20 line was considerably higher under these conditions than
in the 15. 16 line of hamsters. It may be assumed that this differ-
ence between the two inbred strains was not related to the toxic ef-
fects of carbon monoxide, but rather to those of other smoke in-
gredients, possibly including nicotine (see the higher susceptibilit;
of the 87.20 hamster to ir.traperitoneally adr.zir.istereC nicotine

shorter tirr.e Deriocs, i. e. for only eight minutes, twice a da;:, as
used in the chronic in: alation study, may thus be assumed to cause
no lasting accu_-nulation of carbon monoxide in the blood of the ex-
perimental animals. This was actually confirmed experimentally
in a few anirnals of both inbred lines, as seen from the data in Ta-

weights of their organs are shown in Tables IX and X.
The fact that the organs of the initial control ar.i-
mals (identified as Groups CC and FF) were significantly lighter
in many ir.stances than those of the animals from all other groups,
can be interpreted simply on account of age differences. These
findings were to be expected and are without importance.
Apart from these organ weight differences, d.:e to
age differe::::a:s c: t.^e anir::ais, there were only a few instanc_s

(3) The increase in relative organ
weights with advancin g age was particularly marked in the case
of the kidneys, and was equally observed in both inbred strains;
this was due to deposition of amyloid; renal amyloidosis was, in
fact, the leading cause of death in hamsters in this experiment.
(4) In the adrenals, the increase in
relative organ weight upon aging in both inbred hamster strains
was the conseoLence of a variety of processes which could be rec-
ognized microscopically. The prevalence of these age changes
precluded use o_' &crenal weight as a measure of stress.

"AB cell hyper?lasia" in various strains of mice. A strair. differ-
ence in this phenomenon was noted (as has been seen in mice also).
AB cell hyperplasia was about twice as common in 15. 16 hamsters

again, was more crevalent ir. the 15. 16 harr:sters. Both strains

Hamsters of the 15. 10 line appeared to respond more markedlJ to
smoke ir_:alation tharn those of the other strain by producing more

more of the malignant or oremali¢nant type. Nasopharyngeal t,:-
mors have only been oDserved in hamsters of the 15. 16 line. In
addition, myocardial degeneration and increases in heart weights
as consequences of smoke inhalation have been noted essentially
in hamsters of the 15. lb line and not at all, or to a much lesser
extent, irn those of the other line.
On the other hand, smoke-exposed hamsters of
the 87 .20 ir.bred line have shown more frequent and larger num-
oers of ciL.^.:ped macrophages in the lungs, as well as a higher
frequency o: scuaraous rnetaplasia in tne trachea and bronchi,

D. L^.fluence of smoke inhalat:on ov hamsters on their mortalitti`
Since smoke inhalation does not appear to reduce
the lon¢evi:}- of hamsters of these two lines, greater numbers of
animals were actually available for histologic studies in the ex-
perimental than in the control groups. The design of future ex-
oeriments will have to take this point into consideration, and
larger numbers of ara.:,als will have to be included in the cor.trol
groups.
_. Si¢^:_:_a::ce of :r.e proper control eroups
The practice o: maintaining simultaneous control
Zrouos of :a:: sters i n this experiment, including a group of ani-
::als exoosed to sTMokit:g" conditions, was most valaaole

:, o: tne :nrec hamster for smoke inhalatior s' ~es
The re:::arkably high tolerance to the toxic e?fects
of innalatiorn of cigarette smoke of ha-nster s in general, and of
certain inbred hamster strains in particular, bears resemblar.ce
to an equally high threshold of nicotine toxicity of hamsters, as
compared to mice and rats (Table V, Figures 1 and 2). For th:s
reason, the dose of cigarette smoke that can be safely withstood
by the hamster is consideraol.: higher than t..at which can be ad-
ministered to other rodents. Conseque ntly, a faster and/or more
marked response to cigarette smoke inhalation is produced in tr.e
hamster t:an in mice or rats. This advantage is further enhazcec
by the use of inbred strains of hamsters, where one or the otn er
