JP5860904B2 - Cigarette odor bad breath fragrance composition - Google Patents

Description

  The present invention relates to a fragrance composition for improving cigarette smell and bad breath.

  Conventionally, in order to deodorize the cigarette odor, a technique for carrying a specific deodorizing component on a cigarette filter or wrapping paper is known (see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. 7-250665 and 2009-179708). However, all of these techniques deodorize odors directly generated from tobacco, and do not attempt to improve tobacco bad breath. In fact, the use of the deodorant component disclosed in the above-mentioned document as it is does not achieve the deodorization of tobacco odor. To improve tobacco odor, it is necessary to consider the desorption of perfume ingredients in the oral cavity.

  On the other hand, with the recent increase in awareness of bad breath, techniques related to bad breath improving fragrances and deodorants have been developed (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 2005-289918, 2005-170906, 2003-175095, And JP 2009-190990 A). Moreover, the technique regarding the fragrance | flavor for masking the bad breath containing a tobacco odor is also disclosed (refer Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 2004-18431). However, when these bad breath improving fragrances and deodorants are added to tobacco as they are, it is necessary to add a large amount of a component that emits a strong fragrance, and the original flavor of tobacco is impaired. In other words, the tobacco odor bad breath improving fragrance added to the tobacco is required to show the effect of improving the tobacco bad breath with a very small amount. In addition, although the method of including these bad breath improving fragrance | flavor and a deodorizer in a mouth after smoking is also considered, operation | movement is needed after smoking in this case, and it is not preferable. As described above, in the conventional technology, it is not sufficiently achieved to improve the tobacco bad breath associated with smoking in one operation of smoking while ensuring the tobacco flavor.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a fragrance composition for improving tobacco odor and bad breath, which can improve tobacco odor and bad breath with a relatively small amount of addition, and does not impair the original flavor of tobacco, and a smoking article comprising such a fragrance composition. That is.

  Furthermore, the tobacco odor and bad breath improving fragrance composition of the present invention may contain other components in addition to the above fragrance components. Examples of such other components include aliphatic chain alcohols other than the above fragrance components, terpene alcohols, terpene aldehydes, terpene esters, aliphatic esters, terpene ketones, aromatic ketones And fragrance components of terpene hydrocarbons, terpene ethers and aliphatic esters.

  According to the other aspect of this invention, the smoking article which carry | supported said tobacco odor habit improvement fragrance | flavor composition is provided. The tobacco odor and odor improving fragrance composition of the present invention can be added to tobacco in any step in which a fragrance is usually added to tobacco. Moreover, although the tobacco odor bad breath improvement fragrance | flavor composition of this invention may be added to the final smoking article (cigarette etc.) by any density | concentration, Preferably, it is 0.5 mg or more and 15 mg or less with respect to 1g of tobacco materials. More preferably, it is added at a rate of 0.5 mg or more and 5 mg or less with respect to 1 g of tobacco material. As the tobacco material, any tobacco material such as leaf tobacco (yellow species, Burley species, Orient species, etc.), sheet tobacco and the like can be used, and these tobacco materials are usually used for smoking articles in the form of cuts. The nicks may be in an expanded form. Moreover, the tobacco odor bad breath improvement fragrance | flavor composition of this invention may be added to any position of a tobacco material and material goods (cigarette filter etc.).

  The present inventors considered that in order to improve tobacco odor and bad breath, it is necessary that the fragrance composition be discharged into the breath. That is, some fragrances volatilize before reaching the mouth and others remain in the mouth without being expelled after reaching the mouth. If the fragrance is not discharged into the exhaled air, it is considered that it is not suitable as a fragrance composition for improving cigarette smell and bad breath even if it has a high masking effect.

  The present inventors conducted chemical analysis on a number of known fragrance ingredients, and measured the release rate L of the fragrance ingredients into the breath 3 minutes after smoking.

The exhalation release rate L (%) is calculated by dividing the fragrance component concentration C _ex (area / mL) in the exhalation by the fragrance component concentration C _ms (area / mL) in the mainstream smoke and multiplying by 100. area is the peak integration area by GC / MS analysis.

  If the value of the release rate L during expiration is 0.1% or more, the amount of fragrance discharged during expiration is guaranteed to improve tobacco odor and bad breath within the range of the amount of fragrance added permissible for tobacco design. I found out that I can do it.

  Moreover, it was found that the fragrance components having an exhalation release rate L of 0.1% or more can be classified into two groups in which the vapor pressure Vp and the water / octanol partition coefficient P are in a certain range. That is, the fragrance component A satisfying 2 ≦ Vp <210 and 1.5 ≦ logP ≦ 6.5, and the fragrance component B satisfying 210 ≦ Vp ≦ 10000 and −1 ≦ logP ≦ 3.

