Our experienced collection specialists provide a private, respectful, and confidential collection experience while partnering with accredited laboratories for DNA analysis. Every specimen is collected according to laboratory protocols to ensure accuracy and reliability.
What Is Prenatal Paternity DNA Testing?
Prenatal Paternity DNA Testing, also known as Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity (NIPP) testing, compares DNA from the expectant mother, the alleged father, and fetal DNA naturally present in the mother's bloodstream to determine biological paternity.
Unlike invasive prenatal procedures, NIPP testing requires only a blood specimen from the expectant mother and a painless cheek swab from the alleged father. No procedures are performed inside the uterus, making this a safe, non-invasive option for qualifying pregnancies.
