Relx`s China`s largest e-cigarette brand, has a new bioscience lab in Shenzhen to study the health effects of vaping

Are electronic cigarettes(Disposable Vape) a safe alternative to smoking?

The World Health Organisation (WHO) says no, but China`s largest e-cigarette brand Relx Technology thinks more research could prove otherwise.

[E-cigarettes(disposable vape) are sometimes viewed with suspicion because we have incomplete knowledge," said Relx co-founder and head of R&D and supply chain Wen Yilong.

The company unveiled a new bioscience laboratory to study the health effects of vaping. The lab in Shenzhen will investigate the short- and long-term behavioural impacts of e-cigarettes(disposable vape) compared to traditional cigarettes using 3D printed models of human lungs, Relx said. It will also examine the impact of Relx products on animal cardiovascular, respiratory and nervous systems by testing them on mice.

[The Relx bioscience lab`s mission is to explore the unknown," Wen said [We want to collect evidence through a scientific approach and strive to prove the potential for e-cigarettes to be less harmful, and in doing so, provide users with the option to choose an alternative."
