Sibling DNA Testing
Sibling DNA Testing
Confirm your family relationship
Think you may have additional siblings?
Or are you really related to your brothers and sisters? Do you suspect you may share a parent with another? When two people want to figure out whether they share the same father or mother (and that parent may not be available for testing) a sibling DNA test can be done to determine parentage and relationship between them.
Our informational, or at-home, Sibling DNA Test uses statistical analysis to compare the DNA of potential siblings. This DNA test can have three possible conclusions: Full Sibling (relationship is supported 90%+ genetic match), Half-sibling (relationship supported 50%-89% genetic match), and Unrelated (relationship not supported). These are based on percentages or sibling-ship indexes.
We always include the suspected or known parent in the testing process, especially when testing for legal reasons. Their DNA will speed up the testing process in our laboratory and increase the accuracy of the results.
Not including the suspected or known parent can lead to an inconclusive result. We highly recommend testing with a suspected/known parent.
How is a sibling DNA Test done?
Our easy to use informational Sibling DNA collection kit will be delivered to you by First Class USPS Mail (UPS Next Business Day available*). The kit will contain oral (buccal) swabs for each person that will be participating in the testing. The DNA samples can be collected at home by rubbing the oral swab on the inside of the cheek. Detailed instructions are included. When you are done, mail it back to our accredited testing lab in the enclosed prepaid envelope for processing.
Your results will be finished and your paternity report will ready and be sent to you within 2-3 business days after receipt in our lab.
