AB The influence of various substances and procedures (diathermy, epinephrine, insulin, caffeine, carbon dioxide, oxygen, olive oil, physiological salt solution and magnesium sulfate) upon the concentration of alcohol in the human blood-stream after intravenous administration of alcohol was tested. The maintenance of an elevated body temperature by diathermy apparently caused an increased rate of disappearance of alcohol from the blood; none of the other procedures tried had any effect that could be considered significant. Some of the implications of these findings are pointed out.
