Curiosity DNA Tests

Maternity Tests You Can Do At Home

A Curiosity DNA test for maternity will determine whether the person being tested is the biological mother of the child or children.

What is a Maternity Test?

A standard maternity test is used to verify a mother-child relationship. The test can be used in various scenarios including:

  • Confirmation of the embryo used in assisted reproduction, such as IVF procedures, egg donation, or surrogacy
  • The possibility of a child being switched at the time of birth
  • A child or children separated from a biological parent and placed in foster care or adopted.

Discovering the maternity of a child is an emotional matter, and our team will do everything in our power to make the process as seamless and quick as possible. We have a supportive team of customer service representatives available to answer your questions.

Please be advised that for curiosity maternity tests the names of the donors WILL NOT be listed on the report as there is no verification of identity.

Complex Maternity Test Cases

Do you have multiple children to test for maternity?
Separate samples must be obtained for each child and the alleged mother(s). Make sure to add additional donors during your online order to receive the correct number of sample collection kits.

What if the mother is unavailable for a cheek swab?
We are able to accept other types of samples, such as hair with roots, a toothbrush, a razor or other items for forensic testing analysis on an as-required basis (surcharge applies). Please contact us for more information.

What if the mother is no longer alive?
Consider ordering a curiosity relatedness test that will verify the samples of their relatives, including alleged siblings or parents.
