Quality Missing Parent DNA Testing – Family Reconstruction DNA Test
When the alleged father is absent, unwilling, or otherwise unavailable to test, we can perform missing parent DNA testing. This test is also referred to as a family genetic reconstruction test. A family genetic reconstruction DNA test is an indirect way to confirm paternity or other biological relationships when that parent is not available for a DNA test.

Testing performed by a fully accredited laboratory in the United States.
Trusted by families nationwide for over two decades.
Higher marker count for greater accuracy and confidence.
Quick turnaround with complete confidentiality.
The family reconstruction DNA test is done with a target, or child, and 2 paternal relatives such as alleged aunts, uncles, or grandparents (or sisters, brothers, or parents of the father.)
It is also helpful to include the child’s mother in the test if possible. This will ensure we have the most complete picture of the family genetics, and will produce the most conclusive result. When a known mother takes part in the missing parent DNA testing, we compare the mother and child, and then eliminate the maternal DNA from the child’s profile. This allows us to focus only on the paternal DNA in question. As a result, with this maternal DNA eliminated, the test outcome is as definitive as it can get.
In the genetic reconstruction test, or missing parent DNA testing, the paternal relatives’ DNA is compared against the child to produce a combined related index. Please note that other children of the alleged father are not compatible for this type of testing. If you want to test with the alleged father’s other children, then please purchase a siblingship DNA test instead. Additionally, a Y-STR male lineage test if all participants are male. On the other hand, if a relationship is trying to be established on the mother’s side, an mtDNA female lineage test will offer a conclusive answer regardless of gender.

“In my opinion I am very satisfied. I have an adult daughter that’s 24 years old now that I did not know I had. The results came in very quickly, took a couple of days, and I am very pleased with this product. If I need it again, this is what I’ll get. I will definitely recommend this to anybody that needs to do a DNA test.”
