Grandparent DNA Testing Explained

The DNA Worldwide Grandparent DNA Test is designed to establish with absolute accuracy the biological relationship between an individual and an alleged grandparent.

Our simple DNA collection kit is fast and easy. The individuals collect DNA and send it to our lab. In less than 5-10 days you receive your results in a simple format.

Two types of Grandparent Testing

Single Grandparent DNA Analysis: This DNA test includes ONE grandparent, 1 grandchild, and parent (optional, but strongly suggested). The conclusive range for DNA results are either greater than 90% inclusion or less than 10% exclusion probabilities.

Duo Grandparent DNA Analysis: This DNA test includes BOTH grandparents, 1 child, and parent optional, but strongly suggested. For the most accurate results in a grandparent analysis it is best to include both the alleged grandparents and the child. When both alleged grandparents are included the DNA results can indicate greater than 99.99% (for inclusions) or 100% (for exclusions) probability of the Grandparent relationship.

The Aunt/Uncle DNA Test

  • Conclusive Range: <10% exclusion or >90% inclusion.
  • Turnaround Time: 5-10 Business Days
  • Participants: One alleged aunt or uncle, one niece or nephew.
  • Other Details: The probabilities can be increased greatly if other known relatives, such as a parent of the niece or nephew, are available for testing. Results may vary between 100% exclusion to 99.99% positive proof of relationship.

Procedure: Samples are collected from one or both grandparents and the grandchild at home or at a collection centre (a known parent is optional, but strongly suggested). The samples are obtained using a cheek swab. After samples are sent to the laboratory, results will be available within 5-10 Business Days.
