Vitamin E acetate in products used by the first cases of EVALI in New York State

Vitamin E acetate in products used by the first cases of EVALI in New York State 

A new study published on 24 January 2020 in the journal Toxics provides important insight into the recent lung intoxication epidemic referred to as "e-cigarette or vaping product use-associated lung injury" (EVALI). The study presents, for the first time, a comprehensive analysis of products used by EVALI patients. Vitamin E acetate was the main finding in cannabinoid liquids. No compound that could be linked to EVALI was found in the two nicotine products tested. (EurkAlert, 24.01.2020)
