Abstract Consumption of alcohol and problems related to alcohol vary widely around the world. Especially illegally produced and distributed alcohols have a great risk for human health, since they include high quantity of toxic substances. Ethanol measurements have high specificity for excessive alcohol intake. Ethyl Glucuronide (EtG) is considered as

Sensitivity of commercial ethyl glucuronide (ETG) testing in screening for alcohol abstinence [PDF]
The '80 h Ethyl Glucuronide (EtG) test' has become an idiom of the alcohol testing community, a review of the literature shows this window of detection applies only to extreme cases. EtG testing is becoming more common as a method to test for alcohol consumption in individuals who have been ordered to abstain from alcohol consumption.

Estimation of Prenatal Alcohol Exposure: Comparison of Retrospective Survey and Measurement of Fatty Acid Ethyl Esters, Ethyl Sulfate, and Ethyl Glucuronide Concentrations in Neonatal Meconium [PDF]
Determining the concentration of fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs), ethyl sulfate (EtS), and ethyl glucuronide (EtG) is crucial for establishing the true scale of prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) and enabling early diagnosis of fetal alcohol spectrum ...

Testing for alcohol use in hair: is ethyl glucuronide (EtG) stable in hair? [PDF]
Purpose : Ethyl glucuronide (EtG) is a biological marker in hair used to indicate abstinence or excessive alcohol consumption. The main aim of this paper is to evaluate the stability of EtG in hair samples as it can potentially be affected by normal hygiene, and affect interpretation of the results.

Data on ethyl glucuronide and cocaethylene concentrations in the hair of cocaine users [PDF]
We present data on ethyl glucuronide and cocaethylene concentrations from the hair of cocaine users. Head hair from 64 subjects, previously tested for cocaine, cocaethylene, benzoylecogonine and anhydroecgonine methyl ester (AEME), were subsequently ...

Anonymous Diaper-Based Meconium Collection for Ethyl Glucuronide Analysis: A Pilot Feasibility Study [PDF]
Prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) is a major public health concern, yet maternal self-reporting remains unreliable. Meconium accumulates alcohol metabolites during the second half of gestation, and ethyl glucuronide (EtG) is considered a stable and ...

A digital twin framework for forensic reconstruction of alcohol intake via fast and slow metabolite kinetics [PDF]
Accurately determining the timing and/or amount of consumed alcohol is critical in healthcare and forensic contexts, yet self-reported data are often unreliable due to stigma and legal implications. Objective biomarkers are therefore essential.

Phosphatidylethanol and ethyl glucuronide to categorize alcohol consumption in alcohol-related cirrhosis [PDF]
Background & Aims: Phosphatidylethanol (PEth) is an alcohol-use biomarker that could bridge the detection windows of urinary ethyl glucuronide (uEtG) and scalp hair ethyl glucuronide (hEtG), but has been rarely validated in patients with liver ...
