GeneMatch Laboratory
GeneMatch brings you the best in DNA paternity testing through its well-equipped DNA laboratory. When samples reach our laboratory, they are tested using a series of precision equipment that ensures efficient and accurate testing.
Biomek® Advanced Robotics
Our Biomek systems enable us to process hundreds of samples daily. Our DNA technologists use this system to efficiently purify DNA samples and prepare them for the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).
PCR Thermal Cyclers
Thermal cyclers are crucial to the DNA testing process. They facilitate the Polymerase Chain Reaction, which makes billions of copies of the DNA molecules being tested. During subsequent analysis, this enables our scientists to detect which genetic markers are present in the child, alleged father, and mother.
ABI Prism® 3100
The ABI Prism genetic analyzer creates the raw data on which paternity calculations are based. It takes the products from PCR and analyzes the sizes of the alleles found in the DNA samples of the child, alleged father, and mother.
DNAView® Software
Our PhDs perform statistical calculations of the paternity data on this software, which has been specially designed for paternity calculations. It draws on our large population database to help calculate the probability of paternity that is reported on the paternity test results.
Our well-equipped laboratory follows strict testing standards that are implemented by our staff of nationally recognized scientists. We have full capability for extended testing in unusual cases. You can be assured of having completely reliable paternity results with GeneMatch. Order your test now using our online form or by calling 1-800-275-4163. |
