Mouthwash contain more alcohol than wine. It contain 6.6% to 26.9% alcohol. A detail content of alcohol in mouthwash are as below:
Listerine 26.9%
Scope 18.9%
Signal 14.5%
Cepacol 14.0%
Listermint 6.6%
The total amount of alcohol in Scope original mouthwash is 18.9%. When used caution should be taken not to swallow the mouthwash.
No Listerine mouthwash cannot be halal as it contains very high alcohol content.
Not a good defense. Blood alcohol content is what alcohol is in your blood stream, not what's in your mouth. Even if the breathalyser is confused by the mouthwash, they can just do a blood test.
It depends on what kind of mouthwash it is. Non-alcohol? Or alcohol? Non-alcohol does expire. Mouthwash with alcohol in it expires too. I have Listerine and it has an expiration date on it, and it does contain alcohol.
Alcohol free mouthwash is better for children as it doesn't make them feel unwell but an adult is used to that but alcohol free is the way to go!
To anyone who is interested: I have just completed a research investigation into mouthwash, and it's inhibitory effect on bacteria. One of the findings was that the alcohol-free mouthwash actually repeatedly had a greater inhibition zone than the mouthwashes containing alcohol. This study is in no way conclusive, but I figured it was better than no answer :]
Yes absolutely. Unless a mouthwash specifically says 'no alcohol', most mouthwashes contain a large amount of alcohol. However, the effect of the alcohol in the mouthwash only last for a short time, unlikely to be long enough for a test to prove positive - unless you are actually using the mouthwash in the car.
only if the mouthwash had alcohol in it and you need to use it just minutes before the test.
Mouth alcohol takes around 20 minutes to disperse.
Ultimately no. Not all mouthwashes contain alcohol, but the ones that due are generally small in proportion to every other chemical Example: Alcohol in Mouthwash Listerine 26.9% Scope 18.9% Signal 14.5% Cepacol 14.0% Listermint 6.6% Source: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0816/is_1993_March/ai_13913959 Even if you were to use gallons of mouthwash, your breath would smell mintier. It is also unlikely that the alchohol content would show up on a police issue breathaliser.
You are not supposed to swallow mouthwash because of its high amount of ethanol, as some have more alcohol than an average beer.
no because first of all, you don't swallow the mouthwash and second, u could take a breathalizer 15 minutes after you use mouthwash and it wouldn't show up. so no it will not show up in a pee test unless your a idiotand drink it
It's 70 proof. Therefore, 35% is its alcohol content. Alcohol content is: proof divided by 2
