Causes for a high SGOT level can include infection, viral hepatitis, mononucleosis, gallbladder disease, the presence of toxins from drugs or alcohol and cancer. It may also indicate muscle damage from a fall or injury, or a muscle disease such as polymyositis or muscular dystrophy.
Basements or crawl spaces. Basements are often overridden with moisture. There is often a substantial amount of moisture coming through the concrete. Some houses can have up to 100 pints of humidity that needs to be removed per day, most of it coming through the basement in some cases. For a basement, it is recommended to keep moisture at least under 65% although the optimal room humidity would be between 40%-50%.
For those building a wine cellar in a basement, you can take advantage of the natural humidity of the soil by piercing 1 to 2-cm holes through the concrete of the basement floor. Holes at every 5-6 cm along the walls can help increase the humidity level in your basement by 1 or 2 degrees.IPS FOR BUILDING A WINE CELLAR. The construction of a wine cellar must satisfy the essential conditions required for proper wine preservation: - - Constant temperature (preferably between 11 and 14oC). - - A good level of humidity (ideally between 60 and 80%, no less than 50%).
