Ethylene glycol poisoning is not an uncommon cause of an acute renal injury. In this paper we present case of prolonged renal failure in the course of ethylene glycol intoxication. Due to the low dose of ingested ethylene glycol and concomitant ethanol consumption, the neurodepressive phase of the intoxication was rather mild and patient presented to the hospital on the ninth day after poisonin...

In this research nano particles of bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3) were synthesized by sol-gel auto-combustion route. The effect of water and ethylene glycol solvents were studied on phase constituents, magnetic properties and microstructure of the bismuth ferrite by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and vibration sample magnetometer (VSM) techniques. XRD resul...

A new analytical method has been developed for the quantitative determination of ethylene glycol-containing nonionic surfactants, such as polyethylene glycol 8000, polysorbate 80, and Pluronic F-68. These surfactants are commonly used in pharmaceutical protein preparations, thus, testing in the presence of protein is required. This method is based on the capillary gas chromatographic analysis o...

In this paper, the synthesis of novel divalent cationic lipids with poly(ethylene glycol) segments is described. The lipids consist of an unsaturated double-chain hydrophobic moiety based on 3, 4-dihydroxy benzoic acid, attached to a hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) spacer which contains a divalent cationic end group. As poly(ethylene glycol) spacers monodisperse triethylene glycol and teleche...

Materials: Tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS, 98%), aqueous ammonia (28%) were purchased from Sinopharm Chemical Reagent Co. Ltd.. Carbon black (99.5%, 30 nm) was purchased from Aladdin Co. Ltd.. Ethylene glycol (EG, 99%) and ethanol (99.9%) were purchased from J&K Co. Ltd.. Poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate (PEGMA, Mn=360) and poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA, Mn=700) was purchased from Si...

We demonstrate that the high oxygen density characteristic of BiOCl {001} facets ensures the fast generation of oxygen vacancies in ethylene glycol under microwave irradiation, resulting in in situ nucleation and growth of Ag on the {001} facets of BiOCl single-crystalline nanosheets. The resulting Ag selectively deposited BiOCl single-crystalline nanosheets exhibit much higher reactivity and s...

Liposomes prepared from a mixture of L-alpha-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine and the PEGilated phospholipid N-(carbonylmethoxypoly(ethylene glycol 2000))-1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine were used as templates for the production of silica and alkylated silica approximately 100 nm capsules, "liposils", entrapping aqueous solutions of anionic dyes. Triggered release of this content ...

A gram-negative nonmotile rod which was capable of using 1,2-(14)C-ethylene glycol as a sole carbon source for growth was isolated from a brine pond, Great Salt Lake, Utah. The bacterium (ATCC 27042) required at least 0.85% NaCl for growth and, although the chloride ion was replaceable by sulfate ion, the sodium ion was not replaceable by potassium ion. The maximal concentration of salt tolerat...
