Can diabetes cause false positive alcohol test results?
No, diabetes has no effect on blood alcohol content. That depends on what type of test you are referring to... Acetone (or other ketones) in the blood/body, whether because of Diabetes, other illness, or some Diets CAN, and often DOES cause false positive alcohol test results if tested with a Breathalyzer. It may not affect the actual blood alcohol content, but it CAN cause false positive test results... THAT is why the result is called a FALSE positive.

Could the metabolism of fat explain the presence of ketones and the low pH of the urine?
Yes, metabolism of fats is a reason and can cause the presence of ketones and can lower pH levels.

Ketones are strong acids and this is why it can cause a lowering of pH in the urine.
