A vape condensate collection method for degradant identification and toxicity screening

Abstract

Since 2007, the market for e-cigarettes has resulted in increasing demand for newer technologies and flavorings contributing to the complexity of these products. As a result, methodologies for e-cigarette aerosol capturing and testing have become a necessity in understanding the toxicities surrounding e-cigarette products. This study tests an alternative aerosol capture method followed by toxicity testing of the sample collected on a lung in vitro model.
