Concentration is expressed as mass per volume, for example milligrams per millilitre (mg/mL) or micrograms per millilitre (mcg/mL). It is the central quantity in laboratory documentation because any statement about a volume of solution is meaningless without it. Concentration also underpins pharmacokinetic reasoning, where plasma concentration over time describes exposure.
