Chronic active hepatitis is a long-term on-going inflammation of the liver, i.e. when the condition has lasted for more than six weeks. This is what canine hepatitis really means, a chronic liver inflammation. Many diseases can result in chronic active hepatitis in dogs. The cause can also be virus or a toxin causing liver damage. Some dog breeds also seem more susceptible to get chronic inflammatory hepatic disease.
Acid hydrolysis of esters is reversible: Alkaline hydrolysis of esters is irreversible, since it gives an alcohol and a salt of the acid: This process is used extensively in industry to make alcohols and acidsâfor example, in the saponification of fats to make glycerol and salts of higher acyclic acids (soaps).lkaline hydrolysis of esters is irreversible, since it gives an alcohol and a salt of the acid: This process is used extensively in industry to make alcohols and acidsâfor example, in the saponification of fats to make glycerol and salts of higher acyclic acids (soaps).
Reversible injury of liver cells can occur with large quantities of alcohol. With regular alcohol use, this regenerative ability may be inhibited and lead to sustained liver damage. Long term heavy alcohol use may lead to fat accumulation in the liver, which may progress to alcoholic hepatitis, or to liver cirrhosis.
