Has anyone seen this study before?

[Downtown]

I was rummaging through e cig safety on google to see how vaping is being seen by the general public, and this right here might scare a lot of people.

Kinda even scared me. Is there any validity to these tests?

yes,its garbage.
PG and VG have naturally anti-biotic qualities. that's why they are used in
medical inhalers.
do get the nasty chemicals your juice would have to be heated to the point
your actually cooking it. still those nasties would still be within OSHA
work place exposure limits.
Glantz the one who is quoted is an extreme anti-smoking and vaping zealot
known for his distortions of facts,manipulating data and,down right lieing
about vaping.

Almost boggles my mind how well these articles can read to someone who doesn't know that much about vaping. Hell, it could even turn some smokers off from making the switch. I know when I had an upper respiratory infection and I stopped smoking entirely and just stuck with vaping, the URI definitely went away quickly.

You have to track down the original study and the method used. They were using a basic starter kit with an ego twist with some type of clearomizer. then they compared the composition of the vapor at 3.3 volts to 4.8 volts. They found toxins at 4.8 volts that were not present at 3.3. The reason they found toxins at 4.8 volts is because the wick can't keep up with the coil so it dries out and burns, adding smoke to the vapor. Since this would be a very unpleasant drag I'm not concerned.

Yah...to vape at those temperatures needed to turn the PG/VG to dangerous chemicals would inevitably make the vape taste TERRIBLE. I can't see anyone doing that for more than one hit.

E-Cigarettes

That seems to be the originial study. It also seems they used >60pg at high rates of use and mainly on present smokers. Seems a bit swayed.

I stopped reading after the first sentence.

"Electronic cigarettes, marketed as safer than regular cigarettes, deliver a cocktail of toxic chemicals including carcinogens into the lungs"

Seriously? they no doubt made that up in their heads along with the rest of the article.

Apparently the basically cooked >60pg liquids on a machine and delivered it into the air. Remind me again how a machine works? As you program it to. I can vape on my eGo-V at 6 volts and get a .... ton of vapor, but after 2 hits I wanna puke the taste is so awful. They seem to forget that lower branded e-cigs are notorious for busting and producing bad chemicals. Hell, the "swisher e-cigar" is the worst thing ever made, as in they cost like 8 bucks and bust and the juice gets sucked into your mouth of you take more than 10 hits without a small break.

That's the entire point.

Hmmm....I wish my e-cig delivered cocktails to me!

This is the original study they were referencing. Carbonyl Compounds in Electronic Cigarette Vapors
they used a they used a good range of mixes including a control group of pure nicotine in salute. I'm just saying that their conclusion is flawed because they're blaming the solute, because the higher PG ratio had higher levels, but they never ruled out the possibility of smoke from a burning wick.

Please break the links to junk articles.

Anything that has Glantz associated with it, is basically junk, flawed sience. He has a huge hate for vaping.
