Interpretation of Hair EtG Results

Hair EtG test results can be interpreted using international standards such as those provided by

the Society of Hair Testing (SoHT). These guidelines provide ranges that may allow our clients to

differentiate between different alcohol usage levels.

As with a standard hair drug test, note that a Negative result may be indictive of either low-level

usage or possible abstinence. In general, hair specimens are analyzed to show lifestyle choices

including repeat usage.

While hair EtG samples can be segmented and shorter lengths can be processed, the SoHT

guidelines urge caution when interpreting these results. Segmenting hair into shorter lengths may

help establish trends (EG help demonstrate reduced alcohol ingestion in a more recent time period.
