BreathScan Technology
Within minutes of drinking alcohol, an individual's blood alcohol concentration starts to rise. Unlike food, alcohol is absorbed directly through the walls of the stomach, goes into the bloodstream, and travels throughout the body and to the brain. This allows blood alcohol levels to increase quickly.
Most of the alcohol is broken down in the liver; the rest of it is passes out of the body in urine and exhaled breath. BreathScan breath alcohol detectors contain chemically-coated crystals that change color when exposed to alcohol released from the breath. When the subject blows/exhales into the tube, the YELLOW crystals interact with breath vapor. After 2 minutes, if the majority of the crystals change to a light AQUA (GREEN/BLUE, BLUE/GREEN) cast, this indicates that the test result is Positive and the subject's breath alcohol level is at or above the level printed on the Detector label. If they remain a shade of Yellow, the test result is Negative, indicating that the subject's breath alcohol level is below the level printed on the Detector label. |
