The Photochemical Reaction of Ethylene Glycol with Ferric Chloride-Pyridine Complex

Successful Treatment of Ethylene Glycol Poisoning with Haemodialysis

Poly(ethylene glycol)-lipase complex highly active in ionic liquids

INTRODUCTION A number of studies on enzymatic reactions have been carried out in organic media. These reactions have several benefits compared with conventional organic synthesis, including high enantioselectivity, substrate specificity and low energy consumption. There are, however, several drawbacks in using organic solvents. Volatile organic solvents are often flammable and toxic to the envi...

of AF performance. that contain EG has been reponed to result in irreversible damage to renal, hepatic, cardiovascular, and central nervous systems, and is a cause of death in household pets and other animals.2-4 It is not known why some animals ingest EGcontaining products. Although there are reports suggesting that the "sweet" taste of EG, and of products containing it, may lead to ingestion ...

Fatal Ethylene Glycol Intoxication

Clinical and forensic laboratories frequently have to face cases of severe intoxication from ethylene glycol, because of its wide availability, and thus its use as an additive in various housekeeping and commercial products such as anti-freezing agent, car batteries and solvents for dyes. The majority of ethylene glycol poisonings is related to suicide attempts (intentional ingestion) and to mi...

[Ethylene glycol poisoning].

Although an uncommon cause of death in Great Britain, ethylene glycol poisoning is potentially serious in that renal and cardiopulmonary failure and central nervous system dysfunction can occur when doses of the order of 100 ml or more are ingested. A case is described in which a child who swallowed approximately 100 ml of ethylene glycol was treated by prolonged peritoneal dialysis. In additio...
