General description

Nornicotine is a tobacco alkaloid and nicotine metabolite. Since virtually all tobacco products contain nornicotine, smoking or chewing tobacco exposes the user to this nicotine alkaloid. In urine testing by GC/MS or LC/MS, nornicotine is used as an indicator of smoking or use of chewing tobacco or nicotine replacement products.

alpha-synuclein is a small presynaptic protein (14,460 D) that is abundantly distributed in the brain. Although, its function is unknown, the aggregated form of alpha-synuclein is a pathological hallmark of several neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease (PD). Epidemiological studies have
