Excerpt

The answer to the question of whether the relevance of the results shown is restricted to Germany is a definite “no”. In the first place, the work described is pure research and investigates the concentration dependency of the relationship of BAC to BrAC, i.e. the conversion factor Q during the linear elimination phase. These results showed that Q is neither a constant, nor proportional to concentration, but inversely proportional to alcohol concentration. The way the BAC values are calculated from the measured serum concentrations does not influence this relationship, nor does the fact that the BAC values are expressed with the measuring unit wt/wt. Naturally, the numeric value of Q alters when influenced by the factors mentioned; this can, however, be calculated accordingly and adapted to a particular nation. However, the effects will be the same when expressed as a percentage. …
