DNA Relationship Testing
DNA Relationship Testing can be used to assess if two or more people share a biological relation. In situations where the alleged parents are unavailable for testing, a DNA siblingship test can be performed to analyse the relationship of biological siblings through direct comparison with their alleged relatives.
Relationship Testing is slightly more complex than paternity testing and can be used to determine various types of relationships in different situations.
Depending on the people available for testing, there are several different testing methodologies that can be used according to the alleged relationships. An explanation of the various DNA testing methodologies is provided below.
DNA relationship testing is available worldwide through our DNA Sample Collection Kit.
The kit is provided free of charge. Your payment should be included with your samples when they are submitted to us.
