Microsomal Oxidation of Ethanol and the Drug Metabolizing System. Studies in Animals and Man

  • Chapter
Metabolic Changes Induced by Alcohol

Abstract

The existence of a hepatic microsomal system capable of ethanol oxidation has been recently proven, although its biochemical characterization is still under discussion (1), (2), (3).
