Abstract excerpt

The effects of genetic polymorphism in aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) on alcohol intakes and toluene metabolism were studied in workers who handle toluene. The genotypes of ALDH2 were divided into three groups, which were the homozygous genotype of normal ALDH2 (NN), the homozygous genotype of...
