E-Cigarette Interview with Dr Murray
Laugesen
Brought to you by Electronic Cigarette Direct
We have been fortunate enough to talk to the man who, outside the labatories of the electronic
cigarette manufacturers themselves, probably knows most about the electronic cigarette.
Respected researcher, Dr Murray Laugesen of Health New Zealand, is one of the few to have
carried out an in depth analysis of the contents of the electronic cigarette, and has presented on
his findings at international conferences. In this interview we talk to him about concerns over the
electronic cigarette.

ECD In previous interviews we have conducted scientists have estimated that, based on the evidence
available, the risk to health from electronic cigarettes is between 1% and 1/10th of 1% of real
cigarettes. You have actually done a product assessment of Ruyan electronic cigarette. What's your
assessment of the risks?
ML We would rate the Ruyan electronic cigarette two to three orders of magnitude safer (100 to 1000
times safer) than a tobacco cigarette. We say this because our testing of the Ruyan e-cigarette for nearly
60 major toxicants has not found any cigarette smoke toxicants in any but trace quantity so far. This is
not surprising, as the operating temperature of the atomizer of an e-cigarette is 5 to 10% that of a
burning tobacco cigarette, so the volatile cigarette smoke toxicants are not created.
