Immunoassay for ethyl glucuronide in vitreous humor: A new tool for postmortem diagnostics of alcohol use  Juha Rainio, Johanna Kultti, Päivikki Kangastupa, Heidi Tuomi, Sanna Ahola, Pekka J. Karhunen, Anders Helander, Onni Niemelä  Forensic Science International  Volume 226, Issue 1, Pages 261-265 (March 2013) DOI: 10.1016/j.forsciint.2013.01.040 Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Ireland Ltd Terms and Conditions

Fig. 1 Vitreous humor ethyl glucuronide (VH-EtG) levels in cases with (4.23±4.85mg/l) or without (0.18±0.28mg/l) a documented history of excessive alcohol use, and in blood alcohol concentration (BAC) positive (4.45±2.56mg/l) and BAC negative (2.55±6.59mg/l) cases, as determined by an EtG immunoassay. The differences in VH-EtG concentrations between the two groups were statistically significant (p<0.001).

Fig. 2 Correlation between vitreous humor ethyl glucuronide (VH-EtG) immunoassay values and blood alcohol concentrations (BAC, ‰). At an EtG cut-off of 0.3mg/l, there were 12 patients who tested positive for VH-EtG despite testing negative for BAC.
