Exposure to snuff smoke in non-smokers fell by 90 percent after tobacco control laws in Spain

A biomarker of exposure to snuff smoke in non-smokers has been reviewed in a new study, and also their perception before and after the entry into force of two Spanish laws. Law 28/2005 which entered into force in January 2006 partially prohibited the consumption of snuff in public.
