Breathalyzers can also "strike", i.e. show values
on the display when the test person has not drunk any alcohol.
This can be the case, for example, with:
- Diabetics with acetone (acetone is a metabolic product
that occurs, for example
produced, for example, by insulin
deficiency)
- if the microbiology of the intestine is disturbed (homebrew syndrome)
- with disinfectants or solvents in the ambient air
- if the test candidate has previously taken medication
- repeated use of the breathalyzer mouthpiece.
Please always use a new mouthpiece for
each measurement
