The thresholdUnit on a RegulatoryThreshold must match the normalizedUnit used for AnalyticalResults being compared against it. If your normalized results are in ug/L and the RegulatoryThreshold's thresholdUnit is also ug/L, the comparison is direct and accurate. Mismatches between thresholdUnit and the result normalizedUnit lead to incorrect exceedance determinations. Administrators setting up thresholds should confirm the thresholdUnit matches the analyte's normalization convention before activating the threshold for exceedance detection.
