A recent paper by Ester Omaiye, a postdoctoral fellow and ETOX alumna, Prue Talbot, a Professor in the Department of Molecular, Cell and Systems Biology and ETOX faculty member, and their colleagues has investigated the fluid and aerosol composition and in vitro toxicity of ultrasonic cigarettes (U-cigarettes) and have demonstrated that they have similar or greater potential for harmful effects when compared to the latest types of electronic cigarettes (E-cigarettes). Their article recently appeared in Chemical Research in Toxicology and has been highlighted in an Inside UCR news article. Our congratulations to Ester, Prue and their colleagues for this important new study. [The picture above is from the authors' Chemical Research in Toxicology article.]
