The validation study shows that the proposed method is specific, sensitive, precise, and accurate. The linear range of the method was 0.013-0.031mg/mL for EG and 0.012-0.030mg/mL for DEG. Wider ranges may be achievable but were not investigated. The limit of detection of EG and DEG were determined as 0.0018% and 0.0036% (w/w) respectively, and at this concentration the signal-to-noise ratios for EG and DEG were approximately 3:1. The method was also used to determine EG and DEG in toothpaste. The results were compared to those obtained by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and showed greater sensitivity and specificity.
