Study Summary
This trial will examine how the speed and dose of nicotine delivery from electronic devices varies by nicotine flux and form.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 21 who regularly use electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) at least three times a week for the past three months. They must be willing to consent and attend lab sessions, abstain from tobacco/nicotine when required, and have normal blood flow in their hands as shown by an Allen test.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study investigates how different forms of nicotine in vaping devices affect the speed and amount of nicotine entering the bloodstream. Participants will try vaping devices with varying levels of nicotine flux and form while having their arterial blood sampled frequently to measure these effects.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Specific side effects are not listed, but participants may experience typical reactions associated with vaping such as throat irritation or coughing. The high-resolution blood sampling could potentially cause discomfort or bruising at the puncture site.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Nicotine vaping group visit 2Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
The same subjects from visit 1 will receive the either free-base or protonated form of four nicotine fluxes: 9, 18, 27, 35 μg/sec at their second study visit, using the opposite nicotine form that was used during the first visit.
Group II: Nicotine vaping group visit 1Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Subjects will receive the either free-base or protonated form of four nicotine fluxes: 9, 18, 27, 35 μg/sec at their first of two visits. In the first visit, participants will use the ENDS device with one nicotine form and four fluxes in random order. Participants will be instructed to attend the lab for a second visit, to test the four fluxes but with the other nicotine form.
