Notes: Ethyl-β-D-Glucuronide-d5 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of ethyl-β-D-glucuronide (Item No. 22271) by GC- or LC-MS. Ethyl-β-D-glucuronide is a minor metabolite of ethanol.{52141,26664} It is primarily formed from ethanol by UDP glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs), but it can also be formed via β-glucuronidase cleavage and transfer of the glucuronide moiety in various non-ethanol-containing β-glucuronides to ethanol.{68346} Hair levels of ethyl-β-D-glucuronide are positively correlated with alcohol consumption in patients with alcohol dependence syndrome.{68347}
