Description

Ethylene glycol is a colorless, viscous liquid that has many industrial uses. It is also used as an active ingredient in antifreeze and de-icing products, which are marketed to prevent the freezing of water in pipes, car radiators, and other places. Ethylene glycol can be toxic to humans and animals if ingested or inhaled. The most common symptoms of acute ethylene glycol poisoning are nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, drowsiness, blurred vision, slurred speech, loss of coordination (ataxia), seizures or coma. These symptoms usually occur within 1-2 hours after exposure. The effects of chronic ethylene glycol ingestion are not well understood but may include kidney damage and central nervous system problems.
