abstract：:Long-chained 1-mercapto-n-alkanes showed potent inhibitory effects on horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase (HLADH). The inhibitory effect of the thiols was enhanced by increasing the number of the alkyl carbon atoms up to 10-12 and steeply lowered by further increase in the carbon number. The HLADH activity was almost co...
