The primary purpose of this dataset is to provide a list of the products used in an application or study and to provide identifying information for each product, such as product category type, manufacturer, properties, product name, etc., as applicable. All identifying information is grouped by the Sponsor Tobacco Product Identifier (SPTOBID), a consistent variable, that is available for use in other domains where data pertaining to the product may be found.The following example illustrates the representation of smokeless tobacco product design parameter specifications using the PD domain.  First, the TO example below shows the identifiers and descriptors associated with this product.
