Ethylene Glycol: A colorless, odorless, viscous dihydroxy alcohol. It has a sweet taste, but is poisonous if ingested. Ethylene glycol is the most important glycol commercially available and is manufactured on a large scale in the United States. It is used as an antifreeze and coolant, in hydraulic fluids, and in the manufacture of low-freezing dynamites and resins.

" The first patient was paralyzed following the ingestion of a large quantity of ethylene glycol and the second by botulism due to the consumption of injudiciously canned food."4.81[Totally paralyzed or brain dead?]. ( Eurelings, M; Jansen, GH; van Dijk, GW; van Gijn, J; Vos, PE, 2001)
"In considering the diagnosis 'brain death', the most important criterion is that the cause of the brain damage is established."2.41[Totally paralyzed or brain dead?]. ( Eurelings, M; Jansen, GH; van Dijk, GW; van Gijn, J; Vos, PE, 2001)
