Talk:Nonoxynols

The structure shown is incorrect. The repeat unit should be C2H4O, not C2H4. It needs to be redrawn.Rbcody (talk) 18:53, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment: These sources appear to be ok, but they are (i) very recent (see WP:NOTNEWS) and (ii) specialized (see WP:SECONDARY and WP:MEDRS). The following review appears to be more comprehensive and more authoritative:

Johnson, Wilbur "Amended Final Report on the Safety Assessment of Nonoxynol-1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -7, and -81" International Journal of Toxicology 1999, 18, (Suppl. 1), 11-31. , Please consider this suggestion. PS there is a related analysis of the octoxynol derivatives, which are also widely occurring in consumer products.--Smokefoot (talk) 04:47, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
