Our Laboratory is located on the campus of  New Mexico State University, located in Las Cruces, New Mexico.   We perform DNA human identity tests using the Most advanced technology and discriminating tests available.  We are accredited by the American Association of Blood Banks (A.A.B.B.) as a Parentage Testing Laboratory, and as such, all accredited parentage tests are performed according to A.A.B.B. standards. All tests are supervised and results reviewed by Ph. D. scientists on our staff. We use the latest DNA-based technology with state-of-the-art robotic equipment. While many other labs use only 5 or 9 genetic markers, we analyze 16 genetic markers, which is sometimes referred to as a “premium test.” This is the Most powerful DNA test done in the DNA testing industry, exceeding the standards used by the FBI for human identification requiring that only 13 genetic markers be analyzed. Every Order receives overnight FedEx shipping, and a 3-5 day turn-around time for our DNA Tests.

If A Non Accredited Lab's Results Can Not Be Trusted In Court, SHOULD YOU TRUST IT??

Why Should The Lab You Choose Be A.A.B.B. Accredited?

Some laboratories advertise themselves as “accredited” by the American Association of Blood Banks (A.A.B.B.) while others do not. Accredited laboratories have passed a rigorous review and inspection of their testing processes and laboratory to insure that tests are being done accurately and thoroughly. Accredited laboratories also participate in proficiency tests and are re-inspected annually. Purchasing a paternity test through an unaccredited laboratory is at best a gamble; it may be cheaper, but should you sacrifice quality for such an important test?

To be an “accredited paternity test” the A.A.B.B. requires that the DNA sample collection be witnessed by a neutral third party with no interest in the outcome of the test. Furthermore, photographic proof of identity is required to be submitted with the test to verify the identity of the persons submitting the samples.

By definition, home (or “self-collected”) paternity tests are not accredited unless they meet the above requirements. Many families opt for a home test kit because it is more affordable and they wish to be discreet. If any laboratory advertises an “accredited home test” without these requirements they are lying and violating A.A.B.B. standards.  Simply stated in order for a paternity test to be accredited, it must be a legally binding test meeting the "chain of custody".

At the our Genetic Testing Laboratory, our Informational Home Test does not require proof of identity and is therefore not an A.A.B.B. accredited test. The Legal Test, however, is an accredited test and comes with full instructions on the duties of the witness and what qualifies as proof of identity.  By identifying the tested parties and following the instructions

You may rest assured that the only difference between non-accredited home paternity tests and accredited legal paternity tests is the manner in which the persons being tested are identified. For a test to be admissible in court, proof must be provided of the identification of the persons being tested ("Chain Of Custody").  Other than this consideration, the DNA tests are absolutely identical and follow all A.A.B.B. standards regardless of accreditation. This is why it's so important that you choose a laboratory that is accredited by the A.A.B.B., and is fully accredited.

Our Accuracy Guarantee

In alMost all paternity cases, if the alleged father is the true father, all 15 genetic markers will match those of the child (the 16th genetic marker is used to confirm the sex of the person). This is referred to as “no exclusions.” *We guarantee that in such cases (testing the mother, child, and alleged father), our tests will yield Probabilities of Paternity of more than 99.999%. This is a 1000 times more than the 99% required by the AABB (American Association of Blood Banks). Such extremely high probabilities mean that you can have the peace of mind that the tested father is the true father. If we fail to exceed Probabilities of Paternity of 99.999% in cases of no exclusions, we will refund the cost of the test. Another way to interpret a minimum Probability of Paternity of 99.999% is that the chance of a wrong conclusion (i.e., that the biological father is not the man tested) is at worst 1 in 100,000. Typically in our tests, these odds are 1 in millions, or even higher.

It is possible for the tested father to be the true father and still have one or even two exclusions (mismatched genetic markers) because of mutations in the father’s DNA. In Most cases of one exclusion, the Probability of Paternity will still be very high (greater than 99.9%), although this cannot be guaranteed. Cases of two exclusions may be ambiguous and require further testing of additional genetic markers. Cases of three or more exclusions result in the conclusion that the tested father is “excluded” as being the father of the child. This results in a probability of exclusion of 100%.

If a test includes only one parent and the child, we cannot guarantee a minimal probability of parenthood. In Most cases, however, these probabilities are greater than 99.99%.

*This guarantee assumes that the persons tested are each members of one of the following races: Asian-American, African-American, Caucasian-American, or Hispanic-American. This is because the probabilities of paternity depend on the frequencies of different genetic markers in databases based on these races. We can still perform paternity tests with family members from other races, but calculations become more conservative and may possibly result in probabilities of paternity of less than 99.999%, although this is unlikely if all 15 genetic markers in the father match.
