Resource Notes:

Conclusions: Overall, these findings indicate that under the study conditions, with the products tested, the room air levels of the select measurable chemicals during the use of EVPs were relatively small and were several-fold below the current occupational regulatory and consensus limits. The study results could provide further information for the ongoing debate regarding the potential health impact for exposing non-users to chemicals from EVP use.

Controversies:

None to date.
