Drug Test CutOff levels

Understanding Drug Test Cutoff Levels

What is the Cutoff Level for Drug Tests?

Whether you are taking a urinalysis test, administering a workplace drug testing program, or taking an at home drug test, cutoff levels are important to understand.  Not only that, but it’s important to understand what they mean in the context of the drug test. 

Every testing cup from 12 Panel Now’s inventory contains testing strips with all different cut-off levels.  Moreover, all of the drugs of abuse tested have different detection times as well. Understanding these concepts is important; especially before you begin the test process.

In a drug test, a negative result is a specimen that does not indicate a level of drugs at, or above the specified concentration. That specified concentration used is called the cut-off level. A specimen that contains drugs at or above the determined cut-off level is considered a positive drug test result.

If you are interested in locating the cut-off level for your product, 12 Panel Now provides information on each shipment.  Each package comes with a Cut-off level list located on the second page of the pamphlet shipped.
