What is blood alcohol in forensics science?

blood alcohol level is the percent of alcohol in the blood at any given time. i would imagine in forensic science could use this to determine maybe a cause of death. For example if someone is killed by a drunk driver including the driver. forensics could determine the cause of the accident was drunk driving related. They would take a sample of blood and determine there was a percentage of alcohol in it (blood alcohol level).

Is it possible to have a blood alcohol level of 185?

Blood alcohol rates are given as a percentage in tenths of a percent, so a blood alcohol rate of .725 stone dead. ( I think the highest ever recorded in some one who survived, is 0.65 ) a blood alchol rate of 0.0725 us below the legal limit of 0.08 but is very close, likely to cause driver imparement. Consult your local DMV's Driver Handbook for the definitive answer.

What does 3mmol alcohol level convert to as blood alcohol number?

To convert 3 mmol of alcohol to blood alcohol concentration, you would need to know the volume of distribution in the body. Without this information, a direct conversion is not possible. Blood alcohol concentration is typically measured in units of mass per volume (e.g., g/dL or mg/L), not in mmol.

-alcohol consumption -mouthwash -diabetic ketoacidosis. Not so much an alcohol smell, but a fruity smell as the body releases ketones to rid itself of severely high blood sugar. A person in this situation may appear to be intoxicated on alcohol because of the hyperglycemia. Blood tests would demonstrate a high blood sugar reading instead of a high blood alcohol level. This is a dangerous condition requiring hospitalization.
