What are cutoff levels and how does this work?
Cutoff levels in drug testing refer to the predetermined thresholds set for detecting the presence or absence of specific drugs or their metabolites in a person's system. These levels are established to distinguish between individuals who have recently used drugs and those who have not. The cutoff levels vary depending on the type of drug being tested and the testing method employed. For instance, in urine drug testing, the cutoff levels are typically set to identify the concentration of drugs or their metabolites present in the urine sample. If the detected concentration exceeds the established cutoff level for a particular drug, it indicates a positive result, suggesting recent drug use. Therefore, cutoff levels play a crucial role in determining the outcome of drug tests and ensuring accuracy in identifying drug use.
