Research Brief | IMiracle, Hongfu & SYSU: Nicotine Lactate E-Liquids May Accelerate Coil Corrosion and Nickel Release
A new study in Chemical Research in Toxicology reports that e-liquids formulated with 2% nicotine lactate can corrode nickel–chromium heating coils and increase nickel (Ni) leaching into both the e-liquid and aerosol. Compared with a 2% nicotine benzoate control, nicotine lactate was associated with higher Ni levels in bench tests, greater intracellular Ni accumulation and cytotoxicity in three human cell lines, and elevated Ni deposition in mouse tissues after sub-chronic inhalation.
