I will forward this to Dr. Richard Olmstead who used a large venting device in his studies (he is also key member if not head of an IRB).
For an echo study (80s at UCLA; cigarette vs. nicotine gum), we got a Ronco ashtray to limit smoke from the cigarette. It was switched on and after a puff, the S placed the cigarette on the ashtray and smoke from the cigarette was drawn in. Sounds ridiculous but (see old YouTube ads) we did limit exposure from the burning cigarette in test area - albeit we only tested 1 S a day and only used 1 cigarette.

Colleagues – I am attempting to establish a university-based smoking laboratory at Washington State University. I know that laboratory-based cigarette smoking is a pretty common procedure but I am running into some questions from our environmental health folks about how these protocols can be conducted in such a way that second hand smoke exposure is not an issue, etc. I had proposed using an empty laboratory room with an externally vented fume hood but this has not met with much institutional support. If any of you have suggestions I would be most appreciative. Also, if you have any individuals I might refer my environmental health folks to that would be much appreciated.
Regards,
John
