DNA is the genetic information stored in the cells of our body and is a combination of the DNA of both of our biological parents. Therefore, when situations or circumstances arise in life that lead to the need to verify one's biological relationship with another person or persons, a DNA kinship test comes into play, which can be used to determine paternity, confirm maternity, consanguinity, as well as to determine the zygosity of twins or the origin of family lines.
Descent tests analyse DNA with so-called STR markers, which can confirm or exclude the relationship of the tested persons with certainty. We recommend that you approach kinship testing responsibly and after considering all the possible consequences that the results of such an analysis may have for the family.
Sample collection is completely painless and takes no more than 5 minutes. It can be obtained by oral swab or blood collection. You can also swab your oral cavity in the comfort of your own home, then just send it to us by post. For blood collection, it is necessary for all people tested to come to our outpatient clinic. All tests can be performed anonymously if required.

The PapaGen® test is a genetic analysis performed to determine paternity (the biological relationship between a man and a child). It is the only way to confirm or exclude paternity with certainty. The test can also be used to check the possibility of organ donation or the risk of hereditary disease.
The MamaGen® test is a genetic analysis carried out to confirm maternity, i.e. whether a woman is the biological mother of a child or, conversely, whether a person is the child of his or her mother. The test can also be used to check the possibility of organ donation or the risk of hereditary disease.
The Familia test is a genetic analysis performed to confirm a biological relationship. This test can also be used to confirm or exclude paternity without the direct involvement of the presumed father. In this way, paternity can be confirmed or ruled out by analysing the DNA of the father's parents, i.e. the child's grandparents.
DNA analysis which makes it possible to clearly determine whether twins are identical (monozygotic) or non-identical (dizygotic). Twins of different sex are very likely to be dizygotic.
After ordering the test, you will receive an email with detailed information. A DNA sample is most often obtained through an oral swab or blood sample. You can perform the oral swab yourself in the comfort of your own home using a collection kit which will be sent to you by mail together with instructions and other documents. You can have your blood drawn at your local physician's office or at our outpatient clinic. The result of the analysis will be sent to you by e-mail or by post as agreed. In the case of a positive result, we recommend an appointment for a genetic consultation.
