Resumo: This report describes the fabrication of devices in poly(dimethyl)siloxane (PDMS) for colorimetric determination of ethanol in whisky. The devices were fabricated via 3D printing and used to perform colorimetric assays with image detection using a scanner. The PDMS devices were evaluated comparing the results obtained from the water aliquot scans by extracting the pixel intensities in the RGB channel, where there was no statistical difference for a confidence level of 0.05. The iron complexation reaction with 1,10-phenanthroline was also evaluated by comparing the results of two different devices. Ferrous ammonium sulphate solutions were used at concentrations of 0,1 to 10 mg.L -1 , where correlation curves were obtained from the pixels intensities extracted in the yellow channel. The obtained equations were used to estimate the concentration of a known iron solution of 8 mg.L -1 , obtaining a difference of 0.74% between the results of both devices. The oxidation reaction of ethanol with potassium dichromate was used to determine ethanol in samples of seized whiskeys by Federal Police. It was possible to determine ethanol in the range of 0% to 60% (v/v), using a gray color channel for the concentration range of 0% to 20% (v/v) with R 2 = 0.993, with a detection limit of 0,86% and quantification limit of 1.44% and the yellow color channel for the concentration range of 20% to 60% (v/v) with R 2 = 0.998. It was possible to determine the ethanol content in 66 samples of seized whiskeys. Where 53 samples were discriminated as falsified and 13 samples were not discriminated from original samples based on the ethanol content.