  Furthermore, each of the fragrance component A and the fragrance component B was selected with a component having a particularly great effect on improving bad breath by sensory evaluation (sensory evaluation method will be described later).

Here, since the fragrance | flavor component A and the fragrance | flavor component B differed in those physical properties, they assumed that the behavior in a mouth was different and it contributed differently with respect to tobacco odor bad breath improvement. Specifically, since the fragrance component B has a relatively high vapor pressure, it is expected that it contributes to the effect of improving the bad breath immediately after smoking (hereinafter referred to as the “rise effect”). Further, since the fragrance component A has a relatively low vapor pressure, it is expected that it contributes to the long-term bad breath improving effect (hereinafter referred to as “sustained effect”) of tobacco bad breath. Table 1 shows the characteristics of the perfume component A and the perfume component B. In addition, the component which is not contained in the fragrance | flavor component A and the fragrance | flavor component B, ie, the component whose vapor pressure is comparatively high and is relatively hydrophobic, volatilizes in the middle of smoking, many cannot reach the mouth, and vapor pressure is compared. A component that is relatively low and relatively hydrophilic reaches the mouth, but is not discharged into the exhaled breath while being dissolved in moisture in the mouth, so it is considered that it does not contribute to the effect of improving bad breath.

  Therefore, as will be described later, a combination perfume only of perfume component A or perfume component B (comparative example) and a combination perfume of perfume component A and perfume component B (Example) are prepared, and the degree of improvement in tobacco odor and bad breath Sensory evaluation. As a result, it was found that a combination of the fragrance component A and the fragrance component B can exhibit a sufficient tobacco odor bad breath improvement effect in a small amount as compared with the case of the fragrance component A alone or the fragrance component B alone.

Therefore, the method for selecting a fragrance composition for improving cigarette odor and bad breath according to the present invention includes a step of analyzing the amount of mainstream smoke and the amount of release in breath, and the concentration of the fragrance component C _ex (area / mL) in the breath. And selecting a fragrance component having a release rate L in expiration calculated by dividing by fragrance component concentration C _ms (area / mL) and multiplying by 100. More preferably, the method also includes a step of selecting a fragrance component having a cigarette odor bad breath improvement effect from the selected fragrance component based on a sensory evaluation result of the odor intensity of the cigarette odor bad breath.

  Furthermore, when the weight of the fragrance component A is larger than the weight of the fragrance component B (A> B), the cigarette odor bad breath improvement effect is particularly large as compared with the case where it is less or equal (A ≦ B). all right.

  This has made it possible to improve the tobacco bad breath without losing the original flavor of tobacco.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail.

(1) Calculation method of release rate in exhalation (1.1) The release rate L (%) of the fragrance component into the exhalation 3 minutes after smoking is mainly the fragrance component concentration C _ex (area / mL) in the exhalation It is a value obtained by dividing the fragrance component concentration in the smoke by C _ms (area / mL) and multiplying by 100.

(1.2) Sampling method (1.2.1) Cigarette preparation All cigarettes used in the analysis are commercially available cigarettes “Seven Star Light Box”. Immediately before the fragrance was analyzed, a fragrance diluted with ethanol was added to the chopsticks and used for the test. Specifically, 10 μL of a solution in which 20 to 30 fragrance components were mixed at a concentration of 100 μg / 10 μL each was added in increments.

(1.2.2) Collection of exhalation The experimenter rinses the mouth with water and rinses before smoking. Then smoke the cigarette. The smoking interval is 30 seconds and the number of smoking puffs is 7. After smoking, a collection tube (two connected TENAX-TA) is added to the mouth, and the head space (exhaled breath) in the oral cavity is collected at 100 mL / min by a pump. The exhalation collection time is 1 minute from 3 minutes after the end of smoking. After the collection, nitrogen gas is aerated at 100 mL / min for 4 minutes in order to volatilize moisture that hinders analysis.

(1.2.3) Mainstream smoke collection Mainstream smoke is collected using a smoker composed of a mass flow controller and a pump. The smoking interval is 30 seconds and the smoking flow rate is 55 mL / 2 sec. It will not collect until the third puff after ignition. The 4th puff mainstream smoke is vented to the collection tube (TENAX-TA).

(1.3) Gas chromatograph / mass spectrometry (GC / MS)
Analysis was performed by GC / MS with an additional thermal desorption system (TDS), cooling injection system (CIS), and low temperature trap system (CTS).

(2) Sensory evaluation method of fragrance components A and B A smoker collects exhaled breath after smoking in a bag made of a polyester film, and the smoker himself performs sensory evaluation of the bag as another odor. For details of the evaluation method, refer to “Oral Odor Examination Manual” First Dental Publication and “Report on Utilization of Simple Odor Evaluation Technology”, Measurement and Evaluation Committee of Odor and Kaori Environment Association, and Odor Simple Evaluation Technology Standardization Study Group.
