Is DNA Testing accurate?
DNA testing is highly accurate when proper chain-of-custody and accredited laboratory procedures are followed. All DNA samples undergo a strict dual-analysis process to help ensure reliable and accurate results for claimed biological relationships.
In exclusion cases, additional extended testing may be performed using up to 27 genetic markers to help confirm whether the tested individuals are biologically unrelated.
Important Note: One of the most common misconceptions we encounter is that blood testing is more accurate than a cheek swab. In reality, both specimen types provide comparable DNA testing accuracy because the laboratory analyzes the DNA itself rather than the specimen source. As a result, a cheek swab remains the preferred collection method for most DNA testing cases.
Is walk-in DNA testing available in Edison, NJ?
No. All appointments are by appointment only, this maintains that your case receives the attention to detail it deserves for proper chain of custody establishment.
