DNA Family Reconstruction Test - The GENETICA DNA Test™

In cases where the alleged father is deceased or missing, a DNA reconstruction test may be performed. Such DNA testing is possible because the genes of the deceased or missing alleged father are present in his known biological family members (i.e., his parents, his siblings, his known children). The GENETICA DNA Test™ for Family Reconstruction is the most extensive and accurate DNA test available.

Samples are easily obtained from the inside of the mouth with a cotton swab, or with as little as 5 to 10 drops of blood. We will make an appointment for everyone being tested in the area near you.

How certain are the results when the reconstructed man is NOT the true father?
The GENETICA DNA Test™ for Family Reconstruction can prove conclusively that the reconstructed man is NOT the true father of the child. Such a DNA reconstruction test, however, requires that a sufficient number of family members with known relationship to the deceased are available for testing. Contact our laboratory for a case specific consultation.

How certain are the results when the reconstructed man IS the true father?
The GENETICA DNA Test™ for Family Reconstruction can provide greater than 99.9% probability of paternity. Such probability of paternity can be reached only if a sufficient number of family members with known relationship to the deceased are available for testing.
