Pricing and<\/span><\/span><\/span> Features<\/h2>\n

Paternity Depot offers their paternity testing at a very affordable price: $59 per kit. Do take note though, the shipping fee is not yet included in this price, so you would have to shoulder an additional $8 for standard shipping, or $20 for FedEx next day express shipping. They are able to offer the service at such a steal price since they are an operational laboratory themselves. Other brands act as a middle man between the laboratory and the participants, which means you are paying for both them and the laboratory’s work.<\/p>\n

They accept all major credit cards like Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. You can also make use of PayPal to place an order.<\/p>\n

The Process<\/h3>\n

The package includes two sets of sterile swabs for the collection of specimen, as with the collection envelope where you will store the used swabs upon returning them to the lab. Don’t forget to swab both cheeks with the cotton tips both for the child and alleged father, so they can have sufficient samples to test on.<\/p>\n

In cases where obtaining a buccal swab is not possible, Paternity Depot accepts other forms of DNA samples. For primary sources, you can submit blood, toothbrush, dental floss, toothpick, nail clippings, semen, and used tissue or handkerchief. For secondary sources, urine, razors, cigarette butts, licked envelopes, hair with attached follicles, and intimate clothing are perfectly acceptable samples.<\/p>\n

If the child and alleged father resides in different locations, Paternity Depot can supply their testing kits to each participant – just indicate the second address on the order form and they\u00a0will send a split kit.<\/p>\n

Accuracy<\/h3>\n

How can Paternity Depot determine and confirm the biological relation between a father and child? If you remember from science class, each person carries 23 chromosomes, inheriting certain pairs from both parents. The test is done by generating reactions from short tandem repeats simultaneously, showing matching pairs of genes. In short, a match in the DNA profile confirms biological relationship, at a 99.99% accuracy for inclusion and 100% for exclusion.<\/p>\n

Results<\/h3>\n

Results are usually available in 3 to 5 days, but can be delayed up to 7 days in some cases. You can choose to receive your results via snail mail, phone call, email, or fax. Other companies\u00a0send customers a\u00a0secure link sent\u00a0via email, wherein, upon clicking the link,\u00a0you would\u00a0need to log in to your account in order to view the results. Paternity Depot, on the other hand, simply emails you\u00a0the actual results, so you may want to check the security settings of your email to ensure that nobody else can access them.<\/p>\n

Paternity Depot’s laboratories, located in New York and Toronto, are fully accredited by the international standard ISO\/IEC 17025. For more than ten years, they have been a reliable source of paternity DNA testing service, with over 300,000 successful tests delivered.

Paternity Depot Review 2020 – Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n
