Ethanol:

This test measures the amount of ethanol in the blood, urine, breath, or saliva. Ethanol (also called ethyl alcohol or alcohol) has been consumed by civilizations throughout the world for thousands of years. Small amounts of ethyl alcohol can cause euphoria, relaxation, and decreased inhibition.

Moderate amounts can cause impaired judgment and decreased motor skills; large amounts in a relatively short period of time can cause acute ethanol toxicity with disorientation, depressed breathing, coma, and even death. Chronic ingestion of large quantities of alcohol can lead to alcoholism and to permanent liver damage


Liver damage

When ethanol is consumed, it is absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract, and carried throughout the body in the bloodstream. Small amounts of ethanol are excreted in the urine or exhaled from the lungs, but most is metabolized by the liver. The liver considers ethanol a toxin. With the help of enzymes, it oxidizes the alcohol first to acetaldehyde, then to acetate, and then finally to carbon dioxide and water. The liver can process about one drink an hour with one drink being defined as the amount of ethanol in 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine these lead to liver damage
