Development and validation of LCMS method for determination of Ethyl Glucuronide (EtG) in urine [PDF]
Medical Journal Armed Forces India, 2022 Ethyl glucuronide (EtG) is a phase II metabolite of ethanol and is an upcoming biomarker for recent alcohol intake. Monitoring of alcohol intake in case of alcohol-dependent syndrome is very useful for early intervention and preventing harmful effects.

Clinical usefulness of a urine dipstick to detect ethyl glucuronide (EtG): A quantitative clinical study in healthy young female volunteers [PDF]
Basic and Clinical Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2021 AbstractThe metabolite of ethanol, ethyl glucuronide (EtG), reflects alcohol intake longer than ethanol and is used as a biomarker in clinical settings to detect alcohol use. We aimed to assess the clinical usefulness in a low‐to‐moderate alcohol intake setting and validate a new urine EtG dipstick.

Commercial Ethyl Glucuronide (EtG) and Ethyl Sulfate (EtS) Testing is Not Vulnerable to Incidental Alcohol Exposure in Pregnant Women [PDF]
Substance Use and Misuse, 2016 Ethyl Glucoronide (EtG) and Ethyl Sulfate (EtS) have shown promise as biomarkers for alcohol and may be sensitive enough for use with pregnant women in whom even low-level alcohol use is important. However, there have been reports of over-sensitivity of EtG and EtS to incidental exposure to sources such as alcohol-based hand sanitizer.

High levels of agreement between clinic-based ethyl glucuronide (EtG) immunoassays and laboratory-based mass spectrometry [PDF]
American Journal of Drug and Alcohol Abuse, 2015 Immunoassay urine drug screening cups that detect use for two or more days are commonly used in addiction treatment settings. Until recently, there has been no comparable immunoassay test for alcohol use in these settings.The aim of this study was to assess the agreement of a commercially available ethyl glucuronide immunoassay (EtG-I) test conducted ...

A wearable biochemical sensor for monitoring alcohol consumption lifestyle through Ethyl glucuronide (EtG) detection in human sweat. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2016 AbstractWe demonstrate for the first time a wearable biochemical sensor for monitoring alcohol consumption through the detection and quantification of a metabolite of ethanol, ethyl glucuronide (EtG). We designed and fabricated two co-planar sensors with gold and zinc oxide as sensing electrodes.
