DNA Paternity Testing Facts

• DNA sample collection is quick and painless. You can collect your own DNA samples at a time and place you choose using the free Beta Self-Collection™ Kit. It contains buccal swabs, which look like long cotton swabs, to collect samples by simply rubbing it against your inner cheek.

• Testing at least 16 markers ensures accurate, conclusive results. A high-quality laboratory should give you at least a 99.99% probability of paternity guarantee for inclusions. Our extensive testing battery enables us to give you en even higher accuracy guarantee—99.9999% if the mother participates in the testing.

• Beta Paternity owns and operates its own laboratory. You can tell which online company is a real paternity testing laboratory by looking at the address. Many companies use P.O. Boxes or Mail Boxes Etc.® and other similar mail forwarding companies as their address. Don’t entrust your samples to just any online company—choose one that has a real laboratory to ensure your samples go straight to a quality lab.

• Only legal paternity testing is accredited by the AABB. Many online companies will try to impress you with various logos and accreditation symbols. These accreditation bodies actually only inspect the chain of custody testing process. Home paternity testing is not overseen by any accreditation body; their false claims make you wonder if these companies are being straightforward with you about their services in the first place. Beta Paternity’ home paternity test uses stringent measures that exceed the standards of accreditation bodies. More clients trust Beta Paternity for its many advantages.

• Some laboratories may give false exclusion results due to sample mix-ups, contamination, or simply a less comprehensive testing battery. At Beta Paternity, two independent teams perform two DNA tests on all samples. We then compare the results at the end to ensure that they match and that we are giving you the most accurate results.

• Genetic mutations require careful analysis by experienced DNA scientists. Only Beta Paternity has the highly experienced staff who can correctly interpret unexpected results due to mutations or unusual family situations. They’ve tested thousands of cases each year and have the breadth and depth of experience to identify and resolve unusual cases.
