AlphaBiolabs

AlphaBiolabs is a DNA, drug and alcohol testing laboratory founded in 2004 with a US lab at 6555 Sanger Road, Orlando, Florida, so pick your test, then order through ShopBack before you pay, where ShopBack Cashback works like a discount, only easier than a promo code. The US site sells home relationship tests (paternity, maternity, sibling, twins, grandparent, aunt, uncle), prenatal paternity and gender tests, celiac and lactose genetic tests, ancestry tests, and home drug tests. The lab holds ISO 17025 accreditation and runs legal tests under CAP and AABB accreditation.

You order the kit online, AlphaBiolabs posts it (to two different addresses if the people being tested live apart), each person rubs a cheek swab inside their mouth, and you mail the swabs back. Results are emailed as a password protected report about 3 business days after the samples reach the Orlando lab; a paper copy costs $15 extra. Order via the ShopBack AlphaBiolabs page so the Cashback tracks.

A peace of mind test is collected at home and the result is for your own information; it cannot be used in court. A legal DNA test (from $279 plus collection fees) uses the same lab analysis, but AlphaBiolabs arranges an appointment at an approved local clinic where an independent collector takes the swabs, checks identity and documents chain of custody. That paperwork makes the result acceptable for child custody, child support, life insurance, military or social security benefits, inheritance, name changes and birth certificates, though not for immigration. ShopBack Cashback applies to either tier.

Standard relationship tests and the legal test are reported within 3 business days from receipt of samples at the lab. Prenatal gender takes 3 to 4 days, celiac 4 to 5 days, prenatal paternity 5 to 8 business days, and home drug tests 7 to 10 business days.

Retail ancestry kits such as AncestryDNA and 23andMe are built around ethnicity estimates and relative matching across their own databases, not a yes or no answer about a named person. AlphaBiolabs is a relationship testing lab first: its paternity report compares the tested people directly using up to 45 genetic markers and gives a probability of relationship, typically above 99.99 percent for an inclusion. AlphaBiolabs also sells its own ancestry tests, but for ancestry alone the large consumer databases show more matches. For a relationship answer, use AlphaBiolabs through the ShopBack page.

AlphaBiolabs sells three home drug test formats. The hair test ($99) reads a longer history because metabolites lock into the hair as it grows. The nail clipping test also covers a long window and adds alcohol markers. The urine kit reflects recent use only. All three return results in 7 to 10 business days and none of the home versions carry chain of custody, so they are for personal information rather than legal use. Click out from the ShopBack AlphaBiolabs page first so the purchase earns Cashback.

Yes, with fees that depend on timing. For a standard relationship test you get a full refund if you cancel before the kit ships, a $40 postage and admin fee is deducted once the kit has shipped, and no refund is made after samples reach the lab. Prenatal tests follow the same pattern with a $100 fee after dispatch, and a legal test cancelled before lab work starts carries a $75 admin fee. AlphaBiolabs cannot sell peace of mind tests to New York residents, and a child can only be tested with consent from a parent on the birth certificate, a legal guardian or a court order.
