The EtG content in hair correlates with the daily consumption of ethanol, and a cutoff level of 4–5 pg/mg hair has been proposed [52]. The level of EtG in hair collected from alcoholic patients ranged from <5 to 13,100 pg/mg.
What is the normal range for ethyl glucuronide?
False positive EtG results can occur from microbial formation or from fermentation and false negative EtG results can occur from bacterial degradation. The analytical measurement range is 100-10,000 ng/mL.
What is a high level of EtG?
A positive interpretation will be given if either the ethyl glucuronide result is greater than or equal to 250 ng/mL and/or the ethyl sulfate is greater than or equal to 100 ng/mL. A "high" positive (ie, >1,000 ng/mL) may indicate: -Heavy drinking on the same day or previously (ie, previous day or 2).
