[Ethanol-oxidizing enzymes of the adrenal glands in acute alcoholic intoxication]
Abstract:
Complex morphological-and-histological examinations of the adrenal glands were performed on actual forensic-medical samples in acute alcoholic intoxication (AAI), i.e. 107 death cases of men and women, aged 17 to 60, due to mechanical trauma, lethal ethanol intoxication and somatic complications of chronic alcoholism. A differentiated distribution of ethanol-oxidizing enzymes was defined, i.e. of alcohol-dehydrogenase and acetyl-dehydrogenase in the structural-and-functional zones of the adrenal cortex and medullary substance. A differential activity of enzymes was established that correlated with the level of exogenous alcoholemia. Sets of morphological signs related with examinations of the adrenal glands, which enabled a differential diagnosis of death causes in AAI, were specified.

Acid-Catalyzed Dehydration of Alcohols to Alkenes
Oxidation of Alcohols
The process of oxidation in a chemical reaction is observed in any of the three forms:
Preparation of Aldehydes and Ketones from Alcohols, Alkenes, and Alkynes
Aldehydes and Ketones with Alcohols: Hemiacetal Formation
Dehydration of Aldols to Enals: Base-Catalyzed Aldol Condensation
Dehydration of Aldols to Enones: Acid-Catalyzed Aldol Condensation
