Abstract

Blood levels of acetaldehyde (ACh), ethanol and acetone were investigated in mice treated with ethanol for 6 months and receiving compatible erythrocytes (RBCs) overloaded with aldehyde dehydrogenase (AlDH). Following an acute dose of ethanol, ACh levels were significantly lower in these animals than in alcohol-treated mice receiving AlDH-unloaded RBCs, and were similar to the ACh levels of normal mice. The peak ethanol concentration was higher in normal mice than in both groups of alcohol-treated animals, while acetone concentrations were not significantly different in the three groups of animals.
