DNA Paternity Test
Fast, Powerful and Proven
DNA Paternity Testing is the most advanced and accurate method available for resolving parentage for medical, legal, or personal reasons. This test will conclusively determine whether an alleged father is the true biological father of a child. A DNA paternity test can be performed with or without the mother. If the mother already knows that she is the biological mother of the child, then testing the mother is optional. Our laboratory guarantees greater than 99.9% probability of paternity for inclusions and 100% for exclusions. All tests are automatically run twice to ensure 100% accuracy. The full genetic report is included with every test

Description
During a paternity test, DNA samples are collected from both the child and the alleged father via a buccal swab (mouth swab). The collected sample consists of cells, which contain DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) that holds a full set of genetic information unique to each individual, similar to a fingerprint.
In the laboratory, the DNA is extracted from the cells and certain regions of the DNA are amplified through a process called PCR (polymerase chain reaction) for careful analysis. The child’s DNA pattern is then compared to that of the alleged father. As a child inherits their genetic information from their biological parents, examining the DNA of the child can accurately determine whether the alleged father is the biological father of the child.
Turnaround Time
With advanced DNA technology, paternity testing is accurate, rapid and affordable. Paternity can now be determined 1 to 3 business days after the samples arrive at the laboratory. Results are released immediately once the testing is completed.

FAQ
Who should consider the Private Test option?
The private home test kit option is suitable for individuals who wish to find out the truth about maternity before deciding on the next step. If a private test is ordered, a buccal swab (mouth) swab DNA kit is sent directly to the parties involved in the test for sample collection. The sample collection process is quick, easy and discreet and takes just minutes to complete. Once the laboratory receives the samples, testing is completed within 1 to 3 business days.
Can the kit be shipped to more than one address if the parties live in different cities?
If the people being tested live at different addresses, we can divide the DNA testing kit and send each part to separate locations. The kits have barcodes to make sure the samples are still tested together when they arrive at the laboratory. To get a split kit, write “please split this kit” in the comments section of the online order form and give us the name and address of where to send each part. For example, you could say “send the Alleged Father’s part to…(provide name and address)” and “send the Child’s part to…(provide name and address).” Alternatively, you can have the complete kit shipped to you and divide it yourself, and then send the parts to the other people involved in the testing.
Who should consider the Legal Test option?
The legal paternity test is intended for court use and is accepted as definitive legal proof of paternity or non-paternity in courts throughout the U.S. Legal tests are commonly used in various legal situations, including court cases, custody and estate disputes, and inheritance. If you choose the legal testing option, we will schedule an appointment for all parties involved to provide samples at one of our designated Genetrack chain-of-custody sample collection facilities.
What if the parties to be tested live in different cities or do not wish to attend the same appointment?
We know that it can be challenging when people involved in DNA testing live in different cities. To make things easier, we can arrange separate appointments for each person at their own location. Our scheduling department will coordinate the appointment dates for each individual, making the process as smooth and hassle-free as possible.
Is the Private Home DNA Test as accurate as the Legal Test?
The Home DNA Test is just as accurate as our standard legal tests and will provide absolutely conclusive results. The only difference between the private test and the legal test is whether the sample collection is witnessed.
