Environ Pollut. 2014 Oct 29;196C:257-267. doi: 10.1016/j.envpol.2014.10.013. [Epub ahead of print]
Our study shows that e-cigarette aerosol is source of high particle dose in respiratory system, from 23% to 35% of the daily dose of a no-smoking individual... This study reports for the first time size segregated dosimetry data per airway generation for e-cigarette-generated aerosols. E-cigarettes were recognized as a source of extremely high particle doses in the human respiratory system.”
