User questions & answers

Question:	Hello i bought this kit about 3 months ago and i found it a few days ago after i lost it, do they expire ? i tried logging in says” account inactive
Answer:	Hi! No, the kit doesn't expire. Have you submitted the samples yet? Until your results are ready, you'll get the "account inactive" message when trying to log in. To check on the status of your test, call us directly at 1-800-329-3758 (M-F, 8:30 am to 5:30 pm Eastern).
Question:	Can you swab mother and father for results
Answer:	For a paternity test, there needs to be at least one child and one possible father. The mother can also participate to help strengthen results, but her DNA is not usually required.
Question:	Do you just need the child and fathers dna? Not the mothers
Answer:	Yes. Although the mother's DNA can help strengthen results under certain circumstances, it is usually not required. Should it turn out to be needed, the lab will suspend testing and ask for the mother's samples. We'll then include her in the test at no extra charge.
Question:	My tracking hasn’t said my kit has reached the testing facility after 2 weeks. Should I call the facility
Answer:	My kit reached the facility in 3 days but didn't get to a tech for 2 weeks. I would call the facility to see if it got lost.

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is DNA paternity testing?

• DNA testing is the most accurate method available for determining paternity. Its power lies in the ability to trace the pattern of inheritance for separate regions of the genetic material (chromosomes). From this information a probability of paternity can be calculated. This number reaches 99.99999% in most cases. The percentage of random men of the same race that can be excluded as the biological father is also computed for every case.

Does the mother have to be tested as well?

• No, although results cannot be as conclusive. Ideally, the mother, child, and alleged father should be tested. A child receives half of their DNA from their mother, and the other half from their father. Because the DNA half that the child receives from the mother will match the mother's DNA exactly, the remaining unmatched DNA matches the biological father.

Can I test more than one child or alleged parent?

• Yes, for an additional charge.

Product description

Alpha Heelix understands the emotional importance of providing the most accurate, fastest and highly confidential paternity DNA testing service to determine whether two individuals are biologically parent and child.

One test kit allows one paternity test to be carried out, which includes one child and one alleged father. Alternatively, one maternity test could also be carried out per test kit for one child and one alleged mother.

Why us?

●Our contracted laboratory follows strict testing procedures and utilizes state of the art instruments to ensure accurate and credible test results delivery. Laboratory is US-based, accredited by AABB, A2LA, ISO17025:2005 and Ministry of Justice.

●Test kit includes all lab fees and no hidden costs. Our test compares up to 22 STR loci plus the gender identification marker amelogenin to achieve up to 99.999% results accuracy.

●New generation, FDA compliant sterilized nylon flocked swabs are supplied instead of conventional cotton swabs. Flocked swabs absorb more DNA sample due to capillary effect during sample collection and elute more readily in the lab than cotton swabs. Hence reduces the need for retest due to insufficient DNA sample detection.

●For additional peace of mind, we supply 2 swabs per individual for sample collection. In the event that the first swab fails to elute sufficient DNA sample for analysis, we will retest the second swab at no extra cost.

●UPS Next Day Air for US residents or UPS Worldwide Express for Australian residents to return sample to lab in US.

●Test report will only be sent to the registered email address in 2 business days after receipt of DNA sample by the lab, by end of the day.

●For better understanding of the instructions, we have provided a video demonstration on how to use the test kit when you register online.

●We thrive to ensure you a seamless experience and will always aim to resolve any questions you have quickly.

• ALL LAB FEES INCLUDED FOR 1 PARENT + 1 CHILD – Our lab is US-based, AABB, ISO 17025, A2LA accredited

• VIDEO DEMONSTRATION – Online short video instruction is provided during test kit registration

• MONEY BACK GUARANTEE FOR ACCURACY – 22 STR loci are compared for up to 99.999% accuracy

User questions & answers

Question:	How can the test be carried out if I live in the same state but a different city
Answer:	I would suggest for the child to order the test kit, once DNA is collected, mail everything inclusive of the DNA collected to the alleged father (postage fee and envelope at child’s own expense), then the alleged father collects his DNA and drop everything at UPS drop box.
Question:	What if the alleged father lives out-of-state from where I live
Answer:	When you do an at-home like Alpha Heelix at-home test, the results are not court-admissible; this is because the court cannot verify that all participants were who they said they were at the time of testing. For results to be court-admissible, participants’ IDs are checked and sample collection and mailing are supervised by a third-party witness.
Question:	Can this be used in court
Answer:	No, sorry. The New York State Department of Health only allows paternity collection for DNA testing to be performed by an approved DNA collector. This means that at-home collection where participants are responsible for self-swabbing their own cheeks is not an option.
Question:	Can this be used in NY
Answer:	No, it just can work for most of OBDII cars since 1996.

Product description

Home paternity tests allow you to collect the samples for analysis at home. This is typically done through the use of a swab that is rubbed along the inside of the mouth in the cheek area. A sample must be taken from the potential father and the child. If you purchase a kit that tests the mother's DNA, there will be a third swab provided for her. Once the test is completed, it must be mailed to a laboratory facility for analysis. The results are then typically emailed within a few days of when the samples are received by the laboratory. A DNA paternity testing kit from Choice DNA will allow you to perform the test at home and get the results in a timely manner.

Who needs to be tested?

One child and one alleged father.

Turnaround Time: 2-4 business days from receipt of all samples.

Our DNA Kits include everything needed to complete a painless mouth swab on both the alleged father and child. We guarantee 99.99% accuracy if the person tested is the father. All our DNA Paternity tests are analyzed twice and released within 2-4 working days from receiving your samples. This test eliminates ALL doubts quickly and accurately. LabCorp will put forth every effort to provide answers and closure to these difficult questions at the highest percentage: 99.99%.

To obtain your results:

1. Take a cheek-swab sample from each of the people being tested.

2. Send the swabs back to the lab for testing with FREE overnight return shipping. It's as easy as that, so order today!

Chain-of-Custody Requirements

Although it is possible to determine paternity without the mother, there are unique situations in which the laboratory may require the mother’s sample to be collected. These situations include (but are not limited to) cases with alleged fathers who share a close biological relationship.
