Abertay Uni scientists use green tea and olive compounds to make safer e-cigarrette

Led by Dr Alberto Fiore of Abertay University’s School of Applied Sciences, the research has involved extensive laboratory studies of the emissions from vaping and their effects on human lung cells. “The next step for this project is to secure further funding to enable us to begin work on more complex types of e-liquids reflecting those used in the real world, with an eventual goal of establishing that they can be as safe as conventional e-liquids, while effectively reducing exposure to excessive levels of carbonyls. “The next step for this project is to secure further funding to enable us to begin work on more complex types of e-liquids reflecting those used in the real world, with an eventual goal of establishing that they can be as safe as conventional e-liquids, while effectively reducing exposure to excessive levels of carbonyls.
