Erik M. P. Widmark (1889-1945) was among the first researchers to study in a systematic way the absorption, distribution, and elimination of ethanol in the body; in addition, he formulated his results in mathematical terms. Widmark's research during the first decades of this century paved the way for innovative traffic safety legislation that stipulated punishable limits of alcohol in the blood of a person driving a car. The 50th anniversary of Widmark's death was commemorated in 1995. His contributions have gained enormous respect and are still widely cited in forensic science, especially in connection with the crime of driving under the influence of alcohol. The Widmark equations and the factors beta and r are now part of the vocabulary of all those trained in forensic alcohol analysis and toxicology.
埃里克·M·P·维德马克（1889 - 1945）是最早系统研究乙醇在体内的吸收、分布和代谢的研究人员之一；此外，他还将研究结果用数学形式表达出来。维德马克在本世纪头几十年的研究为创新的交通安全立法铺平了道路，该立法规定了对驾车者血液中酒精含量的可罚限度。1995年是维德马克逝世50周年。他的贡献赢得了广泛尊重，至今仍在法医学领域被广泛引用，特别是与酒后驾车犯罪相关的内容。维德马克方程以及β和r因子如今已成为所有接受过法医酒精分析和毒理学培训人员的常用术语。
