"Bargain shoppers will cringe but genetic testing is not an area where I’d recommend going cheap. There is a reason certain paternity testing companies offer testing for $99; perhaps their labs are not CLIA certified or they do not offer much information beyond the most basic data."

Genelex is CLIA, AABB, and New York State Department of Health accredited for legally admissible relationship testing and has over 20 years of paternity testing experience.
"Many companies claim to offer paternity testing that is more than 99 percent accurate. Test quality depends on the skill of the laboratory personnel performing the test, how closely they follow proper procedures, the accuracy of the methodology, and how the results are interpreted. Since test quality can vary among laboratories and there are no mandatory standards, consumers should verify a company’s policies and accreditations before purchasing a test."

Something Doesn't Add Up
Genelex has been doing paternity testing since 1987, and we know what it costs to run a quality test. Here are just a few of the main costs for a standard paternity test including a mother, father, and child - not including controls, additional necessary chemicals, equipment, postage, collection supplies, or qualified labor. Look for yourself, costs of the lab chemicals alone are posted on the internet and we've provided a link - you will have to click USA.
Cost without postage, supplies, labor, quality controls, other chemicals, repeat testing for exclusion verification, or equipment - $88.20
At Genelex, we don't cut cost at the expense of quality because we know we know that paternity testing results last a lifetime and profoundly affect our client lives.
Only 48% of paternity testing labs have AABB accreditation. If you obtain paternity testing from a paternity lab without this accreditation; the results may not be reliable or acceptable for legal purposes. An unaccredited lab could literally be flipping a coin to determine paternity; no outside agency has confirmed that they are adhering to quality standards.
The American Association of Blood Banks (AABB) is the accrediting agency for relationship testing. AABB accreditation requires an intensive review and inspection of laboratory policies and procedures and establishes that the level of technical and administrative performances within the laboratory meets or exceeds the standards set by the AABB.
Additionally, the AABB has strict guidelines about confidentiality so you can be assured that your personal information will be secure.
Genelex has been AABB accredited for legally admissible DNA parentage testing since 1992. All accredited labs are listed on the AABB web site.
If a lab is not listed, they are not accredited. Buyer Beware.
A paternity test lasts a lifetime and can profoundly affect your life. That is why it is critical to work with a lab that you know you can rely on both now and in the future.
Paternity reports are vital records akin to birth certificates. Genelex will still be around to provide additional copies if you need them, it is debatable whether an internet startup will be.
With over 20 years of experience, Genelex DNA testing has a history of holding up under intense legal scrutiny including Supreme Court review.
Additionally, we are one of the few DNA labs with the expertise to determine relationships with distant relatives or hard to analyze samples such as licked envelopes or bones.
