in this paper, the measurement of the viscosity of zno in ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, mixture of ethylene glycol and water (60:40 by weight), and a mixture of propylene glycol and water (60:40 by weight) and the thermal conductivity in ethylene glycol and propylene glycol as base fluids in the range of temperature from 25 ºc to 60 ºc are investigated. the results indicate that as the tem...

Kathryn Rosica of the Chemical Manufacturers Association raised an interesting point in her letter (EHP vol. 102, p. 1006). Neither the term "glycol ethers" nor the term "ethylene glycol ethers" strictly identifies a class of chemicals whose members all share a common distinctive toxicological profile. As Rosica correctly noted, "Higher molecular weight ethylene glycol monoethers that have been...

Past studies on the toxicological effects of ethylene glycol alkyl ethers as well as the recent data on these chemicals in Japan are reviewed. Only a few researchers have participated in the study of ethylene glycol alkyl ethers in Japan. The effects of ethylene glycol alkyl ethers on testis and embryotoxic effects of ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGM) have been studied, as has the teratoge...

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 ...

A duplex DNA containing a single thymine glycol (5,6-dihydroxy-5,6-dihydrothymidine) has been studied by NMR and other methods. Oxidative stress, ionizing radiation, and other causes can induce the oxidation of thymine to thymine glycol. The presence of thymine glycol is known to have significant biological consequences, and there are repair enzymes for thymine glycol in a wide range of organis...
