Cellife Oral Fluid Alcohol Test Kit
Saliva testing- the most convenient and least invasive method for alcohol testing.
The Cellife Oral Fluid Test Alcohol Test Kit is a rapid, highly sensitive method to detect the presence of alcohol in saliva and provide an approximation of relative blood alcohol concentration.
The blood alcohol concentration at which a person becomes impaired is variable and dependent on the individual. Each individual has specific parameters that affect the level of impairment such as size, weight, eating habits and alcohol tolerance. Inappropriate consumption of alcohol can be a contributing factor to many accidents, injuries and medical conditions.
It is well established that the concentration of alcohol in saliva is comparable to that of blood. The Cellife Oral Fluid Test Alcohol Test Kit consists of a plastic device with a reaction pad that will rapidly turn colours depending on the concentration of alcohol present. The pad employs solid-phase chemistry which uses a highly specific enzyme reaction.
Specifications
Interpretation of results
Positive: The Alcohol Rapid Test (Saliva) will produce a colour change in the presence of saliva alcohol. The colour will range light blue colour at 0.02% relative blood alcohol concentration to a dark blue colour near 0.3% relative blood alcohol concentration. The test may produce colours that appear to be between adjacent colour pads.
Note: The Alcohol Rapid Test (Saliva) is very sensitive to the presence of alcohol. A blue colour that is lighter than the 0.02%colour pad should be interpreted as being positive to the presence of alcohol in saliva but less than 0.02% relative blood alcohol.
Negative: When the Alcohol Rapid Test (Saliva) shows no colour change this should be interpreted as a negative result indicating that alcohol has not been detected.
Invalid: If the colour pad has a blue colour before applying the saliva sample, do not use the test.
Note: The result where the outer edges of the colour pad produce a slight colour but the majority of the pad remains colourless the test should be repeated to ensure complete saturation of the pad with saliva.
The test in not reusable.
