Twin Zygosity Testing

Do you want to know if you are identical or fraternal twins?

Genelex Twin DNA Testing can help.

This test determines whether twins are fraternal or identical. The process is simple. We send you a collection kit that contains sterile swabs that are rubbed on the inside of the cheek of each twin. The cells that are on the swabs contain the DNA we use for the test. Once the samples are in our lab, we compare the genetic profile of the twins to determine whether or not they are identical. Identical twins have the exact same genetic pattern, fraternal twins have different genetic patterns.

To initiate testing, please take the following steps:

1) Contact Genelex at (800) 523-3080
We will answer your questions and inform you of payment options. Genelex accepts all major credit cards and money orders. If testing is for medical purposes, we can provide CPT codes for medical reimbursement.

2) Arrange for payment
Your twin zygosity test charge is $475.

3) Collect and send your DNA samples

After samples are taken and a deposit or payment is received, testing will begin at Genelex's laboratory. Testing is generally complete and reports are issued approximately 5-7 business days later. Your results are considered confidential and will not be released to any non-tested individual without your written consent.
