DNA Testing

DNA testing industry leader since 1987, we provide accurate, convenient, affordable, confidential DNA testing and the highest level of service. Genelex offers a range of genetic testing services including:
Paternity Testing One of a handful of DNA paternity testing laboratories in the world with dual clinical laboratory and parentage testing accreditation, Genelex provides the broadest range of paternity DNA tests available anywhere including home DNA tests, prenatal paternity testing, immigration DNA testing, kinship analysis, and grandpaternity testing. Our work has been used to help resolve cases involving major crimes, child support and custody, immigration, and inheritance.
Pharmacogenetic Testing.Genelex is first in the world to offer direct-to-consumer DNA prescription drug reaction profiles that provide clinically relevant drug-drug and drug-gene interaction information that can help physicians reduce the incidence of adverse drug reactions, a serious medical problem. Currently offered tests are of the most important of the drug processing enzymes. More than half of patients have at least one defect in these systems which process almost one-half of the most commonly prescribed medicines. Nutritional Genetic Testing Linking individual genetic variation to principles of good nutrition, we enable individuals to obtain the maximum value from decades of research on the links between diet, well-being and individual scope for action. Our Nutritional Genetic Panel examines seven genes that play major roles in the body's detoxification capacity, antioxidant capacity, alcohol metabolism, and tissue repair. We combine this genetic information with information from a lifestyle questionnaire to provide personalized dietary recommendations that help keep the body working at an optimum level.
Ancestry DNA Testing - Our Common Male Ancestor Test and Common Female Ancestor Test include a summary of what scientists have learned about the geographical origin and age of your maternal and paternal lines based on your DNA test results. Our Ethnicity DNA Test provides a global overview of your genetic makeup telling you what percentage of your DNA is shared with Africans, Europeans, Asians and Native Americans. Our Native American verification testing can confirm if you are of Native American descent.
Forensics - Genelex was founded in 1987 for the express purpose of performing forensic DNA analysis services to the justice system. Since that time we have completed hundreds of cases and currently perform DNA analysis by the most advanced and widely used STR methods. Our forensic testing services included criminal paternity testing, body identification, DNA Databanking, DNA Fingerprinting, and no-suspect casework.
