Diethylene glycol (DEG) is a widely used substance with various risks of intoxication. In adult rats influences of DEG on functional parameters are characterized, indicating early signs of nephrotoxicity. A dose dependent proteinuria, an oliguric effect, an increased excretion of free hydrogen ions and a compensated impairment of renal tubular transport processes can be stated (0.25, 0.5 and 0.75 ml DEG/100 g b.m. i.p.). Following a single dose of 0.5 ml DEG/100 g b.m. i.p. the maximally expressed nephrotoxic effect is measurable 4 to 8 days after administration.

D006859 Hydrogen The first chemical element in the periodic table with atomic symbol H, and atomic number 1. Protium (atomic weight 1) is by far the most common hydrogen isotope. Hydrogen also exists as the stable isotope DEUTERIUM (atomic weight 2) and the radioactive isotope TRITIUM (atomic weight 3). Hydrogen forms into a diatomic molecule at room temperature and appears as a highly flammable colorless and odorless gas. Protium,Hydrogen-1
