There have not been a LOT of tests on the carcinogenicity of Propylene Glycol, but what studies have been done show NO carcinogenic effects - even at VERY high doses, in either humans or lab animals.

With the extensive use of the electronic cigarette worldwide - where Propylene glycol is the main carrier used in the nicotine solution - in 10 to 20 years we should have have proof - one way or the other.

NOTE: E-Cigs have been in use Worldwide for approx. 7 years now - with no problems reported.

Propylene glycol is generally considered safer than ethylene glycol for use in coolant/antifreeze due to its lower toxicity. This makes propylene glycol a preferred choice for applications where accidental ingestion may occur, such as in RVs or marine engines. Additionally, propylene glycol is less harmful to the environment compared to ethylene glycol.
