glutaral and Diarrhea

glutaral has been researched along with Diarrhea in 3 studies

Glutaral: One of the protein CROSS-LINKING REAGENTS that is used as a disinfectant for sterilization of heat-sensitive equipment and as a laboratory reagent, especially as a fixative.
glutaraldehyde : A dialdehyde comprised of pentane with aldehyde functions at C-1 and C-5.

Diarrhea: An increased liquidity or decreased consistency of FECES, such as running stool. Fecal consistency is related to the ratio of water-holding capacity of insoluble solids to total water, rather than the amount of water present. Diarrhea is not hyperdefecation or increased fecal weight.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"An outbreak of proctitis at the start of a colorectal cancer screening programme utilizing flexible sigmoidoscopy prompted scrutiny of the incidence of this complication and the role of glutaraldehyde in its aetiology."3.70Glutaraldehyde as a possible cause of diarrhoea after sigmoidoscopy. ( Bennett, MK; Browell, DA; Cunliffe, WJ; Hanson, JM; Plusa, SM, 1998)
"In subsequent animal studies, colonic instillation of 2% glutaraldehyde solutions caused bloody diarrhea and a distinctive pattern of mucosal damage; similar changes were seen in a review of pathologic samples from other human cases of glutaraldehyde disinfectant-associated diarrhea."3.68Investigation of an outbreak of bloody diarrhea: association with endoscopic cleaning solution and demonstration of lesions in an animal model. ( Durante, L; Israel, E; Morris, JG; Powers, PJ; Qizilbash, AH; Russell, RG; Zulty, JC, 1992)
