ETG Alcohol Urine Test Dip Card (80 Hour Detection Window)

The EtG Alcohol Urine Test kit dip card provides a fast, easy and accurate way to test for the detection of alcohol consumption for up to 80 hours, longer than any other instant result alcohol test on the market.

EtG testing has previously only been available through laboratory testing, but our new EtG Urine Test Kit dip cards deliver a lab-like testing procedure wherever you are performing drug tests. You will receive accurate, reliable results in just a few minutes, at a fraction of the cost of lab-based EtG tests.

• Up to 80 Hour Detection Window Period
• Comparable to Lab-Based Testing
• 300 ng/mL Sensitive Cut-off Level (~ one beer)

Instructions:

• Remove the test panel from the sealed pouch and use it within one hour
• Remove the plastic cap
• Immerse the test panel vertically in the urine specimen for 10-15 seconds

Drug cut-off:
Ethyl Glucuronide (EtG) 300 ng/ml

 

Results: 

Negative: Two distinct colored lines appear.  One colored line should be in the control line region (C), and another colored line should be in the test line region (T). 

Positive: One colored line appears in the control region (C).  No line appears in the test line region (T). 

INVALID: Control line (C) fails to appear.  Insufficient specimen volume or incorrect procedural techniques are the most likely reasons for the control line failure.  Review the procedure and repeat the test using a new test. 

Additional Information:

• Ethyl Glucuronide (EtG) is a minor, non-oxidative metabolite of alcohol (ethyl alcohol or ethanol). EtG is used as a marker or surrogate for ethanol in the body because of its much longer half-life compared to ethanol itself. EtG in urine can therefore indicate recent consumption of alcohol long after the ethanol itself can no longer be measured or detected.1 
• EtG was first described in the early 1950s, but it wasn't until 2001 that it was identified as an alcohol marker by two doctors, Dr. Gregory Skipper (USA) and Dr. Friedrich Wurst (Switzerland) when they did a study of alcoholics in a psychiatric facility in Germany2. Their findings showed how EtG in urine, in comparison with ethanol, was a more sensitive and reliable indicator of both drinking and abstinence.
