This topic has likely been discussed, but I found this release eye-opening:
“In an effort to keep the public informed during the Cannabis Control Commission’s (Commission)
ongoing investigation into quarantined vaping products, we are releasing 109 test results from samples
collected and tested over the past several weeks.
Consistent with the last batch of results published by the Commission last week, these tests also show
no detection of Vitamin E Acetate. However, because the presence of heavy metals remain a concern,
specifically the potential development of lead, the Commission is sharing these most recent findings
with the public. Each of these products had previously, and successfully, complied with testing
protocols before being made available for sale. When tested again this month, however, 13 of the
aforementioned products failed for impermissible levels of lead. A product fails if the result detects the
presence of lead at 500 parts per billion (ppb) or more. Products detecting the presence of lead in an
amount less than 500 ppb would produce a passed test result.
These findings make clear that the Commission should, and will, continue its investigation into vaping
products. As additional information and findings become available, the Commission will continue to
share them with the public.”
The failing results seem to be more prevalent in broad spectrum CO2 cartridges. I looked up some of the product and they appear to be housed in CCELL cartridges. Forgive me if this has been posted. I thought it may be of interest to some of you.
