Key Features of the Forensic Test
Forensic DNA testing services
Due to the nature of the New York State Department of Health's regulations, we cannot offer any DNA tests to New York residents. Click here if require more info about DNA testing in NY.
The forensic testing service may be used for our both our standard paternity test, as well as for the complete range of DNA tests. The service is not typically applicable to legal DNA testing unless the authenticity of the sample can be official confirmed through proper chain of custody procedures.
The complete list of the forensic DNA samples our laboratory is able to analyse is shown below. The additional cost for each sample is also included, as well as the expected DNA extraction success rate. Please also review the terms and conditions HERE for forensic DNA samples.
Note: We can only guarantee standard result turnaround time when testing takes place solely using oral swab samples. Using a forensic sample for your test may lead to an increase in turnaround time.
Note: We are unable to test samples belonging to any test participants without their informed consent. Any test participant submitting a DNA sample must sign our consent form authorizing us to test their sample. Children under the legal age of consent can have their legal guardian or parent/s sign on their behalf.
We also require that the person from which the DNA sample has been collected to be made fully aware of what their DNA sample will be used for. The absence of any form of refusal, comment or assent does not signify consent.

The Human Tissue Act
It is important to be aware that in the UK the Human Tissue Act regulates the collection and analysis of any human tissue. In order to send a sample for analysis, the person or donor of that sample must give their consent in writing in order for us to test their sample. Furthermore, in order to be fully compliant with the Human Tissue Act, the donor of the sample must also be made aware of how their DNA sample will be used. Failure to comply with the Human Tissue Act is a criminal offence.
We will not proceed with any testing if we do not have consent from all test participants. Testing any samples will be put on hold until we get the required signatures from all individuals.
