Become AABB-Accredited: Relationship (DNA) Testing
AABB Accreditation is widely-recognized as the gold standard in relationship testing.
Why AABB Accreditation?
AABB is the only Relationship Testing accrediting body with standards that provide formulae, interpretation and guidance for calculation of parentage and kinship relationships.
As a global accrediting organization, AABB’s standards are often incorporated into other organizations’ standards.
Many U.S. statutes require AABB accreditation for legal relationship tests and U.S. federal agencies require AABB accreditation for DNA testing performed for immigration and visa applications.
AABB Accreditation and Standards bring expertise in parentage and familial relationship calculations, reducing the risk of incorrect reporting of a relationship.
Attaining AABB Accreditation signifies your facility is adhering to the highest levels of quality, and increases consumer and stakeholder confidence.
