MRI vs. MRA. An MRA, or magnetic resonance angiogram, is a type of MRI scan that uses MRI's magnetic fields and radio waves to produce pictures of blood vessels inside the body, allowing doctors to locate problems that may cause reduced blood flow.
Best Answer: Ethyl alcohol, at the concentrations used in most antibacterial preparations, kills bacteria by disrupting membranes and by denaturing proteins. Ethylalcohol is miscible in water (that is, completely soluble). But ethyl alcohol can also dissolve in the membranes of cells.
Isopropyl alcohol is a major ingredient in gas dryer fuel additives. In significant quantities, water is a problem in fuel tanks, as it separates from the gasoline, and can freeze in the supply lines at cold temperatures. Alcohol does not remove water from gasoline; rather, the alcohol solubilizes water in gasoline. Once soluble, water does not pose the same risk as insoluble water, as it will no longer accumulate in the supply lines and freeze. Isopropyl alcohol is often sold in aerosol cans as a windshield de-icer.
