急性乙醇中毒者体内乙醇动力学研究

根据乙醇在体内的代谢动力学特点,本文建立了研究急性乙醇中毒者血液乙醇动力学数学模型,其表达式为:x(t)=x_0(1-e-~(kat))-k_bt。从该数学模型可求得乙醇在体内的吸收速率常数(K_a)和消除速率常数(K_b),从而可以获得体内乙醇浓度动态变化曲线。所以,饮用乙醇饮料后的时刻乙醇浓度(x(t))均可由曲线中查得。实验研究证实,以该数学模型导出的参数与实验获得的结果相一致。     

血中乙醇及其代谢物乙醛、乙酸的顶空气相色谱法测定

本文用顶空气相色谱法,在 Porapak S 柱上测定人血中乙醇及其代谢物乙醛、乙酸。全血中乙酸在酸性条件下直接加入甲醇酯化成乙酸甲酯,改善了乙酸的挥发性和色谱行为。方法快速,简便,准确。应用本法测定两例正常人饮酒后血中乙醇、乙醛、乙酸浓度,结果表明血液乙醇浓度在酒后90分钟最高,而血液乙醛、乙酸浓度高峰则与人的乙醇代谢能力有关。

目的考察在不同存放条件下含乙醇的血液样品中乙醇浓度的变化情况。方法采用顶空-气相色谱法,以异丙醇为内标,对存放条件不同的血液样品中乙醇进行检测。结果冷冻(-10℃)条件存放1至30天,血液样品中乙醇含量无显著变化;冷藏(4℃)条件存放1至30天,血液样品中乙醇含量变化不显著;室温(28℃~33℃)条件存放1至30天,血液样品中乙醇含量显著改变。结论含有乙醇的血液样品,在冷冻、冷藏条件下可较稳定的存放30天;在室温条件下存放30天血液样品中乙醇浓度发生显著变化,不可在此条件下存放。     

乙醇、乙醛慢代谢与酒后驾车肇事

在体内乙醇代谢过程中起重要作用的酶有乙醇脱氢酶（ADH）、乙醛脱氢酶（ALDH）和细胞色素P4502E1酶（CYP2E1）,它们均具有基因多态性,不同基因型个体对乙醇的耐受性存在差别,表现为酒后的行为反应能力不同。司机若为慢代谢型,乙醇、乙醛代谢速率低下,即使少量饮酒,酒后开车也可造成交通肇事。通过对ADH、ALDH和CYP2E1基因多态性与乙醇、乙醛代谢能力的关系进行综述。

Differential diagnostics of stomach contents showing blue discoloration

A 42-year-old man evidently had died from an intoxication. On the basis of the findings at scene it was primarily assumed that the man had ingested a larger quantity of an ethylene glycol-containing antifreeze for suicidal purposes. The man was said to have had an alcohol problem and did not only consume drinking alcohol, but also other alcoholic liquids. At autopsy, a bluish liquid with an aromatic smell was found in the oesophagus and stomach. However, toxicological analyses did not furnish evidence of ethylene glycol--as expected--but a potentially fatal concentration of ethanol (blood alcohol concentration 4.01 per mille). The blue colour (patent blue C.I.42051) came from a liquid used in the wind-screen washer system in winter, which now contains ethanol (denatured with 2-butanone) instead of ethylene glycol. The results of the toxicological findings including the analysis of congener alcohols and the differential diagnostics of blue-coloured stomach contents are discussed.     

Simple and simultaneous quantification of cyanide,ethanol, and 1-propanol in blood by headspace GC–MS/NPD with Deans switch dual detector system

Cyanide is a powerful and rapidly acting poison. In Japan, cyanide poisoning is rare, and regular cyanide testing can be costly and time consuming. In contrast, alcohol analysis is routinely performed in most forensic laboratories. In this study, we attempted to develop a method for the simultaneous quantification of cyanide and alcohols in blood using headspace gas chromatography (HS–GC). As nitrogen-phosphorus detection (NPD) is more sensitive to hydrogen cyanide than mass spectrometry (MS), a Deans switch was used to switch the detectors during a single run. The separation provided by three analytical columns, PoraBOND Q, CP-Sil 5 CB, and HP-INNOWax, was investigated, and PoraBOND Q was selected. The use of HS–GC–MS/NPD with a Deans switch enabled the simple and simultaneous quantification of cyanide, ethanol, and 1-propanol. Eighteen other volatile compounds were detected in the SIM/scan mode of the MS.     

High performance liquid chromatographic determination of alcohols with reference to body distribution of methanol

A method has been developed on reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography for simultaneous determination of methyl, ethyl and isopropyl alcohols under refractive index detection using pure water as the mobile phase. A good separation has been achieved between these alcohols. Detector response was linear with a detection limit of 5 mg/100 ml. Recovery studies were performed by adding known amounts of methyl and ethyl alcohols to blood, lung and liver within the range 80–90%. The reproducibility of the results was always >90%. The quantitative distribution of methyl alcohol in postmortem body tissues and fluids has been reported in three cases of poisoning.

