Smokers who want to kick the habit might soon get help from a product that’s being tested at the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine:a mouthwash that makes cigarettes taste bad.It could be on the market within a year.
The anti-smoking rinse itself tastes rather pleasant.But if you light up within six to eight hours of drinking it,your cigarette will taste like burnt rubber and you won’t smoke past the first puff,explains Dr.Sebastian Ciancio,director of the center for Dental Studies at the University of Buffalo.Metal ions(离子) are what make it taste bad to smokers,he adds.
Ciancio is heading up a pilot study in which ten smokers,each of whom normally smoke at least a pack of cigarettes a day,are rinsing their mouths three times daily with the anti-smoking solution.Another ten are getting a placebo(无效对照剂).Before this study,only the inventor had tested the anti-smoking rinse-a chemist who does not wish to be identified-and a few of his friends,who say it enabled them to quit smoking.
And Ciancio has no shortage of volunteers:The waiting list to take part in the study is already full.“People are desperate,” he says,“If the pilot study is successful,it will be expanded.”
Not only might the patented formulation(获得专利的配方) help give up smoking,Ciancio adds,but it also appears to reduce plaque(牙斑),gingivitis(牙龈炎) and halitosis(口臭).Man-ufacturing the rinse,he estimates,would cost nearly the same as ordinary mouthwashes.

我来补答
想戒烟的人可能很快就可以获益于一种正在布法罗牙医学校接受测试的产品,即:一种能让香烟味道不好的漱口水.一年内就可以上市.
这种戒烟的漱口水尝起来却相当不错.但是布法罗大学牙医学研究中心主任Sebastian Ciancio博士解释说,如果喝了它之后的6到8小时内抽烟的话,香烟的味道就会像烧糊了的橡胶,吸了第一口就不会想吸第二口了.他补充说,是金属离子令其味道变怪的.
Ciancio正在进行一项初步研究,研究对象是10名每天通常吸至少一包烟的吸烟者.这些人每天用戒烟液漱口3次.另有10人采用无效对照剂.在这次研究之前,只有发明者-一名不想透露身份的化学家-以及他的几个朋友试用了此戒烟液,这几个朋友认为这样可以帮助他们戒烟.
而Ciancio并不乏志愿者:想参加研究的候选名单已经满了.“人们迫切渴望此项产品”,他说,“如果初步研究成功了,这项产品将会被推广.”
Ciancio 补充道,这项获得专利的配方不仅会对戒烟有所帮助,似乎还会减轻牙斑、牙龈炎及口臭等问题.他估计,这种漱口水的价格将会和普通款的差不多.
