| Something is not right here. In the body of the article, it states TEG has boiling point 198 C and melting point 13 C. In the properties sidebar, it states a boiling point of 285 C and melting point -7 C. Can someone please clarify?
The right side data shows the pure TEG properties whereas left side temperatures means when it is mixed with water. when we use TEG as a dehydrating agent, it is always wet (saturated, usually, with water)Yousafnoor (talk) 03:29, 15 November 2008 (UTC) |

Ashwagandha experiment
editA PLOS One article[1], summarized in this ScienceDaily article[2] describes an experiment on mice using components of the sleep-inducing herb Ashwagandha. They say their "results clearly demonstrated that triethylene glycol is an active sleep-inducing component of Ashwagandha leaves" but that the withanolide steroids that were previously thought to be the active ingredient are in fact not. 75.137.100.122 (talk) 17:20, 9 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi, I am the archivist and historian for SC Johnson. I acknowledge I have a conflict of interest and would like to request a factual update to the first citation which is in the third sentence of the first paragraph. The citation incorrectly identifies the source as Johnson & Johnson instead of SC Johnson. My suggested edit is below. Please let me know if you need any clarification. Thanks! Wax86
