Methanol, ethylene glycol, and diethylene glycol intoxications can produce visual
disturbances, neurologic disturbances, acute renal failure, pulmonary dysfunction, cardiac …

Context. Methanol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, and propylene glycol intoxications are
associated with cellular dysfunction and an increased risk of death. Adverse effects can …

Ingestion of a toxic alcohol often occurs when an alcoholic patient cannot obtain ethanol and
thus, seeks an ethanol substitute. Methanol produces visual disturbances, while ethylene …

We have developed simple and rapid screening tests for methanol and ethylene glycol in
plasma of poisoned patients, based on the Toxi-Lab alcohol screening test. The compounds …

Methanol and ethylene glycol poisonings share many characteristics both clinically and
biochemically. Both alcohols are metabolised via alcohol dehydrogenase to their toxic …

Abstract Information from the clinical laboratory can contribute in several ways to the
evaluation and management of the acute consequences of alcohol ingestion. If a blood …

Measuring the concentration of alcohol in biological specimens (whole blood, serum,
plasma, urine, saliva, and breath) involves the use of relatively simple analytical procedures …

Background Patients presenting with ingestions of methanol and ethylene glycol pose a
significant challenge to emergency physicians. The decision to initiate antidotal therapy …

Methanol has a very simple chemical structure (CH3OH) considering its potential health
hazard, including the many poisoning deaths after ingestion. In countries where authentic …

Non-invasive screening parameters proving alcohol intoxication are necessary especially in
forensic contexts. Results obtained by common measurement methods like the ethanol …
