FLUID OUNCES CONSUMED

Beer ~ 12 oz. ~ 4-4.5%
Wine Glass ~ 4 oz. ~ 15-20%
1 Shot ~ 1.5 oz ~ 30-50%

BAC Percentage: ____
BAC Analysis: ____
___
Blood Alcohol Level percent = (v X z X d)/(r X M) - β *t
v = volume
z = percent per volume
d = density of alcohol (0.789 g/mL)
M= weight converted to kg
R = Rho - .73 for men and .66 for women (from Widmark)
β=beta= elimination rate 0.17*BAC
t= time - Hours since drinking started
