It dilutes the urine sample. The idea here is the test kit looks for a quantity of drug per ml of urine. Let's say it wants to see 100 nanograms of drug per ml of urine, and right now you're at 120. If you were to fill the jar half full of urine and half full of water, the effective quantity would now be 60ng/ml, and you'd pass.

The problem with doing it this way is you'd also dilute all the chemicals that are supposed to be in there, like creatine. How we detect dilution is by testing the creatine level. If there isn't enough of it in each ml of urine, we know you diluted your sample.

Why is Red dye put in toilet during urine collection?

If someone tries to alter their urine sample by adding water or another substance, the dye will change color and indicate that the sample is not genuine. This is commonly used in drug testing scenarios to ensure the accuracy of results.
