Diacetyl and Acetyl Propyniol test results of 42 brands of Juice

[Mazinny]

Vaporshark has tested and posted the results on every juice they carry for A P and diacetyl ! That's 42 different brands and hundreds of juices. That includes some very popular brans like Space Jam, Cuttwood, Cosmic Fog, Classified etc...

That must have been a tremendous undertaking at a huge cost. All the more commendable since they will not be the sole beneficiaries as all these juices are sold at other sites as well ! Kudos to them.

Just a cursory look at some of these results will confirm most peoples suspicion that custards and similar type juices have the largest amount of diketones. No surprise really but i think this is a valuable tool for custard lovers even, as there is great disparity in the ap levels in different custards.

Just click on the " buy now " button and then on " e-liquid analysis report " of the liquid you are interested in.
Here's a list of all the juices color coded based on ECTA ( Electronic Cigarette Trade Association of Canada ) standards for acceptable limits. Not too familiar with their standards, but there is a link to their page :

Gee could it be a "non" issue? Ever hear of a cigarette smoker with popcorn lung?

Very cool and a huge thanks to Vaporshark. Great post. I wonder if they wound consider doing the same for flavorings for us diy-ers?

So all Vapor shark brand juices with all the vanilla, cream and coconut flavors, non of them have any trace of Diacetyl or Acetyl propyniol? Scientifically impossible.

Call me skeptical; a manufacturer of e-liquid who uses diacetyl says it's not so bad...

So those who get good results from vaping tests that are pro vaping are also suspect? Goodbye Dr Farsalinos!

 

[Robert Cromwell]

What the hell, I did not start vaping for my health anyway. Bring on the Dyketones.

I Don't think anyone is saying diacetal and ap aren't bad. More so that no one knows how much and for how long until it's harmful. Vapers just take the knowledge and make purchases based on what they feel is acceptable. A distributor posting independent lab results helps us make informed decisions, even if it may hurt their bottom line.

You seem to be confused. Mt. Baker uses diketones and says it isn't so bad. Dr. F said it should be avoided. I believe him, not a business who uses it in their e-liquid...

Dr. F says its an avoidable risk,not that they should be avoided.

Dr. F used the terms " severely problematic " and " extremely worrying " in assessing some of these test results according to this article :

Why did Dr. F say “With the exception of two liquids Space Jam and Pineapple Whip, all samples are severely problematic.” ?

can't remember.i don't believe he mentioned what specific brand was
over or under the allowed limits.

[Robert Cromwell]

Umm because those two have no or virtually no AP?

He was commenting only on the sample list published in the article i linked to, not on all the liquids. There were tons of e-liquid with non-detectable levels.

 

[dmska]

But high da.

[Robert Cromwell]

Maybe that is why they are problematic and not severely problematic?

Avoidable risks probably should be avoided...
