Ethylene glycol (IUPAC name: ethane-1,2-diol; Chemical formula C2H6O2) is an organic compound widely used as an automotive antifreeze and a precursor to polymers. In its pure form, it is an odorless, colorless, syrupy, sweet-tasting liquid. Ethylene glycol is toxic, and ingestion can result in death.

What is the relation between propylene glycol alginate and propylene glycol?
From www.fao.org/ag/agn/jecfa-additives/specs/Monograph1/Additive-360.pdf Propylene glycol alginate is an ester of alginic acid in which some of the carboxyl groups are esterified with propylene glycol, some neutralized with an appropriate alkali and some remain free.
Is propylene glycol in toothpaste harmful?
Would you brush your teeth with anti-freeze from your car's radiator? Absolutely NO, WHY include this ingredient in toothpaste if it is considered harmful?? You are confusing PROPYLENE Glycol with ETHYLENE Glycol. Propylene glycol is not toxic. Ethylene glycol is the substance in engine coolant which will damage internal organs, especially the kidneys. Check out the MSDS for both substances for further information.
