Blood alcohol refers to ethanol. Methyl alcohol will enter the bloodstream and be metabolized by the liver into formaldehyde (embalming fluid) which is a deadly poison.
Oddly, the only antidote to methanol poisoning is ethyl alcohol, which slows down the liver's metabolism of the methanol and MAY allow it to clear from the body without killing you. The most common side-effects of methyl alcohol poisoning -- apart from death -- are blindness and kidney failure.
No, ingesting methyl alcohol or similar chemicals will not increase blood alcohol levels because they are not metabolized into ethanol, which is the substance measured in blood alcohol concentration tests. Methyl alcohol is toxic and can cause serious health problems, including blindness and death if ingested.

What happens to your cholesterol as a cause of alcohol?
Drinking alcohol in moderation can increase "good" HDL cholesterol levels, but excessive alcohol consumption can raise triglycerides and increase the risk of heart disease by affecting liver function. It's important to consume alcohol in moderation to maintain a balanced cholesterol level.
How you can increase the pH without increasing conductivity?
To increase pH without increasing conductivity, you can use chemicals like potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide which will raise the pH without affecting conductivity significantly. These chemicals increase the pH by accepting protons (H+) in the solution, but they do not contribute to the conductivity of the solution. Regular monitoring and adjustment of the pH level will help you maintain the desired pH without raising the conductivity levels.
Kidneys attemt to increase hemoglobin levels by the release of what?

Why does drinking hard alcohol to excess make a person blackout compared to drinking the same equivalent of beer subsequently being just intoxicated?
Hard alcohol has a higher alcohol content than beer, leading to a quicker absorption of alcohol into the bloodstream. This rapid increase in blood alcohol levels can overwhelm the brain's ability to form memories, resulting in a blackout. Additionally, mixing hard alcohol with sugary drinks can further enhance intoxication and increase the likelihood of blacking out.

How does alcohol effect dopamine levels during drinking and after?

What do obesity and alcohol use have in common that increases breast cancer risk?
They increase estrogen levels in the blood.
Can taking armour thyroid increase the the blood alcohol levels after drinking and give a false positive on a breathalizer?
From my own experience, Do Not Drink Alcohol while taking this drug.
Alcohol use is considered to be a problem if what occurs?
Death can occur if alcohol dramatically changes blood pH levels. You see, blood has a very small pH range, and alcohol has acid-forming properties. When you drink too much alcohol, your blood pH levels increase dramatically, while your phosphate levels decrease, leading to death. If you are asking for long-term effects, alcohol could be a problem in the long run if it led to liver cancer and alcoholism.
Why can't Fermentation produce an alcohol content above fifthteen percent?
Yeast cells are living organisms and therefore are killed off by the increasing levels of alcohol during fermentation. Some super yeast strains exist which can tolerate higher levels of alcohol but are rare. As fermentation proceeds and alcohol levels increase the yeast gets stressed out and can produce unwanted flavour compounds. Eg. Higher levels of esters found during high gravity fermentation's. Be nice to your yeast.
What are alcohol effects on lipid levels in the blood?
Alcohol increases lipid levels by interfering with fat metabolism.
Does shock affect blood alcohol levels?
No, shock does not affect blood alcohol levels. Blood alcohol levels are influenced by the amount of alcohol consumed and how quickly the body metabolizes it, not by a person's state of shock.
Will exposure to a large quantity of pepper spray inan enclosed space for over a half hour increase alcohol levels in the blood?
Nope - its main constituent is capsaicin - a chemical derived from the fruiting bodies of Capsicum plants. While ethanol (a type of alcohol) is used in the production process, the ethanol is not part of the final product - and therefore will have no affect on blood alcohol levels.