The effect of ibuprofen on ethanol concentration and elimination rate.

Pursuant to a recent driving under the influence (DUI) case, a medical study of six subjects was cited reporting that ibuprofen causes a decrease in the maximum rate of elimination of ethanol. Such a drug interaction is of significant forensic science interest and warrants further examination. This study investigates the effect of ibuprofen on ethanol elimination rate and ethanol concentration in nineteen volunteers. Volunteer subjects were randomly assigned to two groups administered either a placebo followed by ethanol or ibuprofen followed by ethanol. Subjects served as their own control. Blood ethanol concentrations were monitored every 30 to 60 min for up to 4 h with Intoximeter 3000 instruments. A blood sample was drawn at the final Intoximeter test and analyzed for ethanol and ibuprofen by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry, respectively. The mean elimination rate (+/- SD) as calculated using Widmark's elimination factor was 0.018 +/- 0.006 g/dL for ethanol and 0.017 +/- 0.007 g/dL/h for ethanol with ibuprofen. Mean ethanol concentrations (g/dL +/- SD) were: 0.095 +/- 0.026 (ethanol) and 0.095 +/- 0.033 (ethanol and ibuprofen) at 30 min; 0.077 +/- 0.026 (ethanol) and 0.075 +/- 0.031 (ethanol and ibuprofen) at 150 min; and 0.089 +/- 0.025 (ethanol) and 0.087 +/- 0.030 (ethanol and ibuprofen) overall. There was no statistically significant affect of ibuprofen on either the peak blood ethanol concentration or the ethanol elimination rate (p less than or equal to 0.001). These results reveal no evidence of a significant ethanol-ibuprofen interaction.     

The unreliability of using a urine ethanol concentration to predict a blood ethanol concentration

Of approximately 5,000 forensic cases with a positive ethanol result, over 1,000 were available in which both blood and urine were present for comparison of ethanol content. Data were examined for calculation of the urine to blood ethanol concentration ratio, with the intent of evaluating the validity of predicting a blood ethanol level given a urine ethanol level. The overall urine to blood ethanol concentration ratio was 1.57:1 with a range of 0.7 to 21.0:1. The extremely wide range of values implies that a large degree of error would be introduced if a mean ratio was used when predicting a blood ethanol level from a urine ethanol level.     

Medicolegal studies on alcohol detected in dead bodies — alcohol levels in skeletal muscle

An experiment was carried out on rats to determine whether or not a skeletal muscle sample was suitable for the determination of ethanol concentration in a carcass. Gas chromatography was used to estimate the ethanol and n-propanol concentrations in the femoral muscle and intracardial blood. The ethanol concentration of each sample was corrected according to the moisture ratio of circulating blood, viz., 78.5%.The ethanol concentration ratio of blood to muscle was 1.03 two hours after ethanol administration. When the carcasses of rats pre-treated with ethanol were stored at 15 °C and 25 °C, respectively, the ethanol concentrations in muscle and blood increased with time. At all times the concentration was higher in blood than in muscle, and also higher in samples collected from the carcass stored at 25 °C than at 15 °C.When the control carcass was stored in the same manner, the postmortem production of ethanol was noticed in both blood and muscle. As in the experimental rats, the control rats exhibited a higher blood ethanol than muscle ethanol level. Again, the ethanol concentration was higher in samples collected from the carcass stored at 25 °C than at 15 °C. The ratio of ethanol to n-propanol was less than 20:1 in blood and less than 10.1 in muscle.These results suggest that skeletal muscle may be a suitable tissue for the postmortem detection of ethanol.     

The rate and kinetic order of ethanol elimination

The rate and kinetic order of ethanol elimination was evaluated in human volunteers. Part I of the study involved dosing individuals with alcoholic beverages on two separate occasions. Breathalyzer tests were performed at 15-min intervals for a period of 5 h. Attention was focused on values obtained after peak blood ethanol levels had been reached. The second part of the study included having samples drawn from alcoholics at predetermined intervals during recovery from alcoholic intoxication. Blood ethanol concentration data was analyzed for kinetic order and a comparison of ethanol elimination rates of alcoholics and non-alcoholics was made. The predicative capability of estimating a BAC from both the zero and first order theories was also investigated.It was concluded that ethanol elimination is a zero order process. For subjects classified as non-drinkers (consume less than 6 ounces of ethanol/month), the mean ethanol elimination rate as determined in the study was 12 ± 4 mg/h. For subjects classified as social drinkers (consume more than 6 ounces but less than 30 ounces of ethanol/month), the mean ethanol elimination rate was 15 ± 4 mg%/h, and for alcoholics, the mean ethanol elimination rate was 30 ± 9 mg%/h. These results indicate that the rate of ethanol elimination increases with drinking experience.
