Sibling DNA Testing in Edinburgh (Peace of mind)
AlphaBiolabs Sibling DNA testing uses DNA technology to establish whether or not a brother and a sister have the same father or the same father and mother.
AlphaBiolabs Sibling DNA testing has an accuracy rate of 100%. We ask for the inclusion of the mother’s DNA samples in this testing procedure as this usually increases the accuracy rate. We use statistical analysis to evaluate the amount of DNA shared between the individuals tested to deduce a biological relationship.

Aunt DNA testing (also known as Avuncular tests) is often needed when the alleged father or mother is deceased or unwilling to participate in the testing process and the alleged aunt of the child would like to establish their biological relationship to the child.

Grandparent DNA tests can be used to establish a biological relationship between an individual and one or more of their alleged grandparents.
