What is ETG alcohol testing?

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.


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.

What is etg alcohol?

EtG (Ethyl Glucuronide) is a direct metabolite of alcohol that can be detected in urine, blood, or hair samples. It is commonly used in alcohol testing because it remains in the system for a longer period of time compared to ethanol itself, providing a longer detection window for assessing alcohol consumption.

Does an etg test have to be sent to a lab?

As far as everything I have been researching tonight, yes, a urine specimen will be sent to a lab for testing. Other sites I have looked at tonight suggest that even with heavy drinking, by 48 hours, the test will be negative- also, the etG test can have many false positives due to household cleaners like lysol or hand sanitizer. Most on-site testing uses a breathalyzer and a 5 or 10 panel system.
