DNA DIAGNOSTICS CENTER, INC.
FAIRFIELD, OH

For paternity testing while pregnant, the mother needs to only provide a blood sample. Is it necessary to have all the sample types be the same when doing a paternity test? At DDC we provide at least a 99.9% probability on prenatal paternity tests. There have been many studies to confirm the accuracy of non-invasive testing for paternity. One such study, as reported in the You will receive results within 5-7 business days from the time the samples are received at DDC’s laboratory in Ohio. Our paternity experts are here to ensure you get the test that’s right for you.

Helping Others in Need Our Mission Help others discover the truth and find answers through our expertise in DNA testing and analysis. DNA Diagnostics Center, also known as DDC, is one of the leading and most highly accredited genetic testing laboratories in the world. We provide comprehensive DNA testing services in four areas: paternity and family relationships; lifestyle testing including ancestry, health and wellness, veterinary, and forensics testing. Three things: Our people, Our processes, and Our passion for helping others. At DDC, we are dedicated to you. It starts with our client service team that is staffed with highly trained, knowledgeable, and caring professionals. Once your DNA samples arrive at our laboratory, DDC’s outstanding team of scientists, technicians, and PhD’s carefully receive, prepare, amplify, sequence, and analyze your DNA to produce reliable results that you can count on for accuracy. To be an industry leader in genetic testing for over 20 years requires continuous improvement. DDC was the first to adopt robotics technology in its laboratory ensuring highly stringent and efficient handling of DNA samples. The company was recognized by the American Association of Blood Banks (AABB) for its Dual Process™, in which paternity cheek swab samples are independently tested two times producing results of unmatched quality and reliability. Uncompromising attention to detail and a relentless pursuit of the best processes has earned DDC the reputation as one of the most trusted labs in the world. Our Passion for Helping Others: At DDC, we love what we do. The results from our DNA testing services change lives for the better. Whether it’s helping a young woman to determine the father of her child, providing irrefutable evidence for an immigrant’s visa petition, or assisting a breeder to identify disease traits in their dogs, our work makes a difference. We positively impact our clients every day, and even go one step beyond by donating our services to many State Innocence Projects.

Helping Others in Need Our Mission Help others discover the truth and find answers through our expertise in DNA testing and analysis. DNA Diagnostics Center, also known as DDC, is one of the leading and most highly accredited genetic testing laboratories in the world. We provide comprehensive DNA testing services in four areas: paternity and family relationships; lifestyle testing including ancestry, health and wellness, veterinary, and forensics testing. Every year, we process and analyze close to one million samples sent from all over the world. We are the trusted laboratory for government agencies, legal professionals, and healthcare practitioners as well as the choice for major media programs such Maury, Dr. Phil, and Paternity Court as well as high-profile celebrity cases that require an added layer of security. For over 20 years, the scientists at DDC have been generating timely, reliable, and confidential DNA test results that change lives for the better. DDC is the only company that runs every paternity DNA sample twice to ensure the right result. When the swabs arrive in our lab, we record their arrival and immediately divide them into two to start our proprietary process. Independent teams perform two separate tests. At each step, the samples are tracked, identified, and checked against our records, and a staff member signs off at each point. Our use of robots in most of the sample preparation steps eliminates the possibility of human error such as sample switching and/or cross-contamination. Laboratory Directors, who are PhD’s, review the raw data produced from the independent tests and verify that the results match. The necessary statistical calculations are then performed to answer the question of paternity, identity, and family relationship. DDC is the only paternity testing lab to use a complete parallel testing process that rules out false results. The AABB (American Association of Blood Banks) honored DDC with its “Commendable Practice Award” as the first lab to implement Dual Process™ for quality testing. Early in its history, DDC invested in technology that used the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) that revolutionized the DNA testing industry by providing a quick method for reproducing specific portions of a DNA molecule for subsequent analysis. We have further refined and customized our methods to provide seamless and faster sample processing using the GeneAmp® PCR System 9700 especially for paternity and forensics applications. DDC seeks out and hires the best and brightest scientists who share our belief in helping others by providing superior DNA results and analysis. Each DNA testing situation is unique, and some require even more careful analysis than others. Our DNA experts have the depth of experience required to make scientifically sound judgments on every case—even those with unexpected results that arise from genetic mutations or unusual biological relationships. Our laboratory team is highly trained and over the years the company has developed an expertise in relationship and identity DNA testing that is unmatched on a global scale.
