Grandparent DNA Test
The Grandparent DNA Test is a reliable way to determine whether an individual is the biological grandparent of a child when a parent is unavailable for testing. This test analyzes shared genetic markers between the grandparent and grandchild to establish the probability of a biological relationship with a high degree of accuracy.
This option uses standard cheek swab collection, making it simple, non-invasive, and ideal for at-home DNA testing situations where discretion is important but forensic samples are not required.
When Should You Use a Grandparent DNA Test?
This test is commonly used when:
A biological parent is unavailable or unable to participate
A grandparent is being tested to help establish a family relationship
A simple, non-invasive home DNA test is preferred
Informational results are sufficient for personal knowledge
Who Can Be Tested
One grandparent and one grandchild
Testing additional grandparents may increase accuracy and reduce the likelihood of inconclusive results
Accurate Grandparent DNA Analysis
DNA samples are analyzed at an accredited laboratory using advanced genetic comparison techniques. The test examines multiple genetic markers to calculate the statistical probability of a grandparent-grandchild relationship, helping determine whether the tested individuals are biologically related.
Turnaround Time
Results are typically available within 2-3 business days after the laboratory receives all samples.
Simple and Confidential Testing
Sample collection is quick and painless using cheek swabs. All testing kits are shipped in plain, unmarked packaging, and results are delivered securely to protect your privacy.
