AffinityDNA Horse Parentage DNA Test | Equine Home Sample Collection Kit for Sire, Dam and Foal | Results in 10 Working Days | A Complete Paternity Test Kit With No Extra Fees

• DEFINITIVE PARENTAGE TESTING: Parentage for horses can be definitively established using PCR DNA technology. For parentage testing, the laboratory uses an optimised 22-DNA marker panel plus a gender marker. A typical test includes both parents. If the dam is not available, please contact us for more information about extended-test options for equine DNA testing for parentage.
• EASY SAMPLE COLLECTION: You collect the DNA samples using hair from the main of an adult horse or hair from the tail of a foal—it’s easy!
• DETAILED PATERNITY REPORT: Once results are ready, we email a detailed parentage report showing inclusion or exclusion of each sire tested along with a DNA Profile summary page. DNA results are emailed within 10 working days, once samples are received at the laboratory.
• COMPLETE TESTING KIT: The hair sample collection kit contains sample collection instructions, test submission form and 1 reply envelope.
• ABOUT US: AffinityDNA is an industry-leading DNA Testing company with more than 15 years’ experience in the DNA business & established partnerships with some of the most highly accredited DNA testing laboratories in the world.

Whether you need proof of parentage for your new equine addition or would like to offer your purchasers DNA-certified pedigrees, we are ready to help through horse DNA paternity testing. Parentage for horses can be definitively established using PCR DNA technology. For parentage testing, the laboratory uses an optimised 22-DNA marker panel plus a gender marker. A typical test includes both parents. Including the mother’s DNA can help to strengthen results. If the dam is not available, please contact us for more information about extended-test options for equine DNA testing for parentage. You collect the DNA samples using hair from the main of an adult horse or hair from the tail of a foal—it’s easy! DNA testing is performed from hair samples collected from the mane above the withers. The DNA is contained in the root bulb (follicle). The hair from the mane of a foal may be fine and not have much of a root bulb. When collecting samples from young foals, collect hair from the tail instead where the follicle at the end is larger. Once results are ready, we email a detailed parentage report showing inclusion or exclusion of each sire tested along with a DNA Profile summary page. Results are reported as either: · Parentage qualifies (inclusion of sire and dam): Both the sire and dam matched the offspring (foal) at all 22 DNA markers. · Parentage does not qualify (exclusion of sire, dam is included): The dam matched the offspring (foal), but the possible sire did not match the offspring and is not the sire. DNA results are emailed within 10 working days, once samples are received at the laboratory. NOTE: This test does not determine the breed make-up or lineage of a horse. It provides a DNA profile only for the horse tested.
