Breath Alcohol Test

Service Description

A breath alcohol test, also known as a breathalyzer test, is a diagnostic procedure used to measure the amount of alcohol present in a person's breath. This test is often used to estimate blood alcohol content (BAC), which indicates the level of alcohol in a person's bloodstream. During a breath alcohol test, the individual blows into a breathalyzer device, which then measures the concentration of alcohol in their breath. The device works by detecting and measuring the ethanol molecules exhaled from the lungs. The concentration of alcohol in the breath is then converted into an estimated BAC level, providing an indication of the person's level of impairment due to alcohol consumption. This test is employed in workplace alcohol testing programs and other situations where alcohol impairment needs to be assessed.
