Medicolegal alcohol determination: variability of the blood- to breath-alcohol ratio and its effect on reported breath-alcohol concentrations.
There is substantial agreement among scientists that the variability of a person's blood- to breath-alcohol ratio contributes significantly to the experimental error in results from breath-alcohol analysis. Some have argued that the need to correct for this source of error can be eliminated by reporting breath test results in units of breath-alcohol concentration rather than blood-alcohol conce...
متن کاملComparison of Breath and Blood Alcohol Concentrations in a Controlled Drinking Study
In the research of influence of alcohol on the mental and physical state of the body alcohol concentration in the blood plays an important role which must be properly defined. Therefore, the aim of our study was to examine breath and blood alcohol concentration in ten young, healthy, non-smoker male volunteers after consuming a red wine, containing 13 vol % of alcohol. Red wine (3 ml/kg) was co...
متن کاملMedicolegal Alcohol Determination - Blood- or Breath-Alcohol Concentration?
Measuring the concentration of alcohol in body fluids represents a large part of the workload at forensic science and toxicology laboratories. In traffic-law enforcement, breath-alcohol testing is used worldwide for roadside screening and for evidential purposes. Many jurisdictions have adopted per se laws which make it a crime to drive with a blood- or breath-alcohol concentration above a pres...
متن کاملPredictors of breath alcohol concentrations in college parties
BACKGROUND Alcohol use and subsequent consequences are harmful for individual college students. Other students and the university can also be negatively impacted by the consequences of alcohol use. METHOD A field-based study was used to assess the alcohol use environment at college parties. Researchers replicated a previous study by driving and walking a route to identify parties primarily on...
متن کاملBreath Alcohol Concentration and Breath Temperature
Breath alcohol concentration, breath temperature, and body temperature are used to extrapolate the breath alcohol concentration to the concentration of alcohol in the deep lung air, which is in equilibrium with the pulmonary blood. Introduction The variability that is seen in the breath alcohol test (note: “alcohol” means ethyl alcohol) has always been more or less ignored as inevitable “biolog...
