Yes, it can.
yes
An ETG alcohol test can detect if someone has consumed alcohol even after there is no more ethanol left in their system. If the ETG is present in the test then that means alcohol was ingested at some point.
Dimetapp Alcohol free contains no alcohol, so it should not show up on an ETG test.
Most definitely. Theis is a very serioius weakness of the EtG test, as the US federal government has warned.
It depends If you are using etg model 2847-f67, then yes, but if it is model 9457-d657, then no.
The ETG test is not a reliable test for the presence of alcohol a person consumes. This urine test has been notorious for false positives that occur to incidental exposure to ethanol, and even bacteria.
EtG or Ethyl Glucuronide is direct metabolite of ethanol (alcohol) , or your sample will be tested for alcohol . For more info (detection time, fail positive, etc ..) search for EtG test.
No, and that's really a shame.
Ethylglucuronide, ETG, is a direct metabolite of ethanol that forms in the liver only as a result of ethanol consumption. Therefore, even after ethanol, ETOH, has been completely removed from the bloodstream (by metabolism in the liver), there should still be ETG in the bloodstream. Thus, it is possible to have a positive ETG test even if an ETOH test is negative (indicating no ETOH left in the bloodstream).
The ETG test is the Ethyl Glucuronide test. It is used to test for alcohol in urine. When ETG is found in the urine, it indicates that alcohol was consumed recently.
