Smoore aims to reduce addiction to e-cigarettes.
Smoore aims to lower nicotine levels in e-cigarettes to non-addictive levels through scientific research with animal brains.

Smoore, a company in the e-cigarette industry, stated that there is a need to find opportunities to reduce the nicotine content in e-cigarettes to a non-addictive level.


The Smoore scientific project, a collaboration between the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology (SIAT) and Neera (Shenzhen Neera Neuroplasticity Laboratory), is set to investigate the secretion and metabolic processes in the brains of animals. Using the information obtained, the aim is to replicate human nicotine dependency.


As part of an experiment, a laboratory sponsored by Nobel Prize winner Dr. Erwin Neera will subject test subjects to exposure of aerosols from electronic cigarettes and traditional combustible tobacco. Researchers will monitor nicotine absorption processes in various organs. The ultimate goal of the study is to reduce the nicotine content in Smoore products to levels that will not cause dependence in smokers.


It is expected that the results of scientific research will also reduce the impact of electronic cigarettes on health, and there are plans to optimize nicotine delivery mechanisms. Smoore will submit preliminary results by the end of this year. The first report will describe the differences in the effects of nicotine on the brain between electronic cigarettes and traditional cigarettes.
