Will the Alco-Sensors or Alcomonitor CC respond to diabetic Ketones?
The answer is no. The fuel cell responds to alcohol in the human breath. It will not respond to acetone which may be found in the breath of a diabetic, dieter or highly exercised individual. In fact, it has no significant cross sensitivity to any known substance that might be found in a living human subject after a 15-minute deprivation period.
