The eulamellibranch gill technique shows by in vitro studies that cigarette smoke is a ciliastatic agent. This technique, which measures primarily the acute effect of volatile components in cigarette smoke, also shows that there is a different ciliatoxicity between filtered and nonfiltered cigarette smoke and that some cigarette filter media are more effective than others in reducing volatile components.
