Abstract

A role for microsomal alcohol oxidation cannot be demonstrated in vivo. Factors affecting microsomal drug hydroxylations had no effect on alcohol metabolism in the rat in vivo. The compound SKF 525-A which inhibits, and chronic phenobarbital treatment which enhances microsomal drug hydroxylations did not alter alcohol oxidation.
