title: Effects of ethanol intake on the immune system of guinea pigs.
abstract: Groups of guinea pigs were maintained with alcohol solutions not sufficient to result in liver dysfunction prior to and during investigations designed to determine whether ethanol would nonetheless impair cell-mediated or humoral immunity. No impairment of either was observed in any of the experimental groups.
