Description
Parentage testing when the father is not available can be looked at like a puzzle. At DNA Testing Centre we’ll investigate every avenue that may produce a desired outcome. There may be relatives we can test—and we most likely need to talk to you about your options. “Family Genetic Reconstruction” can sound intimidating, but one of our friendly DNA experts can explain this option on the phone in simple terms.
A Family Genetic Reconstruction is a series of DNA tests conducted to determine biological family relationships. Most often, it’s used to confirm if a child is related to the father’s close relatives. This DNA test is an indirect way to determine family relationships when a potential father is not available for a paternity test. Results of genetic reconstructions can be used to satisfy curiosity, but also may be used as proof in Social Security and other inheritance claims.
This test will mark 20 loci markers instead of the usual standard 15 or 16 that other DNA companies may provide and can be upgraded to our 25 loci marker test for an additional $25.
This is a more accurate and conclusive test.
*If you need more than three people to test, please order an Add-on test for $100 US ($125.00 CN) for each additional person, Eg: another child, or alleged father, etc.
Please inquire for other types of tests, or multiple complicated situations. (Ancestry, cousins, half brothers or sisters, grand parents, multiple fathers, etc.)
