AlkoTest is a disposable, certified test for measuring alcohol content in exhaled air. The lowest alcohol level detected by the breathalyzer corresponds to 0.2‰ (per mille) of alcohol in the blood, or approximately 0.1 mg/l of alcohol in exhaled air.

How does a disposable breathalyzer work?

The breathalyzer consists of a glass tube, an active substance in the form of adsorption granules, filters, and two protective caps wrapped in aluminum foil. You can begin using the AlkoTest at least 15-20 minutes after your last alcohol consumption. Alcohol in your breath reacts with crystals contained in the test tube, generating a color reaction to approximate blood alcohol levels. You can read the result by comparing it to the color references found on both the breathalyzer and the packaging.

Remember that a blood alcohol content of 0.2‰ per mille can impair driving ability, posing a direct threat to life and health, as well as a threat to road users. Take an AlkoTest after drinking alcohol and ensure a safe return home. You can place a 2-pack in your car first aid kit or purse and keep it always at hand.
