Ethyl Sulfate(EtS): a new direct marker of alcohol consumption  

 

                                                     

                                                                                                                                                                                                

                                        Determination of EtS in urine by LC-MS/MS

  

                                                                     EtS has been detected as a new direct marker for alcohol consumption besides ethylglucuronide. Quantitative analysis

                                                                     has been performed by LC-MS/MS and can be used for confirmation of EtG-positive samples. In a minor number of cases EtS

                                                                     was not present although EtG was detectable in low amounts - and vice versa.
