ND: Non Detect or analytical result below the MDL.
J: Results flagged "J" are below the Lower Curve Limit, above the MDL, and are considered estimates.
NQ: Not Quantified due to uncharacteristic peak.

ACTIONS TAKEN:

  • Coconut Cream Pie, Diacetyl Detection more than 22 ppm - This is coming from one of the flavourings and will work to eliminate the cause.
  • Funky Monkey, Diacetyl Detection more than 22 ppm - This could be contamination of the Acetoin in one of the flavourings and we will to work to identify and eliminate the cause.
  • Maple Cured Tobacco, Diacetyl Detection more than 22 ppm - This could be contamination of the Acetoin in one of the flavourings and we will to work to identify and eliminate the cause.
  • Milk Chocolate, Pentanedione (Acetyl Propionyl) Detection more than 45 ppm - This is coming from one of the flavourings and we will work to eliminate the cause.
  • Groovy Grape, Diacetyl Detection more than 100 ppm - Immediate Stop Sale initiated. This is coming from one of the flavourings. We will identify the flavour, reformulate and retest.
  • Red Energy Drink, Nicotine Level outside of ± 10% Range - This batch was never distributed. We have identified the issue as incorrect labelling and are reviewing procedures to prevent future occurrences of this issue.
