Human identification by DNA in Moscow
The specialization of our molecular-genetic center «DTL» is all types of DNA analysis. Among our wide range of tests, we also conduct DNA testing for human identification.
The essence of this DNA test is to determine a person’s identity based on biological material (such as soft tissues, teeth, bones, hair, etc.). The identity can be confirmed by comparing the biological sample with a DNA reference sample known to belong to that individual. Additionally, familial relationships (paternity, maternity, kinship) can be established between the person and the provided biological material, thereby confirming their identity.
The accuracy of this DNA analysis is exceptionally high, reaching 100%. To ensure absolute precision, our laboratory conducts two parallel tests by different specialist teams. The results are then verified and certified with the laboratory head’s signature and official seal.

How to Take a DNA Identification Test
The process of collecting DNA samples from participants for a DNA identification test is completely painless and takes about 4–6 minutes. The most commonly used DNA sample for this genetic test is an oral swab using a cotton swab (buccal epithelial cell collection), often referred to as a «saliva test» (standard DNA sample).
If it is not possible to obtain a standard sample for any reason, other non-standard samples can be used, such as blood, cigarette butts, hair, any biological stains or fluids, nails, utensils, and tableware, etc. For a detailed list and descriptions, see here.
