Мисля ще е интересно едно изследване направено от от независима лаборатория което случайно намерих в нета,направено е на определен вид течност но мисля изводите са валидни за всички .Прави впечатление препоръката за замяна на пропилен гликол с глицерол поради токсичност на пропиленглюкола към респираторната система както и многото вредни съставки в инхалирания дим дадени в таблицата от линка.Ето цитат:
The composition of the „Totally Wicked‟ E.S. nicotine solution
has been investigated by LPD Laboratory Services, in order to try and re-affirm that the nicotine solution is a much safer alternative when used in the electronic cigarette, when compared to smoking with traditional cigarettes.
The „Totally Wicked‟ nicot
ine solution contains the addictive yet poisonous nicotine component, as do traditional cigarettes. The nicotine solution does appear to contain propylene glycol aerosol forming solvent. Different suppliers of this chemical appear to offer differing haz
ard ratings on their respective MSDS‟s. Some
indicate no ill effects from inhalation which is fine, while others indicate CNS and spleen health issues may exist from prolonged inhalation of the chemical. Researching the chemical profile for propylene glycol
1
indicates that although there would appear to
be „no current recognized health hazards‟, the chemical is „suspected to be a respiratory toxicant‟.
If Propylene Glycol subsequently becomes „recognized as a respiratory toxicant‟ following the launch
of the product in Europe, then
„Pillbox 38‟
should be looking for an even safer alternative such as Glycerol.
The GC-
MS results also indicate that “3, 4
-Dihy
dro Cumarin” is also present in the nicotine solution
and that currently
„no he
alth hazards are recog
nized‟. However, t
he chemical is suspected to be a carcinogen
2
, a suspected gastrointestinal toxicant or liver toxicant, and a suspected neurotoxicant.
The low level of “3, 4
-Dihy
dro Cumarin” identified may have inadvertently found its way into the
formulation, or be added intentionally
3,4
to modify the smoking experience.

Conclusion
On balance, the „Totally Wicked‟ E.S. nicotine solution appears to offer a much safer alternati
ve to the traditional cigarette. Using this nicotine solution, the artificial smoke generated by the Electronic Cigarette does not appear to contain the toxic cocktail of toxic carcinogenic compounds found in traditional tobacco smoke. Some 600+ chemicals have been identified in traditional tobacco smoke, of which many are carcinogenic. The primary aerosol forming solvent (Propylene Glycol) used in the preparation of the nicotine solution is listed as a suspected respiratory toxicant.
„Pillbox 38‟
should look at changing the aerosol forming solvent from the suspected respiratory tox
icant „Propylene Glycol‟, to an
even safer solvent such as Glycerol.
