Understanding Alcohol Testing for Family Law Proceedings
When testing for alcohol in family law settings, it’s important to know the latest tests available and how they differ from older methods.
In the case of blood testing, older tests include CDT, LFT and MCV, which are indirect markers of alcohol consumption. These are influenced by factors such as smoking, liver disease, medications, and genetics. PEth, by contrast, is a direct marker, increasingly regarded as the preferred method of blood testing.
Hair strand tests are another robust method for measuring alcohol consumption, but they carry important limitations that we will cover in detail. Finally, SCRAM. Is it the best and easiest method of measuring abstinence — and what lengths do subjects go to in an effort to defeat the device?
Pros and Cons:
<p>You’ll learn when to use which test to measure alcohol consumption — based on the time frame and context you want to explore.</p>
Practical Applications:
