The quantitative contents of carbon monooxide in fresh blood for smokers and nonsmokers were measured by uv-visible spectrophotometric methods on the teenagers and adults. As a result, all blood contained some level of carbon monooxide. Typical teenager nonsmokers had a carbon monooxide level between 2.45 and 2.73%, smokers had a between 7.64 and 8.81%. On the other hand, adult nonsmokers contained carbon monooxide to 3.55% in fresh blood and adult smokers had 10.64%. This means that smokers have more carbon monooxide in blood than nonsmokers at the all ages.
