The pharmacology of ethanol involves both pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics. In the body, ethanol primarily affects the central nervous system, acting as a depressant and causing sedation, relaxat

…will convert 1.0 μmole of ethanol to acetaldehyde per minute at pH 8.8 at 25 °C. There have been studies showing that variations in ADH that influence ethanol metabolism have an impact on the risk of alcohol dependence. The strongest effect is due to variations in ADH1B that increase the rate at which alcohol is converted…
