How Does A Home DNA Test Work?

A home DNA test is used to collect DNA samples in the privacy of your own home. Samples are sent to our laboratory without verifying the identity of the person providing the sample. A home DNA test for paternity or maternity (Curiosity Tests) are for those who are ‘curious’ about their biological relationships.


Home Paternity Testing

A home DNA test for paternity helps determine whether the adult being tested is the biological father of the child or children. A standard paternity DNA testing kit includes obtaining a DNA sample from the mother, if available.

Home Maternity Testing

A home DNA test for maternity helps determine whether the adult being tested is the biological mother of the child or children.

Children get 50% of their DNA from each parent. With a standard maternal DNA testing kit, you can verify the mother/child relationship (maternity) without having to test the father.

Curiosity vs. Legal

Each DNA test can be conducted as a home DNA test – “Curiosity” or a court-approved “Legal” test. We always recommend that you obtain a Legal DNA test if there is any chance that the results will be contested in a court of law.
