Examining vaping particle size and deposition
Summary: E-cigarette use is rising, particularly among young adults and teens.
Key points
- E-cigarette use is rising, particularly among young adults and teens.
- Recent illnesses and deaths attributed to vaping have caused intense scrutiny of the chemicals in e-liquids and vapor, but little is known about the size of vaping particles and their deposition patterns in human airways.
- Now, researchers reporting in ACS' Chemical Research in Toxicology have analyzed how e-cigarette particle size and deposition change with factors such as device power, e-liquid composition and vaping practices.
