The Alco-Screen product (manufactured by Chematics Inc.) is an oral alco screen test strip that determines the presence of blood alcohol content in either .02 No Tolerance formats or multiple BAC levels up to 3.0. The ALCO-SCREEN test consists of a plastic strip with a reactive pad applied at the tip. The tip, on contact with solutions of alcohol, will rapidly turn shades of green to blue to gray depending on the amount of alcohol present. The reactive pad employs a solid phase chemistry that utilizes the following enzyme chemistry that is highly specific in this application.
The blood alcohol concentration at which a person becomes impaired is variable dependent on the individual. Parameters specific to the individual such as physical size, weight, activity level, eating habits and alcohol tolerance all affect the level of impairment.
ALCO-SCREEN should be stored at room temperature, not to exceed 80ºF (27ºC). Under this condition, ALCO-SCREEN™ will perform according to specification until the expiration date stamped on the package. If storage temperature exceeds 80ºF, degradation of the product and performance may occur. Alco Screen test kits are a fast and easy way to determine sobriety on the job and in the field. Our alco screen saliva test is completely disposable and should only be used for a single application. Alco-Screen is the most affordable oral screening method on the market today. |
