LIP OCCLUSION :
DR. MERHOLZ STUDIED 161 SUBJECTS. THE OBJECTIVE WAS TO
MEASURE HOW DEEP C I GARETTES ARE HAB I TUALLY 1 NSERTED BETWEEN
THE SMOKERS' LIPS, AND WHETHER OR NOT THE PPA HOLDER
INTERFERS SIGNIFICANTLY WITH THE CIGARETTE HOLDING PATTERN
OF SMOKERS.

A MEASUREMENT OF THE INSERTION DEPTH WAS MADE WHICH WAS
BASED ON NINHYDRIN STAINING OF THE TIPPING PAPER.
THIS STUDY WAS CARRIED OUT BY THE GERMAN INSTITUTE GFK (WITH
AND WITHOUT USE OF A PPA INSTRUMENT)_
THE MAXIMUM REAL INSERTION DEPTH

N.B_: AS A RULE, THE FILTER VENTILATION ZONE IS LOCATED AT A
DISTANCE OF 12 - 14mm FROM THE MOUTH-END OF THE FILTER
