Abstract: Composition, methods of synthesizing trans-arachidin-3; and, methods of use as a dietary supplement, food additive, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, cosmeceutical, and antioxidant. The methods of production entail organic syntheses using primary alkylamines or primary hydroxyalkyl amines, or carboxy amines (amino acids) with natural carboxylic acids (acetic acid) as catalysts to react isovaleraldehye with trans-resveratrol. The synthesis is carried out in organic solvent, which is composed of an azeotropic mixture comprising toluene with pyridine, n-butanol, n-propanol, 2-propanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, or other alcohols that form an azeotrope with toluene. The final product is purified and analyzed for the amount of trans-arachidin-3, such as via HPLC, IR, column chromatography, and high-performance counter-current chromatography.

Abstract: A filter for removing harmful ingredients from tobacco smoke without unduly increasing the draw having as an essential component a filter rod composed throughout of cotton fibers with substantially all of the fibers extending circumferentially of the axis of the rod. This component is combined with at least one other component positioned rearwardly of the smoke outlet and of the filter rod and this other component may be either at least one disc composed of intertangled wood cellulose or pure cotton fibers or a section of a conventional filter rod composed of cellulose acetate fibers. If at least one disc is present, it may be positioned by sandwiching it between two filter rod sections composed of cellulose acetate fibers or between one such section and the filter rod composed of cotton fibers. The entire filter assembly is closely confined within an impervious shell.
