Paternity Testing: DNA paternity testing determines the biological father of a child. We all inherit our DNA from our biological parents — half from our mother, and half from our father. A DNA paternity test compares a child’s DNA pattern with that of an “alleged father” to determine if there is a match. When performed correctly in an experienced laboratory, it’s the most definitive proof of a biological relationship.
Maternity Testing: Maternity DNA testing determines whether a woman could be the biological mother of a child. Like a DNA paternity test, it compares a child’s DNA pattern with that of the alleged mother to determine how likely it is that the child has inherited the DNA from the alleged mother.
Avuncular Testing: The aunt-uncle DNA test (or avuncular test) will determine whether a genetic relationship exists between aunts and/or uncles and their niece and/or nephew. Avuncular test results will show you a probability of relationship between tested parties.
Grandparentage Testing: Grandparentage DNA testing determines whether a couple could be the biological grandparents of a child. It is an indirect way to determine family relationships when an alleged father is not available for a paternity test. Grandparentage test results may be used as proof in Social Security benefit and other inheritance claims as well as in some immigration cases.
Siblingship Testing: A siblingship test is a DNA test conducted to determine if two children share one or both parents (i.e., if they are half or full siblings). It is an indirect way to determine family relationships when an alleged father is not available for a paternity test. Results of a siblingship test may be used as proof in Social Security benefit and other inheritance claims.
Twin Zygosity Testing: A twin zygosity test is a DNA test that definitively shows whether twins are identical or fraternal.
DNA Immigration Testing: DNA testing is an important step to complete the immigration process for family members. It is required to prove a biological relationship between a petitioner and a beneficiary, using an AABB accredited immigration DNA testing lab, when evidence is deemed insufficient or inconclusive by the USCIS or United States Embassy.
Ancestry Testing: Our DNA Ancestry Testing is able to tell you which countries and ethnic groups your ancestors came from as well as provides you with a personalized DNA map that shows were your ancestors originated from, that is suitable for framing if you so desire.
DNA Profiling: Our DNA profiling service allows individuals to obtain a record of their genetic profile—a unique combination of 16 markers found in their DNA that serves as a permanent genetic ID.
Infidelity Testing: An Infidelity DNA Test compares DNA that is extracted from an item submitted to a known reference sample, generally a buccal swab sample.
