VAPORIZED TOBACCO PRODUCT AND METHODS OF USE
In one embodiment of the present invention a method for tobacco delivery is provided comprising: providing tobacco; providing a first solution; contacting the tobacco with the first solution to form a tobacco solution comprising tobacco constituents; and vaporizing the tobacco solution. In other aspects of this embodiment the step of vaporizing the tobacco solution comprises using a low temperature vaporization element to vaporize the tobacco and the tobacco constituents comprise nicotine and at least one monoamine oxidase inhibitor derived from tobacco.
1 . A method for tobacco delivery comprising:
providing tobacco;
providing a first solution;
contacting the tobacco with the first solution to form a tobacco solution comprising tobacco constituents; and
vaporizing the tobacco solution.
2 . The method of claim 1 wherein the first solution comprises an inert non-reactive compound.
3 . The method of claim 2 where the inert non-reactive compound comprises propylene glycol.
4 . The method of claim 3 wherein the first solution further comprises water, alcohol and glycerin.
5 . The method of claim 1 wherein the step of vaporizing the tobacco solution comprises low temperature vaporization of the tobacco solution.
6 . The method of claim 1 wherein the tobacco constituents comprise nicotine and at least one monoamine oxidase inhibitor derived from tobacco.
7 . A device for tobacco delivery comprising:
a first solution reservoir comprising a first solution;
tobacco;
a vaporization mechanism,
wherein the solution is contacted with the tobacco to form a tobacco solution comprising tobacco constituents, and wherein the tobacco solution is then provided to the vaporization mechanism.
8 . The device of claim 7 where the vaporization mechanism comprises low temperature vaporization of the tobacco solution.
9 . The device of claim 8 wherein the tobacco constituents comprise nicotine and at least one monoamine oxidase inhibitor derived from tobacco.
10 . A tobacco solution prepared by a process comprising the steps of:
providing tobacco;
providing a first solution comprising water, alcohol, and propylene glycol;
contacting the first solution with the tobacco to form a tobacco solution comprising tobacco constituents.
11 . The tobacco solution of claim 10 wherein the step of contacting the first solution with the tobacco to form a tobacco solution comprises immersing the tobacco in the first solution for a time sufficient to extract the tobacco constituents from the tobacco.
12 . The tobacco solution of claim 10 wherein the tobacco constituents comprise nicotine and at least one monoamine oxidase inhibitor derived from tobacco.
13 . A tobacco solution for use in a vaporization delivery mechanism comprising:
water;
alcohol;
propylene glycol;
glycerin, and
tobacco constituents.
14 . The tobacco solution of claim 13 wherein the tobacco constituents comprise nicotine and at least one monoamine oxidase inhibitor derived from tobacco.
15 . The tobacco solution of claim 14 wherein the tobacco constituents are derived by contacting the water, alcohol, propylene glycol and glycerin with tobacco.
16 . A device for tobacco delivery comprising:
the tobacco solution of claim 13 ,
a vaporization mechanism.
17 . The device of claim 16 where the vaporization mechanism comprises a low temperature vaporization element to vaporize the tobacco solution.
18 . A disposable cartridge for use in a tobacco delivery device comprising:
a solution reservoir comprising a solution; and
tobacco.
19 . The disposable cartridge of claim 18 where the tobacco comprises a mesh screen.
20 . The disposable cartridge of claim 18 wherein the tobacco comprises tobacco encapsulated in a porous filter.
