General Questions About DNA Testing

Your first step is finding an AABB-accredited DNA testing laboratory. Only laboratories approved by the American Association of Blood Banks are accepted for immigration DNA testing purposes. Furthermore, for general purposes, only AABB lab results hold up in various other court cases. Take a look at the approved sources here. After finding the right testing site, schedule an appointment, pay the fees, and show up at the DNA testing clinic.

Not to our knowledge, DNA testing laboratories charge for analyzing DNA. DNA collection sites charge their customers to cover these costs.

Generally speaking, yes. Actually, a lot of this depends on the DNA testing site you choose. You want to choose carefully and go for a reputable site that inspires confidence in you. Ultimately, each business holds their own standards – so make sure to perform your due diligence.

DNA testing is a very simple process. The standard procedure involves utilizing a buccal swab to collect the individual’s cheek cells. Additionally, the process involves swabbing for up to 30 seconds to collect enough cheek cells, and then storing it in a sterile container.

Not at all, it’s a quick and painless process. It only takes 30 seconds and there are no needles involved.
After collecting your sample, the DNA testing facility delivers your samples to an AABB DNA testing lab. Then, the lab technicians analyze your DNA and compile a report. Finally, they send this report directly to you
So far, DNA testing remains the ‘Gold Standard’ for various testing purposes due to its accuracy. Actually, DNA testing currently sits at about 99.99% accuracy for cases of inclusion. Conversely, it is 100% accurate for denying the existence of a genetic match.

Questions About DNA Tests performed in Detroit

Chain of custody refers to the proper custody and control of the DNA samples throughout the testing process so that the results are accurate and cannot be tampered with at any stage of the testing process. It includes: A neutral third party who can identify the persons being tested and collect their DNA samples. Delivery of paperwork and the samples at a testing location without any tampering. Proper handling and testing of DNA and paper work by a qualified laboratory.

We immediately send a notification email to the address on file as soon as the online report is ready to view. For a legal paternity test, all tested parties receive a hard-copy of the report as long as mailing addresses are given in writing.

Yes. There are a few options. We can perform a test using a parent of the alleged father or sibling of the alleged father, if available. Also, a paternity test can be performed using a sample containing the alleged father’s DNA, such as, blood, hair, finger nails, toe nails, etc.

No. DNA testing for the purpose of establishing paternity, maternity or any other relationship is not a health related test. There are no diagnosis or CPT codes available, which are required by insurance companies. Therefore, they are not covered by any form of health insurance.

There is no difference in the accuracy of DNA tests performed using blood versus buccal swabs. This is because the cells of your cheek (and all other types of bodily tissue) contain the same DNA as the cells of your blood.

A DNA test cannot prove that a tested man is the biological father of a child with 100% certainty because the possibility that the tested man is matching the child due to random chance (coincidence) can never be completely ruled out. However, most courts consider a probability of paternity of 99% or greater as strong and sufficient evidence of paternity. Current DNA testing produces probabilities of paternity greater than 99.9%.

Unfortunately, this is not the case. Additionally, the approval process involves reviewing many factors. Although, it’s worth noting that matching DNA tests definitely help expedite your case.
