Forensic Use Only Tests - FUO

Forensic use drug tests are drug test kits built and validated for court ordered, probation, and government or law enforcement testing programs rather than general clinical use. MDG carries FUO drug test kits in cup, dip card, and oral fluid formats covering fentanyl, alcohol, synthetic cannabinoids, and other commonly screened substances for agencies and testing programs that need forensic grade accuracy.

Built for legal and administrative testing, not just clinical screening

General drug tests are not always accepted by courts, probation offices, or government agencies. FUO test kits are manufactured and labeled specifically for forensic and legal testing programs, so results hold up where they need to.

Cover more drugs without adding more devices

Skip the mismatch of running separate single panel tests for every drug of concern. Multi panel FUO cups screen up to 20 drugs at once, saving time and reducing the number of devices your program has to manage.

Choose the collection method that fits your setting

A cup that requires private collection is not always practical for observed testing. FUO oral fluid tests and dip cards give agencies and probation programs flexible options for supervised or field collection.

Stay current on emerging substances

Programs that only test for older drugs risk missing what people are actually using now. FUO kits cover newer threats like xylazine, fentanyl, K2, and kratom alongside standard panels, so testing programs don't fall behind.

Choosing the right forensic use only drug test starts with device type and drug panel.

Forensic use only drug tests come in cup, dip card, and oral fluid formats, and the right choice depends on how and where testing happens. Dip cards work well for fast field or intake screening and single drug panels like fentanyl, kratom, or cotinine. Our Drug Test Cups suit multi panel programs that need to screen 12 to 20 drugs at once, including fentanyl, alcohol, K2, and tramadol. Our Oral Fluid Tests fit observed collection settings common in probation and law enforcement testing. Compare device types against our CLIA Waived Drug Tests collection to see how forensic and clinical testing needs differ before you select a device.

 

FUO drug test kits support courts, probation, and government testing programs.

Forensic use only tests are manufactured and labeled for legal and administrative testing rather than clinical diagnosis, which makes them the standard choice for probation offices, courts, and law enforcement agencies. These kits screen for fentanyl, alcohol, synthetic cannabinoids, kratom, gabapentin, and other substances agencies track under supervision programs. Government and workplace testing programs also use FUO kits when results support employment or compliance decisions outside a clinical setting. Explore the Government testing page and Made in USA collection to find kits that match your program's sourcing and reporting requirements.

 

MDG helps agencies and labs build reliable forensic testing programs.

Beyond individual test kits, MDG supports agencies with bulk fulfillment, custom panel configurations, and guidance on matching device type to program requirements. Treatment facilities and government programs often mix dip cards, cups, and oral fluid tests to cover both routine screening and confirmation needs. Our team can help agencies compare panel counts and adulteration coverage to build a testing program that fits their caseload and budget.
