Additional information
The sibling DNA test compares the DNA of two individuals to assess the probability that they share one or both biological parents. The result is expressed as a statistical probability, ranging from nearly 0% to 99.99%, reflecting the strength of the relationship. Contrary to the simplified idea that “full siblings” always share exactly 50% of their DNA (or 25% for half-siblings), these numbers are only averages. Each genetic relationship is unique, and the exact proportion of shared DNA can vary from one case to another. This is why our laboratory analyzes profiles across 22 distinct loci and uses a likelihood ratio calculation to provide a clear and precise probability estimate.
Process
If you are purchasing a non-legal test:
- After ordering your test, you'll receive a collection kit that includes 3 swabs (for the 2 presumed siblings and one parent). It is always recommended to test one or both known parents to obtain the most accurate results. You'll find the collection instructions in the envelope. This is a painless process.
- Register your kit and personal information in your customer portal on the Adnà website.
- Return your sample (in its original envelope) to the laboratory for sequencing and analysis.
- You will receive an e-mail notification that your test report has arrived in your Adnà customer portal.
If you are purchasing a legal test:
- One of our agents will contact you to set up an appointment with you and a nurse who will come to your home.
- In order to respect a strict chain of custody, it is the nurse's responsibility to open the collection kit you have received.
- The nurse will seal your sample in its original envelope and forward it to the analysis laboratory.
- You will be notified by e-mail that your analysis report has arrived in your customer portal on the Adnà website. This report will have legal force with the authorities.

Voici une courte vidéo qui vous explique, étape par étape, comment vous enregistrer et activer votre trousse Adnà:
What is the difference between a twin test and a sibling test?
A twin test determines whether twins are monozygotic (identical) or dizygotic (fraternal) by comparing their DNA.
A sibling test, on the other hand, evaluates the biological relationship between two individuals to determine if they are brothers or sisters by analyzing the proportion of shared DNA.
How long will it take to receive my results?
The time required to process and analyze your sample depends on the type of report you have ordered. Once it arrives at the laboratory, processing times are as follows:
- Paternity and other filiation test kits are processed and sent out to you within 24 hours. Once you have sent back your sample and it has reached the laboratory, results are normally ready within 2 days following reception at the laboratory.
- Biomarker tests are processed in 7 to 14 working days.
- Ancestry, sports performance, nutrition, skincare, talent & personality, microbiome, genetic predisposition and pharmacogenetics test kits are processed and shipped to you within 24 hours and results are normally received within 30 to 60 days of placing your order.
How will I receive my results?
You will receive an email notification when your report has arrived on the Adnà portal. Simply log in to your account.

What types of genetic tests do you offer?
Our tests fall into several categories:
- Filiation tests, which identify whether there is a familial relationship between two or more individuals.
- Well-being tests, which provide information on how your genes can influence your lifestyle, preferences, health, and well-being.
- Health tests, which help identify genetic predispositions to certain diseases or how the body metabolizes specific medications.
- Ancestry tests, which offer insights into an individual’s family origins and genetic lineage across different historical periods.
- Microbiome tests, which identify and quantify the various bacteria and microorganisms present in a person’s microbiome.
- Biomarker tests, which measure specific substances in the blood to assess an individual’s health, detect diseases, or monitor their progression.
What are the limits of your tests?
- Our tests are for informational and educational purposes. They are not intended to be used as a diagnostic tool. Your traits are not only influenced by genetics, but also by many other factors such as social and geographical environment, education, lifestyle, etc. We encourage you to interpret the results with caution, and to consult healthcare professionals for further evaluation if necessary.
The information extracted from the tests and presented in our reports should be considered as indications of predisposition and not as definitive diagnoses. Their relevance may vary according to numerous environmental factors.
What is the scientific basis for your tests?
- A parentage test uses DNA to establish family relationships. It analyzes genetic markers to identify biological relationships between parents and children, grandparents, uncles, aunts, twins and siblings. DNA comparison reveals specific genetic similarities, indicating a family relationship. These tests exploit genetic patterns of inheritance shared by members of the same family. In this way, they can map out extended family connections, offering a precise overview of biological links. Our parentage tests offer close to 99.9% accuracy.
- Our lifestyle and health tests are based on a combination of cutting-edge technologies and internationally recognized scientific studies. DNA sequencing is performed using Illumina technology. This technology can analyze over 700,000 genetic markers. Added to this is the integration of peer-reviewed studies accepted by the international scientific community, which enable a connection to be made between a particular gene and a potential predisposition. This ensures that reports are based on recent, relevant scientific data that reflect an established scientific consensus.
What information can I find in your genetic reports?
- Depending on the type of test you choose, you can expect to receive detailed information about your parentage, your ancestry, personalized health advice, or insight into specific genetic traits.
Can your tests identify predispositions to certain diseases?
- Yes, our Genetic Predisposition Test answers this question. However, this test is not intended for diagnostic purposes.
A special sample refers to any type of biological sample that is not collected using a buccal swab. Examples include hair, a cup, a toothbrush, etc. The processing time is approximately 20 days, as it is more complex than a standard buccal swab. Feel free to contact us if you have any doubts about the item to be analyzed.
