This document, developed by the World Health Organization's Tobacco Laboratory Network (TobLabNet), provides standardized operating procedures for the quantitative determination of nicotine, glycerol, and propylene glycol in e-liquids. It aims to ensure global comparability of analysis results for these substances, which are commonly found in e-liquids used with electronic nicotine delivery systems. The methods are based on ISO standards and are intended for use by laboratories involved in tobacco control efforts. The document emphasizes the importance of measuring nicotine due to its regulated concentration levels in various regions. It serves as a technical guideline for scientists and policymakers involved in tobacco regulation and public health.

The 2021 WHO Report on the Global Tobacco Epidemic addresses new and emerging products, focusing on electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). It examines the risks associated with these products, particularly for children and adolescents. The report emphasizes the need for stringent regulations to protect public health and suggests comprehensive tobacco control measures, including monitoring tobacco use, protecting the public from tobacco smoke, offering cessation support, warning about tobacco's dangers, enforcing bans on tobacco advertising, and increasing tobacco taxes. The report highlights the ongoing importance of tobacco control amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, linking tobacco use to exacerbated health conditions. It aims to guide policymakers and health professionals in advancing global tobacco control efforts.
