    Actual Exposure to Chemicals of Concern (diacetyl/acetoin/acetyl propionyl/etc)

    "Even when I'm willing to bet I'm the least knowledgeable in it ;)" Nope I think I have you beat in that department! I'm scared to contribute to that convo at all, I'm just going to be a tiny tiny fly on the wall :) But I do thank you guys for talking about this topic, and taking the time to...

    Actual Exposure to Chemicals of Concern (diacetyl/acetoin/acetyl propionyl/etc)

    Acetoin is structurally very similar to Diacetyl, and it's a known lung irritant. It's hard to find one article on Diacetyl (and there are a bazillion) where they don't include a warning on Acetoin as well. It's enough for this vaper:)...

    Actual Exposure to Chemicals of Concern (diacetyl/acetoin/acetyl propionyl/etc)

    ya in that last report linked you'll see it on page 4. I believe there were more recent studies performed in 2013, although i'm having a hard time finding it, so I can't be positive about that I did find these clips from different articles/studies Acetyl- The alpha-diketone, 2,3-pentanedione...

    Actual Exposure to Chemicals of Concern (diacetyl/acetoin/acetyl propionyl/etc)

    Acetoin and Acetyl (2,3-Pentanedione) in themselves are harmful to lungs regardless of whether they turn into diacetyl.

    Actual Exposure to Chemicals of Concern (diacetyl/acetoin/acetyl propionyl/etc)

    "Also, i'm inhaling waaay more vapor than I ever did smoke" - me too, like waaaaaaaaay more!. They were working with liquid and powder form, if I remember an article i read correctly, the liquid form was worse. I hope none of us vapers ever get bronchiolitis obliterans, and that may very...

    Actual Exposure to Chemicals of Concern (diacetyl/acetoin/acetyl propionyl/etc)

    maybe this? "I can't explain the levels to you, but I think the reason for concern in e-cigs VS regular cigarettes is because the diacetyl is inhaled in a different form. The popcorn factory workers, consumer cases, and scientific studies all point to the vapor as harmful when inhaled. The...

    Acetyl Proprionyl, Diacetyl, Acetoine HELP

    I sent a p.m to Dr Konstantinos on facebook regarding this. He said the study has already been published. He also said no companies were mentioned. I asked him if the press release was available to the public and he sent me this link- Chemical hazards present in liquids and vapors of...

    Acetyl Proprionyl, Diacetyl, Acetoine HELP

    You asked me if they were testing Chinese Flavourings, and I said no, as they were not testing Chinese flavourings, they were testing e-juice. It may be that the data was incorrectly interpreted, but I highly doubt that that it was all fabricated for fear mongering purposes.

    Am I the only one panicking about diketones??

    that indeed is the unanswered question! "FYI- In a flavoring that has less than 1% (.6%) diacetyl/similar, when used at a mere 2% in a juice, we'd be vaping 1200 ppb" then corrected "That should read: "we'd be vaping juice that contains 1200 ppb" - but that doesn't mean there'd be 1200ppb in...

    Acetyl Proprionyl, Diacetyl, Acetoine HELP

    the samples contained up to 70% ethylene glycol. One would take that info and assume E.G was used instead of PG?

    Am I the only one panicking about diketones??

    " The popcorn workers were exposed to extremely high levels/concentrations of diacetyl, which was in every breath they took for as long as they were inside the plant (8-10 hour days), over a period of decades. " or of a period of only a few months...

    Pure Vapes has 3ml FlavourArt flavorings

    Passunca's recipes | dot1ml So I definitely recognize some names in these recipes (HIC, we2rcool etc..) which makes it somewhat easy. Is there a way to maybe add PV or FA after their names so we know they are recipes from this thread, and recipes that only use FA? ex- #headinclouds-PV...

    Pure Vapes has 3ml FlavourArt flavorings

    I'm like the laziest DIY'er ever. I just buy 12mg 50/50 unflavoured nic juice and use the drop method. No measuring of pg/vg or nic. I'm happy with anything between 10mg-12mg so the flavour dilution isn't an issue. Also, I'm loving whoever said this; "with 6 ml nic base, 1-drop equals .5%...

    Pure Vapes has 3ml FlavourArt flavorings

    I hear you, I just put in an order for another 15 flavours at Pure Vapes, I think I have almost their entire line now, minus a few I can't imagine liking. Are you guys mostly dripping when you make small batches like this? or are you forever cleaning clearos to change out flavours?
