Since the early 2000s, e-cigarettes have become increasingly popular as an alternative to traditional cigarettes and tobacco smoking. However, the controversy revolving around e-cigarettes’ health impact makes thorough testing crucial for these products.
By properly testing e-liquids with state-of-the-art equipment, you can stay in compliance with FDA regulations while providing your customers with high-quality products that meet or even exceed their expectations. Testing processes accurately measure the type and amount of various compounds and contaminants in the liquid in an effort to identify potential issues and maintain consistent quality and taste across products.

World Class E-Liquid Testing Laboratory
The FDA began regulating e-cigarette products in 2016. Daily Manufacturing offers a world-class facility with cutting-edge equipment for a range of quality testing procedures. Our staff, knowledge base, and processes stay current with the latest industry regulations, and our testing results are accepted worldwide.
What Is Typically Tested?
E-liquid testing services are comprehensive and include:
- Determining nicotine levels for consistent content
- Analyzing propylene glycol/vegetable glycerin (PG/VG) ratio
- Measuring water content and boiling point
- Examining the liquid’s overall density and refractive index, which measures the level of light refracted or bent when passing through the liquid
- Identifying pH and Gardner Index rating, which is a measure of yellow color on a scale and correlates to freshness and quality
During testing, e-liquids may undergo specific processes like ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry and titration. UV-Vis spectrophotometry measures the amount of light the e-liquid absorbs and how this light can impact the product’s properties. Meanwhile, titration helps measure the concentration of different types of content, including nicotine.
Benefits of E-Liquid Testing
Complete e-liquid testing services are beneficial in maintaining the integrity and consistency of e-liquid products across multiple batches. For example, testing ensures they do not contain potentially harmful elements, such as chemicals, toxins, pathogens, or pollutants. Testing also incorporates processes like titration to analyze alkaloid content and profiles for improved overall quality control.
Perhaps the most important benefits of testing are the opportunity to boost your company’s reputation for superior quality and transparency in your products and operations.
