How It Works
What Does an Avuncular DNA Test Actually Measure?
An avuncular DNA test doesn’t compare two unrelated individuals. It looks for shared DNA between a child and a supposed aunt or uncle. Siblings typically share about 50% of their DNA, which means when a biological father is unavailable, his brother or sister will share a significant amount of DNA with the child.
With 24+ markers analyzed in our AABB accredited labs, we compare the markers from the child against the markers from the biological uncle or aunt to determine a kinship index — the statistical probability of a biological relationship. A result above 90% is a strong indication that a biological relationship exists.
Including the mother’s DNA sample significantly strengthens results — her DNA can be subtracted from the child’s results, leaving a cleaner comparison. Not sure if you need the mother’s sample? Call us at 803-766-0036 and we’ll guide you.

What is an avuncular DNA test and how does it work?
An avuncular DNA test checks how much DNA a child shares with an aunt or uncle to determine if they are biologically related. Since siblings share about 50% of their DNA, a biological aunt or uncle will share a meaningful amount with the child. Our AABB accredited labs analyze 24+ genetic markers and calculate a kinship index. A result above 90% is a strong indicator of a biological relationship.
When should I choose an avuncular test instead of a paternity test in Columbia?
You should choose an avuncular test when the father is not available to test — whether he has passed away, lives out of state, or is unwilling to participate. This comes up often in Columbia and the Midlands for Social Security survivor benefits, inheritance claims, and immigration cases. If a father’s brother or sister can provide a sample, that is often all we need. Call us at 803-766-0036 and we will help you figure out which test fits your situation.
Will avuncular DNA test results hold up in court or with immigration offices?
Yes, our legal avuncular DNA test results are fully admissible in family court and accepted by government and immigration offices. Odosek Lab Solutions follows a strict chain-of-custody process for every sample we collect in Columbia and throughout the Midlands. Our AABB accredited lab standards meet the requirements set by the American Association of Blood Banks.
Does the child’s mother need to give a sample for an avuncular DNA test?
The mother’s sample is not required, but it makes a big difference. Her DNA helps the lab separate out her side of the markers, leaving a cleaner comparison between the child and the alleged aunt or uncle. Without it, results sometimes come back inconclusive. Adding her sample is one of the easiest ways to get a clearer, stronger answer.
What does an inconclusive avuncular DNA result mean?
Inconclusive means the DNA fell in a gray zone — the lab could not say yes or no with enough confidence. It does not mean the test failed. It usually means more information is needed. Adding the mother’s sample or testing other relatives on the alleged father’s side can sharpen the result. Call us at 803-766-0036 and we’ll tell you exactly what to expect.
How is an avuncular DNA test different from a paternity test?
A paternity test compares a child directly to a possible father. An avuncular test is one step removed — it compares the child to the father’s sibling. That means less shared DNA to work with, about 25% instead of 50%. Results can still be strong and court-admissible with the right participants and an AABB accredited lab.
Odosek Lab Solutions only uses AABB accredited facilities to conduct legal chain-of-custody testing, with scientific experts that ensure genetic testing results you can trust.
