Alcohol decreases in the blood at the rate of about 0.015 of BAC per hour.

EGT urine testing can detect alcohol metabolites out to about 72 hours. The alcohol detected can be from drinking, using mouthwash containing alcohol, using hand sanitizer containing alcohol, consuming food containing alcohol, inhaling alcohol, having an injection site prepared with alcohol, etc.

Explain a hemolyed sample?

I am assuming your question is in regards to a blood sample. Hemolized blood samples means that the red blood cells have been destroyed. This can happen in several ways, i.e. using a needle that is too small with high pressure while drawing the blood sample or even spinning the blood sample too long in the centrifuge prior to sending for lab testing. The hemolized red cells break open releasing the hemoglobin from within.
