Forensic DNA Test

A forensic DNA test recovers and analyzes DNA from non-standard or discreet samples, such as personal items, when a standard cheek swab is not available. TestMark DNA can use these alternative samples to build a DNA profile or support a relationship test. Because the amount and quality of DNA on such items varies, success is not guaranteed, so call us first for a consultation to assess viability.

When Is Forensic DNA Testing Used?

Forensic testing is the right path when a standard cheek swab cannot be collected. These are the most common reasons people call us about testing alternative samples.

Discreet Relationship Testing

When you need a relationship answer privately, an everyday personal item can sometimes provide a usable DNA sample for a personal-knowledge test.

A Person Who Cannot Be Swabbed

When someone cannot provide a standard cheek swab, a personal item they have used may be the only available source of their DNA.

Confirming a DNA Profile

Forensic samples can be used to build or confirm a DNA profile for an individual using alternative material instead of a swab.

Peace of Mind

When certainty matters, we assess whether your available samples are viable so you can move forward with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

What samples can be tested for a forensic DNA test?

Forensic testing can attempt to recover DNA from many non-standard or discreet samples, such as everyday personal items a person has used. Some items hold more usable DNA than others, so success rates vary. Call us to describe what you have and we will tell you whether it is likely to work.

Is success guaranteed with forensic DNA testing?

No. The amount and quality of DNA on a non-standard sample varies, so results cannot be guaranteed. That is why a consultation is needed first to assess viability before any testing begins. We are upfront about the likelihood of success for your specific sample.

Is forensic DNA testing confidential?

Yes. Forensic testing is handled discreetly and confidentially from start to finish. Your samples and results are shared only with authorized individuals.

Can forensic DNA test results be used in court?

It depends on how the sample was collected and the details of your case. Court use generally requires documented chain of custody, which is not always possible with a discreet personal item. Call us to discuss your situation and what your case may require.

How long does forensic DNA testing take?

Forensic testing takes longer than a standard cheek swab because recovering DNA from non-standard samples requires extra laboratory work. Timeframes depend on the sample type and condition. We give you a realistic timeline during your consultation once we know what you are submitting.
