Alcohol Facts by National Draeger
EXHIBIT B-9
Currently the results of a breath test for alcoholic influence are expressed in terms of blood alcohol concentration. It is sometimes important to differentiate between alcohol concentration data obtained directly from the analysis of blood samples and data obtained from the analysis of breath samples. Therefore, one may find in recent literature that the term "Blood Alcohol Concentration (B&C)" is being reserved for data obtained from the analysis of blood samples, and the results of breath alcohol analysis are expressed in terms of "Blood Alcohol Equivalents (BAQ)." Numerically the two terms are identical. Thus, when a person with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.10% is given a breath test, a reading of 0.10 BAQ should be obtained.
