An ethanol-preferring line of rats, developed by selective breeding, consumed as much as 9.4 ± 1.7 grams of ethanol per kilogram of body weight per day through intragastric self-infusions, yielding blood ethanol concentrations of 92 to 415 milligrams per 100 milliliters. By contrast, the ethanol-nonpreferring line self-administered only 0.7 ± 0.2 gram per kilogram per day. These findings indicate that the reinforcing effect of ethanol is postabsorptive and is not mediated by the drug's smell or taste. Hence the ethanol-preferring line of rats may be a suitable animal model of alcoholism.
