Description
Rapid, single-action screening test for the semi-quantitative determination of alcohol in saliva.
For self-testing, not for in vitro diagnostic use.
How to use
Before testing, allow the test strip in the package to reach room temperature (15-30°C). Do not put anything in your mouth for 15 minutes before starting the test. This includes soft drinks, tobacco products, coffee, mints, and food, etc.
1. Spit the saliva into the collection container.
2. Open the foil pouch and remove the test strip. Look at the test pad at the end of the strip. If the test pad is blue before applying the saliva sample, do not use it.
3. Saturate the reactive swab with saliva from the collection container or by applying saliva directly to the swab. (It usually takes 6-8 seconds for saturation.) Immediately after applying saliva, start the timer.
4. Read the result after 2 minutes. Compare the color of the test pad with the color chart on the foil package to determine the relative blood alcohol concentration.
Positive: The rapid breathalyzer test strip will change color if alcohol is present in the saliva. The color can range from light blue at a relative blood alcohol concentration of 0.50 g/l to dark blue at a relative blood alcohol concentration of close to 1.50 g/l. This range of pad colors allows you to get an approximate relative blood alcohol concentration. The test may produce colors that appear to be between two adjacent colored pads.
NOTE: The rapid breathalyzer test strip is very sensitive to the presence of alcohol. A lighter blue color than the colored pad corresponding to 0.50 g/liter should be interpreted as positive for the presence of alcohol in the saliva but with a relative blood alcohol concentration of less than 0.50 g/liter.
Negative: If the rapid alcohol test strip shows no color change, this result should be interpreted as negative, indicating that no alcohol was detected.
Void: If the reactive swab is blue before applying the saliva sample, do not use it.
NOTE: If the outer edges of the colored swab produce a slight stain, but the majority of the swab remains colorless, the test should be repeated to ensure complete saturation of the swab with saliva. The test cannot be reused.
Components
Reagents: tetramethylbenzidine, alcohol oxidase (EC 1.1.3.13), peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.7), other additives.
Warnings
- Read the entire package leaflet before performing the test.
- For self-testing, not for in vitro diagnostic use.
- For external use only.
- Do not use the test after the expiration date printed on the package.
- Do not use the test if the foil pouch is torn or damaged.
- Single use. Dispose after first use.
- The test device must remain in the sealed pouch until use.
- A contaminated or contaminated urine sample may give false results.
- Keep out of reach of children.
Restrictions
1. If you do not wait 15 minutes after eating, drinking or smoking before performing the test, you may get incorrect results, due to possible contamination of saliva with interfering substances.
2. The Rapid Breathalyzer Test Strip is very sensitive to the presence of alcohol. Alcohol vapors in the air can sometimes be detected by the Rapid Breathalyzer Test Strip. Alcohol vapors are present in many public buildings and homes. Alcohol is a component of many household products such as disinfectants, air fresheners, perfumes, and glass cleaners. If you suspect that alcohol vapors are present in the environment, it is recommended that you test in an area free of vapors.
3. Ingestion or use of over-the-counter medications and products containing alcohol may produce positive results.
Conservation
The test should be stored at 2-30°C (36-86°F) in its sealed foil pouch. Test performance may be degraded if storage temperatures exceed 30°C. If the product is refrigerated, the test should be brought to room temperature before opening the pouch.
Validity with intact packaging: 24 months.
Format
Package containing: test strip, collection container, information leaflet.
