Does ETG Testing Work

Ethyl glucuronide (EtG) is a direct metabolite of ethanol alcohol. The presence of EtG in the urine can be used to detect recent alcohol consumption, even after the ethanol alcohol is no longer measurable.

The presence of EtG in the urine demonstrates that ethanol alcohol was ingested within the past three or four days, or roughly 80 hours after the ethanol alcohol has been metabolized by the body.

As a result, it can be determined that a urine alcohol test employing EtG is a more accurate indicator of the recent consumption of alcohol as opposed to simply measuring for the existence of ethanol alcohol.

Can an ETG test detect up to 96 hours?

EtG testing is unreliable as currently utilized (as even it's proponents acknowledge), and should never be relied upon singularly to determine alcohol consumption. The validity of the test is zero. If you are trying to pass an ETG test there are many variables that determine the BAC.


You drunk about 2 cups of moet rose on saturday130-200amand will be etg tested on monday morning what are the odds of you passing or failing this test or will it even be seen in your system?

You could pass the test, with luck, but the odds are against it. ETG testing does not test for alcohol. It test for an alcohol metabolite that is present in the body for about 80 hours after alcohol is ingested. It is not directly related to the amount of alcohol, which is why it is only used for compliance testing, not for blood alcohol level testing. Since ETG tests are compliance tests, ANY detectable amount is considered to be a fail.
