Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an oral smokeless dissolvable compressed tobacco product.
  • a number of oral smokeless non-dissolvable tobacco products that include an insoluble residual component that is disposed of by a consumer after use are known in the art.
  • Known smokeless non-dissolvable tobacco products include: plug, twist, and loose leaf chewing tobacco; dry snuff; moist snuff, which typically contains finely cut fermented moist tobacco; loose or portioned snus, which typically contains finely ground moist tobacco; and tobacco-containing chewing gum.
  • a number of oral smokeless dissolvable tobacco products that dissolve in the mouth of a consumer are also known.
  • smokeless dissolvable compressed tobacco products in the form of pills, tablets and lozenges which comprise powdered or ground tobacco together with other ingredients.
  • Raw, unprocessed tobacco may contain increased levels of viable bacteria. As smokeless dissolvable compressed tobacco products dissolve and the tobacco in such products is ingested by the consumer, it would be desirable to provide an improved method for treating a smokeless dissolvable compressed tobacco product for oral use.
  • a smokeless dissolvable compressed tobacco product comprising: a pasteurised tobacco component, wherein the substantially aseptic smokeless dissolvable compressed tobacco product has a total aerobic microbial count of less than 2 log cfu/g.
  • a method of making a smokeless dissolvable compressed tobacco product having a total aerobic microbial count of less than 2 log cfu/g comprises: pasteurising a tobacco component to reduce the total aerobic microbial count to less than 2 log cfu/g and the total yeast and mould count to less than 2 log cfu/g; mixing the pasteurised tobacco component with one or more non-tobacco components; and compressing the pasteurised tobacco component and one or more non-tobacco components to form a smokeless dissolvable compressed tobacco product.
  • the total aerobic microbial count is measured in accordance with the Nordic Committee on Food Analysis (NMKL) method No 86, 4. Ed., 2006 and the total yeast and mould count specified is measured in accordance with NMKL method No 98, 4. Ed., 2005.
  • the NMKL method No 86, 4. Ed., 2006 is used to determine the aerobic plate count by preparing a dilution series of sample material according to general microbiological principles, followed by pour-plating into an agar medium in Petri dishes. In this method, the samples are incubated under aerobic conditions at either 30°C for 3 days, 20°C for 3 days, or 6.5°C for 10 days.
  • the yeast and mould count is determined by surface inoculation of appropriate dilution series on dichloran rose bengal agar (DRBC), dichloran glycerol agar (DG18) or oxytetracykline glucose yeast extract agar (OGYE) dependent on which matrix are analysed.
  • DRBC dichloran rose bengal agar
  • DG18 dichloran glycerol agar
  • OYE oxytetracykline glucose yeast extract agar
  • the tobacco component may be pasteurised using any suitable technique provided that the pasteuriation parameters such as temperature and time are sufficient to reduce the total aerobic microbial count of the tobacco component to less than 2 log cfu/g and the total yeast and mold count of the tobacco component to less than 2 log cfu/g to render the tobacco component substantially aseptic.
  • Suitable pasteurisation techniques include, but are not limited to, single hot steam injection, repeated hot steam injection and indirect heating.
  • the tobacco component is pasteurised by hot steam injection, more preferably by repeated hot steam injection.
  • the step of pasteurising the tobacco component comprises direct heating of the tobacco by hot steam injection to a temperature of between about 100°C and about 120°C for a period of between about 1 minute and about 30 minutes. More preferably, the step of pasteurising the tobacco component comprises direct heating of the tobacco component by repeated hot steam injection to temperatures of at least about 100°C.
  • the heat treament of the tobacco component during pasteurisation advantageously results in the formation of tobacco-derived flavourings.

  • the pH of the pasteurised tobacco component may be adjusted prior to compressing the pasteurised tobacco component and one or more non-tobacco components to form the smokeless dissolvable compressed tobacco product.
  • the pH of the pasteurised tobacco component is adjusted to between about 7.5 and about 8.9.
  • the pH of the pasteurised tobacco component may be adjusted through the addition of one or more acidity regulators.
