| pubmed-article:7068070 | pubmed:abstractText | Postmortem methanol levels in bone marrow and heart blood were determined in rabbits. The average ratio of blood concentration to observed bone marrow concentration in 36 rabbits was 2.6 +/- 0.6 with a range of 1.5 to 4.2. Correcting for the lipid content of the bone marrow decreased the average ratio, reduced the ratio range and improved the correlation. The heart blood to corrected bone marrow ratio was 1.6 +/- 0.3 with a range of 1.2 to 2.9. Direct injection gas chromatographic techniques were employed to quantitate methanol concentrations. | lld:pubmed |
