The Ethyl Glucuronide (EtG) test detects a direct metabolite of alcohol that remains in the body far longer than alcohol itself. While a standard breathalyzer or blood alcohol test only detects current intoxication, EtG can identify alcohol consumption up to 80 hours after drinking. It is commonly used in court-ordered monitoring, substance abuse programs, and professional licensing compliance.
