Abstract
After an oral load of 10 g polyethylene glycol, its concentration in the urine was measured by gas chromatography. The coefficient of variation of the imprecision between run was about 11%. The urinary excretion was 25% of the administered dose with a coefficient of variation of the interindividual variation 26% and the intraindividual variation between 13% and 29%.Keywords
