|  The
Consumer Genetics AbuseCheck™ Hair Alcohol Abuse
Test (HAT) is a non-invasive testing procedure which
provides a definitive timeline of alcohol abuse. It has been
used by law enforcement agencies, healthcare professionals,
and employers to identify individuals with recent
histories of alcohol abuse.
The most common use for this product is in child
custody cases, where one parent is being accused
of regularly abusing alcohol. The AbuseCheck FAEE
Hair Alcohol Abuse Test is a well established and proven science
which leads to an accurate result for proving
whether a person has been abusing alcohol.
 The
AbuseCheck™ Hair Alcohol Abuse Test is
unique in that alcohol is normally only ingested and does
not come in any other form (i.e. gas) that would cause ambiguities
or false positive results.
Who Uses this AbuseCheck™ Test:
- For Legal Purposes: Prove your client
is fit to have custody of his/her children or for use in
post-accident testing.
- For Healthcare Professionals: Prove your
patient does not have an alcohol dependency or identify
people with an alcohol addiction (i.e. mandatory for liver
and kidney transplants). Measure the efficacy of an alcohol
treatment program.
- For Forensic Use: Since ethanol is the
most frequently encountered drug in postmortem forensic
toxicology laboratories, this test may provide insight into
the individual’s history of alcohol consumption which
may be relevant to a case (or to prove that a driver in
a road accident was not in the habit of overindulging in
alcohol).
- For Public Sectors: Many public organizations
and sectors examining the physiological and behavioral effects
of alcohol can utilize this test to aid in their research
(i.e. studies between the correlation of alcohol habits
and risk of vehicular accidents).
 For
Human Resource: Certain high profile or public
safety jobs may require abstinence from alcohol for certain
periods when performing a task and this test can ascertain
any drinking issues of a potential hire or employee.- For Parents of Teenagers: Parents who
want to test their teens to be certain that they are not
abusing alcohol.
Mass Spectroscopy is currently the benchmark confirmatory
test by the forensic community around the world. This method
allows for Quantitation and conclusive identification of drugs
and their metabolites. It has the sensitivity and precision
to quantify alcohol at concentrations as low as 0.01 g/dL
and can distinguish ethanol from other types of alcohol such
as isopropanol (rubbing alcohol) or ethylene glycol (antifreeze).
