Technology Expertise
Our lab is filled with the best and brightest scientists who have the expertise to handle any genetic test—even those with unexpected results that arise from genetic mutations or unusual biological relationships. Equipped with the latest equipment in DNA relationship testing, our team strives to be a lab you can trust with the most accurate results.
Microsatellite Analysis
We perform over 1 million STR genotyping tests annually using capillary electrophoresis platforms: ABI 3730 and 3130.
Automated Precision
Accurately processing thousands of DNA samples daily requires the use of automated precision instrumentation. Our laboratory uses Biomek® FXp and Biomek® 4000 systems to purify and prepare the samples before the actual DNA test.
Subsequent Analysis
We’ve invested in technology that uses the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) process that revolutionized DNA testing. We have further refined and customized our methods to provide seamless and faster sample processing, using the ProFlex™ 96-well PCR System.
Capillary Electrophoresis
Our laboratory is equipped with ABI Prism® genetic analyzers to process the large volume of cases we receive every day. These instruments perform one of the most essential steps in DNA testing: generating data through capillary electrophoresis.
