Dear Teresa,

The ETG test is used to check how much alchohol a person has consumed.  I could not find any reference that says it is used to test for other drug addictions.  Hope this answers your question.

Do you mean EtG? If so, then the only thing an EtG test detects is alcohol consumption.

The EtG/EtS test can detect alcohol in urine up to 80 hours after consumption. This is a very useful tool for a zero tolerance policy on alcohol consumption.

This urine alcohol laboratory test is the most advanced commercially available test you can find.

A Medical Review Officer (MRO) service with this test is available upon request (please enter order notes during checkout). An MRO is trained and licensed to review positive drug and alcohol test results. An MRO will compare results with legal prescription and over the counter medications.

Advantages of Alcohol ETG & ETS Urine Tests over other Alcohol Tests

  • As these tests are based on Liquid chromatography followed by Mass Spectrometry profiling, proper measurement of both metabolites can easily differentiate a 'deliberate consumption' from an 'accidental environmental exposure' which is one of the most probable excuses!    
  • The EtG/EtS confirmation is the perfect testing method for 'Zero Tolerance' situations and an effective and noninvasive tool for voluntary treatment facilities and school systems.    
  • The EtG/EtS can not be masked by illnesses i.e. urinary tract infections and false positive results from diabetes are eliminated.

    Two conventional methods have been used for alcohol testing - simple urine tests and Breathalyzers. These methods are used to detect if one has consumed alcohol recently; but no such method was able to ascertain if one has taken alcohol within last week! This is because alcohol dissipates itself from the system in a matter of hours. Recently, a new protocol has come up which is being tagged as “gold standard of alcohol testing” & has changed the face of alcohol testing industry for this can tell if someone has taken alcohol even few days back!

    This powerful protocol has successfully been employed by two newly developed testing techniques - the ETG (Ethyl Glucuronide) Test & The ETS (Ethyl Sulphate) Test, which, in a short span of time, have gained sudden popularity for a simple yet cogent inherent advantage over all the conventional methods. These methods are able to sketch down the whole alcoholic consumption history of the last 80 hours where as, simple and conventional urine test and breathalyzers can give a plot only for the last few hours. The alcohol dissipates itself from the system within few hours and here these conventional methods simply fail whereas, ETG & ETS tests still work!

I don't wish to be argumentative ,but I disagree with the Islamic belief that I should be killed! " If radical atheists decided they needed to kill believers to ensure their place in nothingness, I'd be criticizing that too."
