Abstract:
The aim of this study was to find additional diagnostic markers characterizing the functional state of the liver to substantiate the cause of death from ethanol poisoning. A total of 95 deaths from acute ethanol poisoning and 15 deaths from craniocerebral injury were studied. Signs of steatosis, chronic hepatitis or cirrhosis were taken into account in histological examination of the liver. The histochemical activity of ethano-locking enzymes was determined in structurally functional zones of the acini: portal pathways (Zone 1), liver beams (Zone 2) and central veins (Zone 3). Quantitative indices characterizing functional-metabolic activity of the liver during acute ethanol poisoning were obtained.

Oxidation of Alcohols
The process of oxidation in a chemical reaction is observed in any of the three forms:
Ethers from Alcohols: Alcohol Dehydration and Williamson Ether Synthesis
Ethers can be prepared from organic compounds by various methods. Some of them are discussed below,
Preparation of Ethers by Alcohol Dehydration
In this method, in the presence of protic acids, alcohol dehydrates to produce alkenes and ethers under different conditions. For example, in the presence of sulphuric acid, dehydration of ethanol at 413 K yields ethoxyethane, whereas it yields ethene at 443 K.
Protection of Alcohols
Protection
It defines a protecting group as the masking agent to make the more reactive species inert to a given set of conditions. This concept is depicted via the illustration of liquid flow through different outlets in an assembly of pipes. The analogy helps to understand the role...
