Can one 12once beer be detected on a scram ankle monater?

Yes, one 12-ounce beer can be detected on a SCRAM ankle monitor. SCRAM (Secure Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitoring) ankle monitors use transdermal sensors to detect the presence of alcohol in a person's sweat. Alcohol consumption causes an increase in the concentration of ethyl glucuronide (EtG) in sweat, which can be detected by the SCRAM monitor.

The sensitivity of SCRAM ankle monitors can vary, but they are generally able to detect EtG levels as low as 5 ng/mL. This means that even a small amount of alcohol consumption, such as one 12-ounce beer, can be detected by the monitor.

It is important to note that SCRAM ankle monitors do not measure blood alcohol content (BAC). Instead, they measure the concentration of EtG in sweat, which can lag behind BAC levels. This means that it may take some time after drinking alcohol for the SCRAM monitor to detect it.

If you are wearing a SCRAM ankle monitor, it is important to avoid consuming any alcohol, even in small amounts. Alcohol consumption can violate the terms of your probation or parole, and it can also lead to serious consequences, such as jail time.
