My Video Breaking Down the Study

TLDR: They took 50%VG/50%PG unflavored base, inputted different concentrations of sucralose (0.5%/wt being top end) and measured the vapor from a Kanger Subtank at 24-26w, with a few different methods. What they found was that Sucralose is pretty unstable and at vaping temperatures, releases chloride which can then essentially create an environment for the production of aldehydes and hemiacetals.

Hemiacetals are NOT formaldehyde, but can turn into formaldehyde. Essentially meaning that the body may be able to breakdown the hemiacetals before it converts, thus, making sucralose much less dangerous. But much more science needs to be done, especially with human subjects, to get an understanding of harm reduction in contrast with traditional tobacco smoke. (Remember, cigarettes actually produce formaldehyde).

In Table. 1 - you can see the levels detected, if you'd like to cross reference those levels with any other science you made find.

I spoke to a Biochem grad about this, and will be releasing a video on my channel diving further into this study, with his opinions. He obviously explains it much better than I could ever. I'll be sure to update this post once the video has been uploaded.
