“…Numerous known toxicants have been identified and measured in e-cig liquids and aerosols to date, including metals, carbonyls, free radicals, and phthalates. ,, Most existing studies investigating e-cig exposures have focused on quantifying specific, known constituents in e-liquids, especially those present at high levels in combustible cigarettes such as tobacco alkaloids, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and formaldehyde. ,, However, a growing number of studies have investigated chemicals unique to e-cigs, including compounds that are formed by thermal decomposition of e-liquid solvents (PG and VG), ,, contaminants from e-liquid packaging and e-cig device components, , and flavorants. ,− …”
