Who should participate?

The participants in the Avuncular DNA test are: the nephew and his presumed uncle. If possible, the participation of the nephew's biological mother is always recommended, in order to obtain the best and most accurate results.

Avuncular test between uncles and nephews

Avuncular tests determine in this way, if there is a biological relationship between uncles and nephews. Therefore, in this way it is possible to indirectly determine paternity. This type of test is done when the alleged father is deceased or is not available for testing for various reasons.

The procedure for an Avuncular DNA test varies depending on the intended use of the study result.
It can be classified among the following as:

- Informative

- Legal

In the case of merely informative use

It can be done even without the consent of any of the parties involved.

You can opt for the 100% anonymous DNA test service in which you will not be asked for any type of identity record. Remember that if you need confidentiality in the test, we have the obligation to carry out the procedure under strict discretion, fully respecting the decision of the people who will carry out the test.

Both genetic samples from the alleged uncle and nephew are required. They can be taken at our center, in the comfort of your home (with our DNA Kit) or by sending the samples by mail (buying the elements to build the genetic home kit yourself).

For legal use or administrative procedures:

Obtaining the result of this study can be used as evidence in legal instances, or as valid legal documentation as such is the case of administrative procedures.

The sampling is carried out in our center under the so-called "Chain of Custody" request, with the presence of the parties involved.

Consider the following points:

- If the nephew or niece is a minor (under 18 years of age), they must attend with their biological mother and the presumed uncle. Participants must prove identity with their identity document and present the birth certificate of the minor(s).
- If the nephew or niece is the same age or older (+18 years) they must attend with their presumed uncle and both must present themselves only with their identity verification documents.

In this way, and complying with these simple requirements the result, this result of the test will be valid to present before any administrative body or in front of the court of justice.

The delay time we have for the delivery of the results is approximately 10 business days. Although other laboratories offer the results in 5 days, we have the results in that number of days, because we must comply with the certifications of highly qualified standards required, which are of control and quality.

What is the genetic sample that the laboratory needs to obtain the results?

A buccal swab sample is used as it is very easy to obtain.
