Description:
Ethyl β-D-Glucuronide, a byproduct of ethanol metabolism, has been proposed as a promising biomarker for detecting excessive alcohol intake, both in the short- and long-term. Its clinical relevance lies in its utility as a diagnostic tool for drug and alcohol testing. The scientific community's ongoing efforts to establish reliable methods for measuring and interpreting Ethyl β-D-Glucuronide levels speak to its growing importance as a marker of alcohol consumption.
