background: toxic alcohol poisonings are responsible for high mortality and morbidity in russia. this study was aimed to evaluate the trends of harmful ethanol (etoh) drinking as well as methanol (meoh), isopropanol (ipa) and ethylene glycol (eg) poisonings in the middle urals region of russia. methods: in this retrospective study, the medical records of patients poisoned with meoh, ipa and eg ...

in this paper, tin dioxide nanoparticles were synthesized by a fast and simple co-precipitation method. for sno2 preparation, we used ammonia as precipitation agent and bis (acetylacetone) ethylene diamineas as capping agent. by changing in sncl4, acacen mole-ratio different morphologies were obtained. this semiconductor nanostructure has photo-catalyst activities and can degrade organic dyes a...

Eleven commercially available alcohol and ethylene glycol derivatives were tested for their toxicity toward a problem organism in jet fuel, Cladosporium resinae. In the presence of glucose, 20% (vol/vol) ethylene glycol monomethyl ether prevented spore germination and mycelial growth, and 10% (vol/vol) 2-ethoxybutanol, 10% 2-isopropoxyethanol, 10% 3-methoxybutanol, 5% 2-butyloxyethanol, 5% ethy...

The influence of the addition graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) on intra/inter – molecular segmental motions poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) (EVOH) was assessed by means dielectric thermal analysis (DETA). relaxation spectra were studied in terms permittivity (??) and loss tangent (tan ?) at wide ranges frequency (from 10?2 to 107 Hz) temperature -150 140 °C). Two zones disthinguished. Below glass ...

Bacteriol. 85:356-362. 1963.-An anaerobic organism which utilizes ethylene glycol as a source of energy and carbon has been isolated from mud. It is a long (5 mu), slender, motile, gram-positive, spore-forming rod, wi...

the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of additives, poly(ethylene glycol) (peg) 1450, poloxamer 407, polyvinyl alcohol (pva) and sodium chloride in order to improve physico-chemical characteristics, encapsulation efficiency and in vitro release of bovine serum albumin, form poly(d,l-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (plga) microparticles prepared by the w/o/w solvent evaporation method...

Dissolution of azo dyes derived from N-carboxylic acid-1,8-naphthalimide was studied in aqueous solutions containing formaldehyde condensation of naphthalenesulphonic acid and fatty alcohol ethylene oxide compound surfactants and effect of additional hydroxyl group on chemical structure of dye on dissolution was investigated. In addition, the effect of important factors on dissolution of used d...

Superparamagnetic nanoparticles are of great current interest for biomedical applications in both diagnostics and treatment. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) can be manipulated by magnetic fields, so that when functionalized, they can be used for the purification and separation of biomolecules and even whole cells. Here we report combining the separation capabilities of MNPs with the functional (bi...

Toxic alcohols that clinicians commonly encounter are ethylene glycol, methanol, and isopropanol. Adults ingest these either for suicidal intent or to achieve inebriation, since these substances are readily available and cheaper than alcohol. Nevertheless, assorted alcohols are used very often in many applications and any alcohol can be toxic if ingested in large enough quantities. Toxic alcoho...
