Liver alcohol dehydrogenase is an enzyme system which has been investigated extensively. In a recent paper by Sekhar \& Plapp (1989), possibly as many as eight steps were revealed, most of them interconversions among ternary complexes. Many of the rate constants reported were near or above the recip
## Abstract The principal enzymes catalyzing the conversion of ethanol to acetate are alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH). The activities of these enzymes are elevated in the serum during the course of alcoholism or cirrhosis. In previous investigations we have found eleva
