Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) serves as the gold standard for confirming drug testing results obtained from on-site or preliminary screening. GC/MS offers unparalleled sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy, enabling identification and quantification of trace substances in complex biological or environmental samples. Its role is critical in validating rapid tests, resolving inconclusive results, and providing legally defensible evidence in forensic, clinical, and regulatory contexts. Integrating GC/MS confirmation ensures reliability, reduces false positives and negatives, and strengthens confidence in both field and laboratory drug testing protocols.
