We are listed as one of the Companies on the Ministry of Justice’s List of approved bodies for conducting DNA tests but this (list) is specifically for parentage tests conducted for the Courts. Please note that complex DNA tests such as prenatal paternity tests are outside the current scope of the Company’s ISO17025 accreditation.
