Intended Use
The Mission Saliva Alcohol Test Strip is a screening test used to semi-quantitatively measure alcohol in human saliva. The test strip indicates relative Blood Alcohol Concentration at 0.0%, 0.02%, 0.04%, 0.08%, and 0.30% cut-off levels. Results are used in the diagnosis of alcohol intoxication. For in vitro diagnostic use only.
Device Description
The Mission Saliva Alcohol Test Strip is a screening test used to semi-quantitatively measure alcohol in human saliva at 0.0%, 0.02%, 0.08%, and 0.30% Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC). Results are used in the diagnosis of alcohol intoxication. The test is a firm plastic strip with a test pad attached at the tip. The test pad contains chemicals that are highly sensitive to alcohol in saliva reacts with the chemicals to produce a color change on the test pad. The color change depends on the amount of alcohol present. The results are read by comparing the color of the test pad with the color chart. The test gives relative Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) from 0.02% to 0.30%.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies indicate a simple chemical reaction resulting in a color change, read by visual comparison to a chart. There is no mention of computational analysis, algorithms, or learning processes.

No
The device is a diagnostic test kit used to measure alcohol in saliva for the diagnosis of alcohol intoxication; it does not treat or prevent any condition.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "Results are used in the diagnosis of alcohol intoxication. For in vitro diagnostic use only."

No

The device description clearly states it is a "firm plastic strip with a test pad attached at the tip" containing chemicals that react to saliva. This describes a physical, hardware-based test strip, not a software-only device.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly states: "For in vitro diagnostic use only."
  • Purpose: The device is designed to measure alcohol in human saliva, which is a biological specimen.
  • Diagnostic Use: The results are explicitly stated to be "used in the diagnosis of alcohol intoxication."
  • Mechanism: The device uses a chemical reaction on a test pad to detect and semi-quantitatively measure alcohol in the saliva sample. This is a common characteristic of IVD tests.

The information provided strongly indicates that this device falls under the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The performance characteristics of the Mission Saliva Alcohol Test Strip were evaluated by the following studies: precision, analytical specificity-blank reading, cigarette smoke interference, analytical specificity-volatile substances, temperature flexibility, lighting effect, reading time flexibility, and specimen storage and stability.
Clinical studies were conducted with laypersons and trained laboratory technicians using the Mission Saliva Alcohol Test Strip. The study data were presented evaluating the accuracy of the Mission Saliva Alcohol Test Strip compared to an evidentiary breath test, Alco-Sensor IV, manufactured by Intoximeters Inc. which is a DOT/NHTSA approved device (Conforming Product List of Evidential Breath Alcohol Measurement Devices - FR/Vol 72, No 241/December 2007), per the ACON Clinical Study Protocol. Study results indicate that non-professional, inexperienced laypersons were able to obtain comparable readings when using the Mission Saliva Alcohol Test Strip as compared to the results obtained by the trained technicians. In addition, the participating laypersons were questioned and responded as satisfied with the ease of operation by following the Instructions for Use and the overall performance of the Mission Saliva Alcohol Test Strip.

Laboratory Testing:

The performance characteristics of the Mission Saliva Alcohol Test Strip were evaluated by the following studies: precision, analytical specificity-blank reading, cigarette smoke interference, analytical specificity-volatile substances, temperature flexibility, lighting effect, reading time flexibility, and specimen storage and stability.

Discussion of Clinical Tests Performed:

Clinical studies were conducted with laypersons and trained laboratory technicians using the Mission Saliva Alcohol Test Strip. The study data were presented evaluating the accuracy of the Mission Saliva Alcohol Test Strip compared to an evidentiary breath test, Alco-Sensor IV, manufactured by Intoximeters Inc. which is a DOT/NHTSA approved device (Conforming Product List of Evidential Breath Alcohol Measurement Devices - FR/Vol 72, No 241/December 2007), per the ACON Clinical Study Protocol.
