Dependence of Alcohol Dehydrogenase Activity on Salt Concentrations
Title
Dependence of Alcohol Dehydrogenase Activity on Salt Concentrations
Description
What happens when you drink alcohol? Well…. The liver is one of the first places that helps detox your body of toxins that are in your body, like when you drink beer or vodka. When alcohol reaches the liver,
the liver makes ethanol and other foreign chemicals less toxic and more likely to be excreted. The liver processes ethanol, medicines, and other chemicals through the action of enzymes. Ethanol is specifically metabolized by alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH).
