Product Description

Saliva Alcohol rapid Test

INTENDED USE

    Rapid Alcohol Test is intended for use as a rapid method to detect the presence of alcohol in saliva for blood alcohol concentration (BAC) greater than 0.*2%. It has been published that the concentration of alcohol in saliva is almost equal to that in blood.

    The rapid test is intended for the semi-quantitation of ethyl alcohol in human saliva. To confirm the concentration of positive specimens, an alternate, non-enzymatic technology such as headspace gas chromatography should be used.

PROCEDURE

1. Open the foil package and remove the test strip.

2. Saturate the reactive pad by dipping the reaction pad into the saliva specimen collected in a sputum cup, or by applying saliva directly to the reaction pad. After *0 seconds, shake off the excess saliva.

3. Immediately start timer and at 2 minutes, compare the reactive pad with the provided colored chart.

Results after more than 2 minutes may be not accurate

INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS

Negative: Almost no color change by comparing with the background. The negative result indicates that the BAC is less than 0.*2%.

Positive: A distinct color developed all over the pad. The positive result indicates that the BAC is 0.*2% or higher.

Invalid: The test should be considered invalid If only the edge of the reactive pad turned color that might be ascribed to insufficient sampling. The subject should be re-tested.
