    Why E ciggaretts is not been studied probably ?? what effects and side effects does it cause to our body? is it safer than regular cigs??

    There are different types of nebulizers , but the most common one usues the the Venturi effect(jet nubulizers). A compressor generates a high velocity stream of air which is passed through a thin film of the medication liquid which converts it to a a mist which is delivered, via tubing, to a...

    Walmart Glycerin?

    I'm the Pharmacist who wrote the sticky on PG/VG labeling/safety. USP is actually Pharamceutical grade(which is more highly regulated and, in general, made to higher standard/specifications than food grade(FCC) product). As my sticky mentions, it is the best and purest grade that the typical...

    All these threads regarding safety and regulations, and my ranting

    It was actually early yesterday and earlier today(and in quite specific detail and depth, in a totally different venue). Boy isn't that a coincidence that it should have been brought up all of a sudden. Wow, somebody here must be truly psychic.

    Ask your favorite suppliers to remove diacetyl from their e-liquids!

    I swore I was not going to post anymore on this thread, this topic or at all; but I had to respond to this as a a person with a degree in Pharmacy(who has taken far more than a basic course in toxicology at the local community college). You've just insulted every vaping consumer who wants a...

    The Anti-Hysteria Over Diacetyl Thread

    I swore I was not going to post anymore on this thread, this topic or at all; but I had to respond to this as a Pharmacist(who has taken far more than a basic course in toxicology at the local community college). You've just insulted every vaping consumer who wants a beginning to sane self...

    I need one euro......

    Why didn't Kevin Carter, the photographer, simply pick the child up and walk/drive him to the UN Food Distribution Center(one Kilo away) after he snapped the photo????? He left this poor child to die and walked way with Pulitzer winning photo then complains about throwing tasteless food in the...

    Diacetyl Containing Liquids Safety Discussion

    All great suggestions. Problem is, Unless every single vaper in the USA(which we don't yet have here at ECF) stuck to their guns and abided by this plan, it wouldn't work. As Kristin from CASAA mentioned before, even if they did try something like your proposing(as NVC apparently did) they have...

    Diacetyl Containing Liquids Safety Discussion

    I second. We just don't know enough at this juncture to say many things about this situation. And with the consequences being as severe as they are, I for one, am going to err on the side of caution - Especially when this could be so easily avoided with a bit of diligence on the part of the...

    Diacetyl Containing Liquids Safety Discussion

    Without giving a full Physical Chemistry & Anatomy lecture; A liquid solution containing a mixture of several different liquids(all of which have different vapor pressures at the vaping temperature) are going to enter the gaseous phase at differing amounts based upon their liquid concentration...

    Diacetyl Containing Liquids Safety Discussion

    Doesn't that speak VOLUMES about the integrity of the players(of course not all) in this industry. CASAA could still attempt this and then nicely post those vendors who decided to "ream" a perfectly logical suggestion/encouragement. That would, at least , give consumers a place to start. If a...

    Diacetyl Containing Liquids Safety Discussion

    Huh?? that's your response?? I didn't bold encouraging. One sec. OK there ya go. Encouraging is bold now. The meaning of the my post hasn't changed an iota. When you start knit-picking semantics; the writing's on the wall. Of course, I'm the guilty "twister" of words and meanings. I'm so sick...

    Diacetyl Containing Liquids Safety Discussion

    Whoa, whoa , whoa..... This so called CASAA "attack" was spurred by comments (started in another thread) downplaying the diacetyl issue by a CASAA rep. I'm a Healthcare professional, don't make me(or others like me) out to look like the bad guy for simply bringing up something that could...

    Diacetyl Containing Liquids Safety Discussion

    As has been quoted ad nauseum previously , No PEL(no Permissible exposure limit) means that it should be avoided at ANY concentration(if possible- and , in this case , it's completely possible) especially since a suspected causual link has been found between diacetyl vapor inhalation and a such...

    Diacetyl Containing Liquids Safety Discussion

    In another related thread I addressed this issue from a perspective that is being missed(you can't extrapolate gas phase concentrations directly from liquid concentrations). Rather then retype the post. I will copy and paste: Unfortunately, "the numbers" on this matter are far from settled...

    The Anti-Diacetyl Meeting Room

    And, of course, your highly qualified CASAA staff of experts and PhD's in the fields of Medicine, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Pharamacology, Toxicology, Pulmonology, Quality Assurance etc.. are more then up to the task to contradict people in the healthcare medium(who are members of these public...

    The Anti-Diacetyl Meeting Room

    Thank you, my inital point exactly. And "hey, no need to panic here." is definitely not something we need to hear from a group which most vapers associate with consumer advocacy.
