The effect of ethyl alcohol on the blood glucose level was observed on normal as well as fasting rabbits. Although normal animals did not exhibit a significant hypoglycemic response, severe hypoglycemia followed ethanol administration in fasting rabbits. Estimation of liver glycogen content revealed that the animals developing hypoglycemia also had a diminished liver glycogen, whereas a hypoglycemic response was absent in those animals where the liver glycogen was within normal limits.
