Who needs to be tested?
In a standard DNA paternity test, DNA samples are collected from the mother, the child, and the alleged father (called mother, child, alleged father DNA paternity test). The collection of the mother's sample is not absolutely necessary for DNA paternity testing; however, the mother's sample helps to identify in the child those genes that came from the mother and eliminate them from consideration in a paternity test. The laboratory can perform a highly accurate DNA paternity test without the mother's sample by performing additional DNA analysis (called single parent-child DNA paternity test). Genetica DNA Laboratories does not charge extra fees to perform this more extensive testing.

How are specimens collected ?
Specimens are easily obtained from inside of the mouth with a cotton swab. Four Corners Drug Testing follow strict chain of custody documentation for client identification, specimen collection, and specimen shipment to ensure the DNA paternity test results are admissible by all courts and government agencies.

How certain are the results when the man IS the father?
The average probability of paternity is greater than 99.99999%. We guarantee greater than 99.9% probability of paternity in all tests where the child and alleged father are tested.
