Sample Collection Guide Using The Home DNA Test

The procedure for collecting your DNA samples using our DNA test kit at home is fairly simple. You will receive your paternity test kit with full instructions around 2 business days after placing your order.

Please follow these visual examples for collecting your DNA samples using our DNA kit. You need to repeat this process for for every person to be tested.

Step One:  (view image)
You will find a number of coloured envelopes in your DNA testing kit. Normally kits provided are pre-packed and will come with  swabs for up to three people.

Step Two:  (view image)
Inside each envelope is a set of colour coded swabs. These swabs are the same colour as the envelope they come in.  It is recommended not to eat or drink at least half an hour before an oral sample is taken

Step Three:  (view image)
Fill out the submission forms as well as the details on the outside of the envelope making sure everything is completed clearly and correctly. Please print in block capitals.

Step Four:  (view image)
Remove the swabs from the paper packaging. Be careful not to touch the cotton end of the swab with anything so it remains sterile. There are two swabs provided per each person to be tested.

Step Five:  (view image)
Rub the cotton end of the swab along the inside of your cheek, under your tongue and behind your lips as well. Do this for 10 seconds per person. Remember you are collecting cheek cells and not just saliva, so rub right against the inside of the cheek. Do this with both of the colour coded swabs per person.

Step Six:  (view image)
Before placing the swab back in the colour coded envelope allow the swab a MINIMUM of 1 hour to dry. Place the swab somewhere that the end of the swab is not touching anything else. When dry place the swabs back in the colour coded envelope. Do NOT touch the end of the swab at anytime, even to check if it is dry.

Step Seven:  (view image)
Place the colour coded envelopes into the easyDNA self addressed envelope with your submission form and send back to easyDNA for processing. Please remember to affix a postage stamp.
