Maternity Testing
Maternity DNA Testing is very similar to Paternity DNA Testing. The maternity test compares the alleged mother’s DNA pattern to that of the child to verify how likely it is that the child inherited their DNA from the alleged mother.
Maternity testing can be used to verify biological relationships in any of the following situations:
- An adopted child and an alleged biological mother are reunited after years of separation
- A family member or hospital staff fear that a baby switch has mistakenly taken pace in a hospital nursery
- A mother who conceived her child through in vitro fertilization would like to confirm the correct embryo was implanted

How Maternity Testing Works
Order Maternity Testing
We can schedule an appointment for the individuals testing to obtain the necessary collection at one of our 1000+ testing centers.
Or you may choose to perform the collections at your convenience with an Maternity Home Testing kit.
Collect Samples
Performing a DNA collection is pain-free and simple. Four, Non-Invasive buccal swabs are utilized to easily collect each individuals DNA by lightly brushing each swab against the cheeks on the inside of the mouth. At minimal, each collection with every swab is performed for 10 to 15 seconds.
Get DNA Results
Avuncular test results are typically completed within 3 to 5 business days after the Testing laboratory has received all the necessary collections of the participating individuals.
Results are then provided over the phone and email. Mailed copies can be sent upon request.
