This study identifies key parameters influencing emissions from e-cigarette consumption (?vaping?), and their impacts on acrolein formation. The levels of carbonyls and volatile organic compounds in mainstream vapor were measured during e-cigarette use under controlled conditions. Levels and patterns of non-users? exposures were estimated by measuring concentrations of nine toxicants in vapor exhaled by four users followed by modelling that incorporated ventilation rates, vaping frequency and occupancy.
