Breath Analyzer Market Driver

• Alcohol and drug misuse is on the rise

In the United States in 2021, approximately 10,511 people died as a result of drunk driving. Excessive alcohol consumption increases the risk of over 200 illnesses, including liver cirrhosis and several cancers. Every day, nearly 30 people in the United States are killed as a result of drunk driving (DUI) Furthermore, 20% of fatally injured drivers in wealthy countries had high blood alcohol concentrations. The increasing number of traffic accidents caused by drunk driving and drug use has increased the demand for breath analyzers, which aid in monitoring the presence of various substances and determining the blood alcohol concentration in a breath sample.

• Concerns about accuracy

Breath analyzers can often produce erroneous findings, unable to differentiate alcohol from any other molecular substance with a methyl group structure. Some alcohol testing equipment may detect not only ethyl alcohol (present in alcoholic beverages), but any chemical with a comparable molecular structure. Furthermore, lip gloss, mouthwash, dentures, paint, glue, thinners, cleaning solvents, hand hygiene foam, cigarettes, and even asthma inhalers can all affect breath analyzer test findings.
