Major Purposes of Forensic DNA Analysis

  1. Infidelity Tests:  Confidential DNA profiling to confirm or rule out suspicions of a cheating spouse. Ideal for private clients seeking discreet yet court‑admissible DNA test results.
    Please note: All infidelity tests require at least one biological sample of the person in question.
  2. Paternity and parental DNA testing: Establish biological relationships through accurate and affordable DNA testing services, including sibling and grandparent tests.
  3. Finding Genetic Mutations: DNA analysis is a comprehensive study of mutations/changes in your DNA that helps to identify the possibilities of genetic diseases that run in the family. The test is to alert people so that they can change their lifestyle for good. Please Note: Genetic mutation is not a 100% guarantee of the disease to happen in the future.
  4. Finding The Cause Of Death: To identify the cause of death for individuals who have lost their lives under sudden or unexpected circumstances.

All tests are conducted in our CLIA‑certified DNA laboratory, offering fast and reliable DNA analysis reports, not informal home test kits. Isn’t this all about the relationship you share with your loved ones? The matter is sensitive and we take it seriously.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q 1: What is a Forensic DNA Test?

A: A Forensic DNA test is a scientific examination that analyzes the genetic material present in an individual’s cells for investigative or legal purposes. This process involves identifying and comparing specific DNA sequences to determine relationships, identify individuals, or link a person to a particular crime scene.

Q 2: What kind of evidence can be found in a Forensic DNA Test?

A: Forensic DNA testing can analyze various biological samples, including blood, saliva, hair, semen, skin cells, and other bodily fluids. This testing can reveal valuable information about an individual’s genetic profile, enabling investigators to establish identity, assess relationships, and link individuals to crime scenes.

Q 3: How is a Forensic DNA Test Conducted?

A: Forensic DNA testing typically follows a standardized procedure. First, a sample containing DNA is collected from the crime scene or individuals involved. The DNA is then extracted, purified, and amplified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The amplified DNA is analyzed, and specific regions, such as short tandem repeats (STRs), are examined to create a unique genetic profile. This profile is then compared to reference samples to establish identity or relationships.

Q 4: How Accurate is Forensic DNA Testing?

A: Forensic DNA testing is highly accurate when conducted under controlled conditions and by trained professionals. The accuracy depends on factors such as the quality of the sample, the technology used, and the expertise of the analysts. Generally, DNA testing has a high degree of reliability, making it a powerful tool in criminal investigations and legal proceedings.

Q 5: What are the Limitations of a Forensic DNA Test?

A: While Forensic DNA testing is a valuable tool, it has limitations. Contaminated or degraded samples may yield inconclusive results, and the interpretation of complex mixtures can be challenging. Additionally, the statistical probability provided in DNA analysis is based on population databases and may have limitations in certain cases. It is crucial to consider these factors when interpreting results and presenting them in a legal context.
