Detect smoking habit

Question

Asked for Male, 16 Years

Please suggest medical tests or home use kits for detection of cigarette smoking habit. My brother has earlier committed himself that he is smoking and then promised to quit it. From past few months he has started smoking again but is not accepting this fact. Please help me with a way through which I can clinically prove this to him.
