E-cigarettes (E-cig) are presently subject of a public health debate. Therefore, systematic research is required in order to assess the impact of e-cigarette use-related exposure to vapor components (e.g. propylene glycol, glycerol and nicotine) including potential toxicants (e.g. aldehydes, tobacco specific nitrosamines). To determine the e-cigarette specific absorption of these substances, stable-labeled isotopes of the main components 13C3-propylene glycol, 13C3-glycerol and nicotine-d7 are used in a clinical study with e-cig users.
