Quantitative evidential breath-alcohol analyzers and screening testers in each of the five current categories of analytical principle were examined for response to dynamically-generated acetone vapor concentrations of 3, 100, 150, 350, and 600 micrograms/210 Liters. Nine of the 13 instruments tested were unaffected by acetone at any of these concentrations; three solid-state (Taguchi) sensing devices and one device employing single-wavelength infrared spectrometry displayed responses to acetone at the two highest tested concentrations. In view of a breath-acetone literature survey for ambulatory subjects and other considerations, response of the tested devices to acetone is not considered to be a significant problem in breath-alcohol analysis for traffic law enforcement purposes.
对当前五类分析原理中的每一类的定量证据呼气酒精分析仪和筛查测试仪进行了检测，以考察其对动态生成的丙酮蒸汽浓度为3、100、150、350和600微克/210升的响应。在测试的13台仪器中，有9台在这些浓度下对丙酮均无反应；3台固态（田口）传感装置和1台采用单波长红外光谱法的装置在两个最高测试浓度下对丙酮有响应。鉴于对非卧床受试者的呼气丙酮文献调查及其他考虑因素，在用于交通执法目的的呼气酒精分析中，测试装置对丙酮的响应不被视为一个重大问题。
