代谢
甲基乙基甲醚(二甲氧基甲烷)被大鼠代谢为甲醇和二甲醚,无论给药途径如何,两者以等摩尔比例生成。甲基乙基甲醚中毒的症状以及对视网膜和视神经的典型损害与甲醇中毒所见相同。吸入实验表明,血液中甲醇浓度与空气中甲基乙基甲醚的浓度成正比。
Methylal (dimethoxymethane) ... was metabolised by rats to methanol and dimethyl ether in equimolar ratio, regardless of the route of administration. Symptoms of methylal poisoning and the typical damage to the retina and optic nerve are the same as those seen in methanol poisoning. Inhalation experiments showed that the blood methanol concentration is proportional to the concentration of methylal in the air.
