Abstract

The effects of the catalase inhibitor, 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (AT), on maintenance of voluntary consumption of ethanol was tested in male Long-Evans rats. AT produced a dose-dependent reduction in ethanol intake but did not affect total fluid consumption. AT also produced a dose-dependent inhibition of brain catalase lasting throughout the drinking period. These results suggest a role for brain catalase in determining the level of ethanol intake in rats.
