In the most comprehensive chemical comparison to date between smoke and e-cigarette emissions, toxicant levels in e-cigarette vapour was found to be on average 95% less than in conventional cigarette smoke.

A comparison between the vapour from Vype ePen - a commercially available e-cigarette - and 3R4F - a reference cigarette - revealed substantial reductions in the e-Pen emissions for all toxicant groups measured. Most cigarette smoke toxicants could not be detected in the e-cigarette vapour.
