Alcohol can be detected after 24 hours but only under certain situations. The only time alcohol is detected is if a blood test is taken otherwise what is detected are specific metabolites of alcohol. These can be detected for about five and upto seven days after drinking.

I work in an alcohol rehab clinic where we carry out random tests on our clients on a daily basis, so you can take this answer to the bank.

It depends on the strength and the volume of the alcohol as well as a persons age, sex and metabolic rate, on average it takes a person's liver one hour to metabolise one unit of alcohol.

?One unit of alcohol is about equal to:
?half a pint of ordinary strength beer, lager or cider (3-4% alcohol by volume), or
?a small pub measure (25 ml) of spirits (40% alcohol by volume), or
?a standard pub measure (50 ml) of fortified wine such as sherry or port (20% alcohol by volume)
