What is Cotinine?

Cotinine is a chemical compound that is the primary metabolite of nicotine. It is used as a biomarker to measure exposure to tobacco smoke. When nicotine is absorbed by the body, it is metabolized into cotinine, which remains in the bloodstream longer than nicotine. Because of its longer half-life, cotinine levels in the blood, urine, or saliva are often measured to determine whether a person has been using tobacco products or exposed to secondhand smoke. Cotinine testing is commonly used in smoking cessation programs, medical research, and insurance assessments.
