ETG Urine Alcohol Test 

Explore our range of ETG (Ethyl Glucuronide) urine test strips, designed to provide accurate and reliable detection of alcohol consumption through urine samples. These test strips detect ethyl glucuronide in urine, a metabolite of ethanol, allowing you to monitor alcohol use even after ethanol has been metabolised and excreted by the body.

We offer urine ETG test strips calibrated for various detection windows to suit different alcohol testing needs:

  • UKDrugTesting ETG Test Strips: Ideal for detecting recent alcohol use, with results showing positive for up to 24 hours after consuming 2 units of alcohol.
  • ALLTEST ETG Test Strips: Designed for extended detection, identifying alcohol consumption for 36–72 hours. These are perfect for environments requiring long-term monitoring, such as probation programs or alcohol treatment settings.

Whether you’re conducting routine testing or monitoring alcohol abstinence, our ETG urine test strips provide a convenient and trustworthy solution. Shop now to find the right ETG test strips for your needs.

ETG urine test strips – Alcohol detection made simple

Our EtG urine test strips provide a fast and reliable way to detect ethyl glucuronide (EtG), a metabolite of alcohol, in urine samples. These test strips are commonly used for alcohol abstinence monitoring, probation and rehabilitation programmes, and personal use.

What are EtG urine test strips?

EtG urine test strips are designed to detect alcohol consumption for up to 80 hours after drinking. Unlike traditional breathalyser tests, which only measure recent alcohol levels, EtG testing identifies alcohol use over an extended period, making it a valuable tool for monitoring sobriety and compliance.

Key features:

✔ Fast & accurate results – Get reliable results in minutes
✔ Extended detection window – Detects alcohol use for up to 1–4 days
✔ Easy to use – Simple dip-and-read design
✔ Highly sensitive – Detects even low levels of alcohol metabolites
✔ Discreet & convenient – Suitable for both home and professional use

Who uses EtG test atrips?

🔹 Rehabilitation & Recovery Programmes – Ensuring alcohol abstinence
🔹 Occupational health testing – Monitoring alcohol-free policies
🔹 Legal & probation testing – Confirming compliance with court orders
🔹 Concerned parents or partners – Checking for alcohol use in loved ones

What is an EtG urine test?

An EtG urine test detects ethyl glucuronide (EtG), a biomarker produced when alcohol is metabolised in the body. Unlike digiatl reathalysers, or breathalyser kits which detect only recent alcohol consumption, EtG tests can identify alcohol use for up to 72 hours after drinking. The ETG test is often also know as the 80 hour alcohol test.

How long does alcohol stay detectable in urine with an EtG test?

EtG can be detected in urine for up to 3–4 days (72 hours) after alcohol consumption, depending on factors such as metabolism, hydration levels, and alcohol intake.

How accurate are EtG urine test strips?

EtG urine test strips are highly sensitive and reliable, detecting even low levels of alcohol metabolites. However, results can vary based on sample collection, the test kit used, handling, and individual metabolic differences.

Can an EtG test tell how much alcohol was consumed?

No, EtG tests only detect the presence of alcohol metabolites, not the amount of alcohol consumed. A positive result confirms alcohol exposure but does not indicate specific consumption levels.

Can anything cause a false positive on an EtG test?

Yes, certain alcohol-containing products such as mouthwash, hand sanitiser, or some medications may lead to a false positive. It's important to check product ingredients and consult guidelines before testing.

Can drinking water help pass an EtG test?

While hydration can dilute urine, EtG metabolites remain detectable for several days. Drinking water excessively may reduce EtG concentration but will not completely eliminate it from a positive sample.

Are EtG urine tests used in legal or workplace settings?

Yes, EtG tests are widely used in probation monitoring, rehabilitation programmes, some workplace testing if there is a zero alcohol policy, and family law cases to verify alcohol abstinence.
