Does the amount of alcohol you consume affect the detection time of etg?!


Question:

Does the amount of alcohol you consume affect the detection time of etg?

say you have one standard drink
1 beer
1 shot etc...
will the etg be able to be detected the same period of time as say you had 5 or 6 standard drinks?
does anybody know ive searched for this and connot seem to find it.


Answers:
Sounds pretty techincal. But it looks like you would be able to detect the Etg for up to 80 hours after elimination of ethanol by the body in urine. It doesnt sound like the quantity of ethanol would matter. If you had ethanol, you would produce the Etg which could be detected. I would call the lab referenced below. Prehaps your really wondering wether the sensitivity of the test would be able to determine how much alcohol you had. Im thinking No.
good luck
!
