Alco-Screen Saliva Alcohol Testing Kit is a screening test used to estimate Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) using human saliva. The test strip indicates BAC at 0.00%, 0.02%, 0.04%, 0.08%, and 0.30%.
Alco-Screen Saliva Alcohol Testing Kit, by Chematics, is a saliva alcohol test intended for use as a rapid, highly sensitive non-invasive method for the objective determination of alcohol ingestion. With positive results, relative blood alcohol concentration may be approximated by colorimetric visual observation. For applications requiring a quantitative determination of blood alcohol concentration, a positive Alco-Screen Saliva Alcohol Testing Kit result must be verified using an acceptable quantitative alcohol procedure. Alco-Screen requires no special training provided that instructions are followed carefully. However, quantitative follow-up testing should be performed by a qualified professional.
Alco-Screen Saliva Alcohol Testing Kit may also be used to qualitatively detect the presence of alcohol in many other fluids, such as drinks, blood serum etc. See Limitations for further information.

Alco-Screen Saliva Alcohol Testing Kit Procedure
- Abstain from placing anything in the mouth for fifteen (15) minutes prior to beginning the test. This includes non-alcoholic drinks, tobacco products, coffee, breath mints, food, etc.
- Open the foil package and remove the test strip. Observe the reactive pad on the end of the test strip. The pad should be a light cream color. A test strip with a reagent pad which is dark tan in color or otherwise discolored must be discarded.
- Saturate the reactive pad with saliva from the mouth or sputum cup. Immediately start the timer.
- At two (2) minutes observe the color change (if any) in the reactive pad. A color change of green or blue indicates the presence of alcohol and a positive result. Results obtained after more than 2 minutes and 30 seconds may be erroneous.
- Estimate the approximate blood alcohol concentration by comparing the color of the reagent pad with the color chart appearing on the test package.
Results
Alco-Screen Saliva Alcohol Testing Kit produces a color change in the presence of saliva alcohol ranging from a light green-gray color at 0.02% (0,20‰) blood alcohol concentration to a dark blue-gray color near 0.30% (3,0‰) blood alcohol concentration. Color blocks are provided within this range to allow an approximation of blood alcohol concentration to be made. Alco-Screen™ may produce colors that appear to be between adjacent color
blocks.
Alco-Screen Saliva Alcohol Test is very sensitive to the presence of alcohol. A green color that is lighter than the 0.02% color block should be interpreted as being positive to the presence of alcohol in saliva but less than 0.02% (0,20‰) blood alcohol.
A result where the reagent pad shows no color change (remains white or cream colored) should be interpreted as a negative result (no alcohol present).
A result where the outer edges of the reagent pad produces a slight color but the majority of the pad remains colorless should be repeated to ensure complete saturation of the reagent pad with saliva. If the second result is the same, the results should be interpreted as being negative (no alcohol present).

FAQ For Alco-Screen Saliva Alcohol Testing Kit
- A CONTROL Line should always appear as proof the test has worked, and that the sample is suitable for testing.
No line on the test area is POSITIVE (or non-negative). We advise that you send this sample to the lab for further testing. - Any line, no matter how faint, on the test area is a NEGATIVE result. (See faint lines information.)
- It is normal for lines to develop at different rates, and have different intensities.
- A negative result can appear in under a minute.
- To read a positive result you will need to wait the full five minutes before reading the results.
- Tests should not be read after 10 minutes.
- Tetrahydrocannabinol THC (marijuana)
- Methamphetamine (“ice”, ecstasy)
- Amphetamines (“speed”)
- Cocaine
- Benzodiazepines
- Opiates/Morphine (derivatives of the opium poppy including heroin, morphine, codeine)
No. By using Australian Standards approved drug testing devices the likelihood of a false positive is drastically reduced. But there are occasions when a false positive can occur from a donor who is neither abusing drugs nor has taken an illicit drug. This is why it is recommended that all positive tests should be confirmed by a National Association of Testing Authorities, Australia (NATA) Accredited Laboratory for further testing. All on-site tests should be considered presumptive until verified by an Accredited Laboratory.

Just a quick note so say how massively impressed I was to get back to my apartment a few minutes ago and find two packages waiting at reception for me from Australia Drug Testing.

Ann R, N.S.W.
Our company has been a customer of ADT for 15yrs. We have experienced nothing but unwavering support with a wealth of knowledge from this organisation. We have always used their products with full confidence, however, in recent Covid-19 times ( when products were difficult to obtain ), we trusted the professional advice of the team at ADT to try the ECO Cup II. WOW! This cup brings a whole new meaning to the word instant, and the quality and accuracy the same. I highly recommend ECO Cup ll drug screen cups and ADT for their friendly and reliable service.
