    EtG test for alochol-up to 7 days
    hello everyone, I have a random question. I've heard alcohol can stay in your system for 7days? Im freaking out.. I drank hardcore tues/wed/thurs, and might have to take a UA on tues. I've been sweating for two days straight, and working out, drinking lots of vitamin water. Any Comments!!

    Most laboratories do not test for Ethyl Glucuronide (EtG), a metabolite of ethanol. Rather, the majority are looking for Urine Alcohol Content (UAC).

    EtG can be detected, on average for 60+ hours. Far longer than a measurable UAC. However there are wide inter-individual variations in EtG tests. The last study I reviewed, individual detection ranged from 30-110 hours, after consumption of an equal amount of alcohol.
