TI  - [Thirdhand smoke: current research status and future prospects].
PG  - 295-8
AB  - Thirdhand smoke (THS) is defined as residual tobacco components that remain on 
      indoor surfaces after tobacco has been smoked, such as walls furniture, and dust 
      particles, which are re-emitted into the air. THS also includes secondary 
      pollutants generated from the reaction of surface residual smoke compounds with 
      reactive indoor air pollutants. THS is a new hidden health hazard, with infants 
      and children being most at risk of higher exposure. This article summarized the 
      aging process of secondhand smoke and the mechanism of generation of THS; 
      reviewed the current status of research on THS regarding its chemical 
      constituents, physical and chemical properties, biological toxicity, as well as 
      degree of pollution in China and other countries; and finally provided the 
      perspectives on the future study of THS.
