TITLE PROCESS FOR REDUCTION OF NITRATE AND NICOTINE CONTENT OF TOBACCO BY MICROBIAL TREATMENT INVENTOR Vernon Louis GEISS, Lawrence Edmond GRAVELY and Charles Fred GREGORY A process for the reduction of the nitrate and nicotine contents of tobacco by microbial treatment is disclosed wherein tobacco materials are subjected, under controlled conditions, to the action of a microorganism effective to degrade nitrates and alkaloids (nicotine) through a biochemical reaction. The microorganism is combined or grown in the presence of a nitrate containing compound in relatively small quantities. Tobacco treated in accordance with this process has a reduced nitrate and nicotine content, and when incorporated into a tobacco smoking product thereby produces a mild smoke, having reduced nitrogen oxides, hydrogen cyanide and nicotine content. However, there is no loss of desirable flavor, taste and smoking properties.
