      The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) hosted a workshop focused on EPA’s Non-Targeted Analysis Collaborative Trial (ENTACT). ENTACT was designed to assess the characteristics and performance of cutting-edge non-targeted analysis (NTA) methods using a set of highly controlled synthetic mixtures and reference samples. This workshop brought together ENTACT participants, NTA experts, and key stakeholders to discuss findings from ENTACT, as well as next steps for the NTA research community.

      Reduced Risk Products ("RRPs”) is the term we use to refer to products that present, are likely to present, or have the potential to present less risk of harm to smokers who switch to these products versus continuing smoking. PMI has a range of RRPs in various stages of development, scientific assessment and commercialization. Our RRPs are smoke-free products that produce an aerosol that contains far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
