Abstract

Tissue culture toxicity of various alcohols has been reported by Dillingham who used mouse L cells and Koerker who used mouse neuroblastoma cells. The toxicity of various polyhydric alcohols (ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol and propylene glycol) has apparently not been determined, under conditions of culture. The authors report the toxicity of ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol and propylene glycol and KB cells and the results are compared with previous data obtained using their cell culture system.
