It does Kinda put things in Perspective.

We are now looking to the future for our next test. The results will unfold over time. We want to see what the effect time has on an e-liquid in relation to concentration. In speaking with one of the labs that we use, we posed the questions regarding tanning, concentration and the effects in the short and long term. It was suggested that the tanning process may be caused by oxidation and that it could in some ways be affecting the nicotine concentration of the e-liquid over time. But that statement was not based on fact as they also said it might not. In short they stated that no real testing had been done that they knew of and that it was an unknown. Since we do not believe there to be a rapid decrease in nicotine concentration, at least in the short term, we have decided to do some testing. In a larger container we mixed 300 mL of a PG nicotine solution. We tested the solution 3 times and came up with a nicotine concentration of 35 mg. We then separated the solution into four 60 mL bottles. They were labeled as follows: Refrigerator Room Temp Office Room Temp Window Sill Room Temp Window Sill Open Bottle This will give us a variety of environments with which to derive conclusions from. We will test each bottle weekly for the first two months and then we will test monthly for as long as the samples last.
