Impact of Electronic Cigarette Temperature and Solvent on Biomarkers

24. Mai 2026 aktualisiert von: Zachary Bitzer, Milton S. Hershey Medical Center

Clinical Study on the Impact of Electronic Cigarette Temperature and Solvent on Biomarkers of Oxidant Exposure

This project seeks to determine how e-cigarette (EC) physical design features, including those that allow the user to manipulate the quality and quantity of aerosols, affect exposure and toxicity from oxidants and other aerosol constituents.

Studienübersicht

Detaillierte Beschreibung

Subjects will be provided with a study e-cigarette and e-liquid to use during the duration of the study. They will be asked to complete various questionaries as well as provide blood, exhaled breath, exhaled breath condensate, saliva and buccal cell samples.

Their puffing behavior and biomarkers of tobacco exposure and harm will be measured as follows:

E-cigarette (EC) puffing behavior - In order to determine a measurement of toxicant dose, topography markers such as puff duration, number of puffs, and interpuff interval (IPI) will be assessed via video recorded sessions.

E-liquid consumption will be assessed by weighing the filled tanks before and after the session.

Subjective effects such as nicotine withdrawal symptoms, urge to vape, and positive/negative effects will be assessed by questionnaires during the human lab studies.

The total nicotine delivered and GSH oxidation will be calculated in blood via LC-MS. Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) samples will be analyzed by Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectroscopy (LC/MS) and include the primary biomarker of oxidative stress (8-isoprostane) and a series of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and hsCRP). Exfoliated buccal mucosal cells will be analyzed for 8-OHdG-DNA adducts by LC-MS/MS as a biomarker of oral oxidant exposure/damage.
