Participants will report results for STR/YSTR analyses, stastistical calculations, and relationship associations. This test also contains an optional kinship exercise consisting of additional profiles and a proposed relationship for evaluation. Three testing cycles are offered each year to meet AABB requirements. The first cycle of testing includes Test 5870/5, the second cycle includes Test 5871/6, and the third cycle includes Test 5782/7.

Sample Description: Choose between sample sets on FTA™ Micro Cards (Test 5870) or Swabs (Test 5875). Testing sets can consist of a mother, child, and two alleged fathers. Blood standards for Tests 5870 and 5875 are sourced from the same donors and shipped at the same time, and reporting aspects are combined. Different donor sources are used for the two test cycles offered later in the year.

Samples ship in February.
