Quality Legal Twin DNA Testing

Twin DNA testing determines whether twins are fraternal twins or identical twins. A Legal twin zygosity DNA test may be used for legal court cases or in some cases it can be used to help solve any health problems the twins may encounter later down the road in life. A perfect example, if one of the twins needs an organ or tissue transplant, the identical twin is very often the most perfect match. It is important to note that the Twin Zygosity test does not confirm sibship for participants who are not identical twins.

About Twin DNA Testing

Identical twins are formed from one fertilized egg. In early development, this fertilized egg, called a zygote, which usually develops into one individual child, splits to form two identical embryos. Because the twins both come from the same one egg and the same one sperm, they have the same DNA.

Fraternal twins, however, develop from two different eggs fertilized by two individual sperm cells. Fraternal twins do not have the exact same DNA, although they share some of the DNA, which they inherit from both parents. In some rare cases, fraternal twins may actually have different fathers.

Sometimes, before birth the doctor may be able to tell whether the conceived twins are identical or fraternal through an ultrasound examination or determine this when the twins are born by doing an examination of the placenta.

These methods are not 100% accurate, however. Additionally, medical records regarding zygosity get lost, or doubts arise due to physical characteristics. Scientists recommend twin DNA testing to determine the zygosity of twins if the question lingers. In such cases, only by performing a twin DNA test will you be able to reveal the truth regarding zygosity. A twin zygosity DNA test compares the twins’ DNA profiles to see whether they match—an exact match proves that the twins are identical while anything other than an exact match indicates the twins are fraternal.

The Legal Twin Zygosity DNA Testing Process

The legal twin DNA testing process is quite simple. When you place your order, you may choose to use our professional collection service (collection at one of our clinic locations) or have a test collection kit shipped free to your doctor's office.

If you plan to use your own doctor for the collection, simply provide the doctor's office address in your order. We ship a legal DNA collection kit directly to them. We also include a preaddressed, postage-paid return mailer in the collection kit for convenience. Before you order, it is important to check with your doctor to make sure they agree to provide this service.

Or if you prefer, opt for our professional collection option for a full service Twin Zygosity test. A consultant will schedule your appointment for you, at your convenience. We have over 4,000 clinic locations across the country to serve your collection needs.

After the sample collection, the swabs and chain of custody documents go directly to the lab. When received, we email you a confirmation email to let you know testing is underway. If you order email test result delivery, we email a PDF document of your notarized test result as soon as testing is complete. A hard copy is mailed to the billing address on your order.  We do not ship anything to you other than the result for our legal reconstruction tests.

What Makes A Twin Zygosity Test Legal?

The AABB guidelines stipulate that a legal twin DNA test must have a valid chain of custody to be admissible in court or accepted for use in any legal matter. Simply put, chain of custody refers to the DNA collection in the presence of a medical professional and the legal identification and consent of the test participants. In any legal DNA testing case, a neutral medical professional who is unbiased as to the outcome of the test must perform the collection.

Furthermore, a legally binding twin zygo test must be collected by a medical or in some cases a legal professional. With PaternityUSA.com, you can use your doctor for the sample collection or opt for professional collection service at one of more than 4,000 network clinic locations. Any DNA collection performed by an associate, friend or family member can easily be discredited and deemed inadmissible. This would result in you having to perform another test that does adhere to the rules. Do not risk an improper DNA collection being the cause of your test results being rejected as evidence in your paternity case.

Why We Stand Above The Others

Smaller companies advertise cheap legal DNA testing, and allow participants to choose anyone as their own collector. Surprisingly, they even mail the collection kit right to the client. Please beware - this practice does not follow chain of custody requirements. Their cheap DNA zygosity test may end up being very costly to your family in the long run.

It's a direct violation of legal twin DNA test requirements for anyone associated with the test to be in the possession of the collection kit. This includes a test participant, any family members or friends. When someone with an interest in the test result has access to collection supplies, there could easily be a suspicion of tampering. For this reason, we never ship a legal DNA collection kit to anyone other than a medical professional.

Secondly, a legally binding zygosity test must be collected by a medical professional. With PaternityUSA.com, you can use your doctor for the DNA collection, or opt for professional collection service at one of over 4,000 clinic locations.  Again, having someone who is known to the test participant act as a collector, or "witness" the DNA collection, does not meet AABB standards. A collection by an associate, friend or family member can easily be discredited; causing you to have to pay for another test.

A legal test conducted outside of the chain of custody is easily contested and disputed in court; and more importantly will not stand up as evidence.

In contrast, we don't bend guidelines or take any risk of injuring your case. Following ecery legal testing requirement helps to ensure your result stands up in any legal matter facing your family. We understand the need for DNA testing is usually accompanied by an emotionally taxing burden. As such, we handle every case with care and confidentiality.

DNA Collection

The collection process is very simple. DNA is collected through a cheek swab, also known as a buccal swab, which is painlessly rubbed against the inside of the cheek. Our DNA zygosity tests are performed twice. For this reason we collect 2-4 swabs per person. The test participants should refrain from drinking coffee or tea or smoking for 1-2 hours before the DNA collection.

Other relationship testing that you may want to consider includes sibling DNA testing, grandparent or avuncular DNA testing, or a family reconstruction DNA test.
