A METHOD FOR THE DETERMINING OF BREATH ALCOHOL WITH MULTIFRACT (GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY)

This paper describes an apparatus which can collect breath in evacuated gc ampoules. It will then be possible to analyse the gas phase of these samples of these gc ampoules on ethyl alcohol and other volatile organic components in breath with multifract of "Perkin-Elmer". The analysis of the data obtained is made by the interior standard method with a sufficient exactness. The differences of comparative measurements under various conditions between the breath alcohol apparatus alcytron (draeger) and our own apparatus are discussed. Comparative test studies of breath alcohol and blood alcohol with test persons are conducted. (TRRL)
