Translations:ENDS Toxicity / Carcinogenic/72/en

  • Our results clearly show a lower toxicity of e-liquids, including flavoured e-liquids, when compared to CSC (cigarette smoke condensate). Typically, more than 100 times higher concentrations of CFs (Base liquids, with or without nicotine, and commercial, flavoured, nicotine-containing e-liquids) are required to elicit the same response as those observed for 3R4F CSC in specific endpoints.
  • Flavours play a critical role in attracting, and retaining smokers to e-cigarettes.
