Breathalyzer is a non-invasive medical device used for the estimation of Blood Alcohol content (BAC) from a breath sample. Breathalyzer is used to test intoxication levels caused by alcohol and drugs. Breathalyzer was invented by Dr Robert Borkenstein while being appointed as a police photographer at the Indiana State Police lab.
Since 1954, Breathalyzer is a genericized trademark for many instruments like Alcotest, Alcosensor, Datamaster, Intoxilyzer and Intoximeter. The Breathalyzer device consists of three parts, the first part consists of a system where breath is sampled, the second part consists of two glass tubes with chemicals and the third part consists of photocells that are connected to the meter showing colour change.
Due to the use of a Breathalyzer, there is no need for any invasive procedure, the device is portable and test results are out in seconds. Another important use of Breathalyzers is in maintaining high-order discipline in National and International air transport to maintain safety and standards while travelling.
Breathalyzer is of very significant use to prevent order and discipline in government or private offices, road traffic management and forensic studies too. It is also used for management in rehabilitation centres, mining and construction centres.
