Determination of ethyl glucuronide and ethyl sulfate from dried blood spots [PDF]
International Journal of Legal Medicine, 2013 Ethyl glucuronide (EtG) and ethyl sulfate (EtS) are non-oxidative minor metabolites of ethanol. They are detectable in various body fluids shortly after initial consumption of ethanol and have a longer detection time frame than the parent compound. They are regarded highly sensitive and specific markers of recent alcohol uptake.

Influence of Gilbert’s syndrome on the formation of ethyl glucuronide [PDF]
International Journal of Legal Medicine, 2015 A drinking experiment with participants suffering from Gilbert's syndrome was performed to study the possible influence of this glucuronidation disorder on the formation of ethyl glucuronide (EtG). Gilbert's syndrome is a rather common and, in most cases, asymptomatic congenital metabolic aberration with a prevalence of about 5 %.
