etg testing one drink?

Asked Dec 7, 2011, 07:24 PM — 4 Answers
My friend is on probation and chose to have one lager beer 10 hours before a test was popped on him. He is 140 pounds and doesn't drink. He is in good shape. He said he ate dinner afterward and slept about 5 hours.

The amount of EtG created by one beer usually requires from 18-21 hours to clear based on a 100 ng cutoff. (Toxicology News or EtG/EtS)

Do you know the cutoff being used for the test?

I think that is the right number. Poor guy is probably going to get screwed. He should've refrained.

Probably cut it too close. EtG wouldn't peak until about four hours after the drink and then begin to decline. There's always a chance with low intake but he will probably test positive based on available information.

If you get a chance would like to hear results either way.

Thanks
