Paternity Testing
Our Standard Trio Paternity Test is the most common and accurate way to determine biological fatherhood. This test compares DNA samples collected from the child, the mother, and the alleged father, providing a comprehensive and reliable analysis.
​
How it works:
-
A simple, non-invasive buccal swab (cheek swab) is used to collect DNA from each participant.
-
Samples are securely processed in our accredited partner laboratory.
-
The results clearly confirm or exclude a biological relationship with 99.99% accuracy when the alleged father is included.
​
Why choose the trio test?
-
Increases accuracy and clarity by including the mother’s DNA.
-
Easy and painless collection with quick turnaround times.
-
Court-admissible options available upon request.
​
With this test, families can gain the peace of mind and legal certainty they need. Results are delivered in a confidential, secure manner.
Siblingship Test - Full and Half Siblings
A siblingship DNA test helps determine whether two individuals share one or both biological parents. This test is often chosen when the alleged father or mother is unavailable for testing but a sibling comparison can provide valuable answers.
​
How it works:
-
Non-invasive buccal swabs (cheek swabs) are collected from both individuals.
-
Our accredited partner laboratory analyzes shared genetic markers to assess whether they are full siblings (sharing both parents) or half siblings (sharing only one parent).
-
Results provide a clear probability of biological relatedness.
​
Why choose siblingship testing?
-
A reliable option when parental testing is not possible.
-
Determines whether siblings share both parents or only one.
-
Confidential results delivered securely, with legal testing options available if needed.
​
This test provides families with accurate answers and peace of mind, helping clarify biological relationships when direct parental testing isn’t an option.
Twin Zygosity Test
A twin zygosity DNA test determines whether twins are identical (monozygotic) or fraternal (dizygotic). While identical twins share virtually the same DNA profile, fraternal twins share about 50% of their DNA, just like any other siblings. This test is quick, painless, and provides families with scientific confirmation of twin status.
​
How it works:
-
Buccal swabs (cheek swabs) are collected from both twins.
-
Our accredited partner laboratory compares genetic markers to determine whether the DNA profiles are identical or not.
-
Results clearly indicate whether twins are identical or fraternal.
​
Why choose twin zygosity testing?
-
Provides clarity when twins look very similar but it’s uncertain if they are identical.
-
Helpful for medical reasons, as identical twins may share closer health-related traits.
-
Offers families peace of mind and a scientific record of twin type.
​
Results are delivered confidentially and securely, helping families confirm twin status with accuracy and confidence.
Grand Parentage Testing
When a biological father is unavailable for testing, a grandparentage DNA test can help determine a child’s family relationship. This test compares the DNA of the child with one or both paternal grandparents to establish whether a biological link exists.
​
How it works:
-
A painless buccal swab (cheek swab) is collected from the child and the available grandparent(s).
-
Our accredited partner laboratory analyzes the DNA, looking for inherited genetic markers.
-
Results provide a clear answer about the likelihood of a biological relationship.
-
​
Why choose grandparentage testing?
-
Reliable option when the alleged father cannot be tested.
-
Can be performed with one or both grandparents, though both increase accuracy.
-
Results are highly conclusive and confidential.
​​
This test provides families with clarity, peace of mind, and, when requested, legal documentation to confirm biological relationships.
Y-STR Test
A Y-STR test is used to determine whether two or more males share the same paternal lineage. This test analyzes the Y chromosome, which is passed virtually unchanged from father to son, making it a reliable way to confirm biological relationships along the male line.
​
How it works:
-
Simple buccal swabs (cheek swabs) are collected from each male participant.
-
Our accredited partner laboratory examines Y-STR (Short Tandem Repeat) markers on the Y chromosome.
-
Results show whether the tested males share the same paternal line.
​
Why choose Y-STR testing?
-
Ideal when the alleged father is unavailable, but other male relatives are.
-
Useful for confirming relationships such as brothers, uncle–nephew, grandfather–grandson, or cousins.
-
Provides clear results with high reliability for paternal lineage.
​
This test offers families clarity about paternal biological relationships and can be conducted for peace of mind or with legal documentation upon request.
Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity (NIPP) Test
A non-invasive prenatal paternity test allows families to determine biological fatherhood during pregnancy—without any risk to the mother or unborn child. This advanced test uses the latest technology to provide accurate and reliable results before the baby is born.
​
How it works:
-
A simple blood draw from the mother captures free-floating fetal DNA.
-
A buccal swab from the alleged father provides the paternal DNA sample.
-
Our accredited partner laboratory applies Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) to analyze 2,688 SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) markers, generating highly accurate data to confirm or exclude biological fatherhood.
​
Why choose NIPP testing?
-
Completely safe and non-invasive for both mother and baby.
-
Offers early answers to questions of paternity during pregnancy.
-
Results are highly accurate, confidential, and delivered securely.
-
​
This test provides families with peace of mind and clarity during a critical time, using cutting-edge DNA technology to deliver reliable results.
Avuncular Testing
An avuncular DNA test helps determine whether a child is biologically related to the brother or sister of a possible father. This test is especially useful when the alleged father is not available for testing, as it compares the child’s DNA to that of an aunt or uncle.
​
How it works:
-
Non-invasive buccal swabs (cheek swabs) are collected from the child and the aunt/uncle.
-
Our accredited partner laboratory analyzes shared genetic markers to evaluate the likelihood of a biological relationship.
-
Results provide clear answers regarding the probability of relatedness.
​
Why choose avuncular testing?
-
Reliable alternative when the father cannot be tested.
-
Works with either an aunt or uncle, though more participants may increase accuracy.
-
Provides valuable clarity for families seeking confirmation of biological ties.
​
This test delivers results confidentially, with options for legal documentation when required, helping families move forward with confidence.
Mitochondrial (mtDNA) Relationship Test
A Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) test is used to determine whether two or more individuals share the same maternal lineage. Unlike nuclear DNA, mtDNA is passed down virtually unchanged from mother to child, making it an effective way to confirm biological relationships along the maternal line.
​
How it works:
-
A simple, non-invasive buccal swab (cheek swab) is collected from each participant.
-
Our accredited partner laboratory analyzes mitochondrial DNA to identify whether the tested individuals share a common maternal ancestor.
-
Results indicate if the individuals are biologically related through their mother’s side of the family.
​
Why choose mtDNA testing?
-
Useful when the alleged mother is not available for testing.
-
Confirms maternal relationships such as siblings, maternal cousins, aunt/niece, grandmother/grandchild.
-
Provides highly reliable results for maternal lineage.
​
This test delivers confidential results that bring families clarity and peace of mind, with options for legal documentation if required.
Maternity DNA Test
A maternity DNA test confirms whether a woman is the biological mother of a child. While less common than paternity testing, this test is highly accurate and provides families with scientific certainty in cases of adoption, surrogacy, immigration, or hospital mix-ups.
​
How it works:
-
Non-invasive buccal swabs (cheek swabs) are collected from the child and the alleged mother.
-
Our accredited partner laboratory compares the DNA profiles, examining genetic markers inherited from the mother.
-
Results confirm or exclude a biological mother–child relationship with accuracy greater than 99.99%.
​
Why choose maternity testing?
-
Provides clarity and peace of mind for families.
-
Supports legal documentation needs such as immigration or custody cases.
-
Confidential results delivered quickly and securely.
​
This test is simple, painless, and definitive—giving families the answers they need with full confidence.
