It depends on the state. We would assume that they would use an immunoassay for screening, followed up with spectography if needed. EtG is considered by most experts to be too sensitive for compliance screening, especially with individuals who are exposed to ETOH in the course of their work day.

∙ 12y agoMy bet is they're testing for ethyl glucoronide, not specifically alcohol. A test for alcohol only finds alcohol in your system, which means you almost have to catch the parolee with a glass in his hand. EtG will catch you three to five days after you drank.

Does rockland county probation use etg test?
does rockland county probation use urine etg tests
You weigh 110 pounds and you are a small 19 year old female on probation if you take five shots on monday will you pass a UA Thursday?
Yes, the alcohol will certainly be cleared from your system well before Thursday if you stop drinking on Monday. There are some highly advanced UA tests that can detect alcohol biomarkers a few days after use, but such tests are expensive and not likely employed by probation. Probation departments rely mainly on alco-sensors (breathalyzers) to enforce alcohol-related conditions and UA to enforce drug-related conditions.

What is ETG as related to drug tests?
Ethyl gluconoride is a metabolite of ethanol. It stays in your body for several days after you last drank, so people like probation officers enjoy this test--if you were at a race on Sunday afternoon and you saw one of your clients drinking beers, you can pull him in on Tuesday, test him for EtG and throw him in jail for violating his probation. At least that's the theory. The problem with this test is it triggers on soap--if you wash your hands in a soap containing SD Alcohol 40, you will p*ss hot on the EtG test. I think EtG is a test that will eventually be removed from our battery of usable tests; it's so sensitive it's impossible to use it for what it's there for.

Does a DUI violate probation without verdict in PA?
Absolutely. One of the conditions of Probation is to not use drugs or alcohol, and another is to not get new charges. If you get a DUI, it means the law is saying you are under the influence of drugs/alcohol and its also a new - and pretty serious - charge.
