Advanced Infidelity DNA Test
The most advanced infidelity testing available.
Advanced Infidelity Test
Do you suspect your spouse of cheating? Have you found suspicious items around the house that don’t belong to you or anyone in your family? An errant undergarment, extra toothbrush, stain on a shirt or bed sheets?
Infidelity can be difficult to prove, but if you need confirmation of evidence for yourself or others, forensic DNA testing is the best way to do so. Our advanced tests work for both male and females, so every philandering girlfriend, boyfriend, husband, or wife can be tested for.
If you need an accurate, fast, and private test for infidelity, this advanced DNA test is for you.
Please see out Infidelity Test Results Page for more detailed information on what to expect from an infidelity test.
In our Advanced Infidelity DNA Test our DNA analysts will conduct what is known as a multiple gender or Autosomal test on the collected sample or stain. This will compile all DNA profiles, compare all samples against one another and determine whether the found genetic material belongs to a male, female, or a mix of both.
The complete process is broken down into these steps:
Identify if there is any existing human DNA on the suspected sample or stain.
If human DNA is found, we will attempt to build DNA profiles. These will be displayed on the report.
Distinguish whether the DNA profile(s) found are male, female, or a mix of both.
Our analysts will compare all DNA found to a reference swab you submit to match or eliminate your DNA from the equation. If provided, we will match your partners DNA reference swab and indicate if it is found in the sample or stain. These samples can be Special Samples.
When all the testing is done, Validity Genetics will generate a report containing a write up stating if DNA was detected, show the DNA profiles found, and if there was a match or non-match between the reference swab and sample(s) submitted.
What To Do After Ordering Your Test
After ordering you will be contacted by a Validity Genetics representative with additional instructions and the address to send your samples to. Additionally, depending on how many comparison samples you need, a DNA Sample Collection Kit will be mailed to you in order to collect the DNA comparison swab(s) used to test against the Special Sample. Simply follow the instructions in the kit to gather the DNA.
If you already have your comparison samples, place each persons samples in their own envelope (please do not use a plastic or zip-lock bag or mix the samples) labeled with order #, name of person (if applicable), date of collection, and include them with your Special Sample.
You will need to send the Special Sample(s) to our laboratory on your own. Depending on what the Special Sample is we recommend placing it inside a paper bag or envelope, please do not place inside a plastic zip-lock bag. On the outside of the bag/envelope please label the following:
the order number (this will be on your order confirmation),
a brief description of the item,
date of the collection,
approximate age of the sample.

The Special Samples should all be placed inside a box or mailer envelope (plastic is fine) and sent to our laboratory. We highly recommend using a tracked shipping service.
The address to send the Special Sample to is:
Validity Genetics DNA

Forensic or Special Samples in Infidelity Testing
What types of items can I use for sample collection?
The most common and helpful sources of a DNA test include things that can help prove a claim of adultery. These include samples like:
Used condom
Toothbrush
Feminine hygiene pads
Blood
Stained Sheets
Underwear and other clothing
Hair
This is not a complete list of sample sources.

Other samples that might contain DNA include things like gum, dental floss, toothpicks, nail clippings, clothing, head coverings (like hats or bandanas), or any other items from which an expert can extract DNA. Contact us to make sure your sample can be used. An additional fee may be required based upon the type of sample submitted.

Special note about old or degraded DNA samples
Is there an old article of clothing, hairs, or other object you swear aren't yours or your partners? Maybe you hid it somewhere and were planning to use it to confront them. Send it to us to test!
Ultraviolet light, extreme temperature and moisture are the primary destructive agents that lead to the degradation of DNA molecules. But, even if it has been a while since you found a suspicious object, degraded samples may still be useful. Because infidelity testing does not require a detailed profile workup, it’s possible that degraded samples can also be used to make infidelity determinations.

Infidelity DNA Testing:
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Our Advanced Infidelity DNA Test includes autosomal DNA extraction, DNA profiling, and comparison testing to help identify human DNA found on suspicious clothing, stains, or personal items.
The laboratory analyzes the submitted evidence for recoverable human DNA, determines whether male, female, or mixed DNA profiles are present, and compares suitable profiles against the reference DNA sample(s) provided.
Unlike our Complete Infidelity DNA Test, the Advanced Test does not automatically include semen detection.
-
Your laboratory report will describe the DNA recovered from the submitted evidence, including any identifiable male, female, or mixed DNA profiles.
When sufficient DNA is available, the report may also indicate whether multiple individuals contributed DNA and whether the recovered profiles are consistent with the reference samples submitted for comparison.
You can view examples of Infidelity DNA Test Results to see how our laboratory findings are presented.
-
The Advanced Infidelity DNA Test can detect DNA profiles that are not consistent with your own or another submitted reference sample.
However, detecting an additional DNA profile does not automatically identify the individual who contributed it. To determine whether the DNA is consistent with a particular person, a suitable reference DNA sample from that individual must be provided.
DNA testing also cannot determine when or how the DNA was deposited.
-
We can analyze many types of personal items that may contain human DNA, including:
Underwear and other clothing
Bed sheets, pillowcases, and bedding
Clothing or fabrics with suspicious stains
Used condoms
Toothbrushes and other personal items
Towels and similar materials
The ability to recover usable DNA depends on the type of item, how it was handled or stored, and the amount and condition of the biological material present.
For best results, avoid washing or unnecessarily handling the item. Allow damp samples to air-dry completely and package each item separately in a clean paper envelope or bag.
-
Both tests include autosomal DNA extraction, profiling, and comparison testing to evaluate human DNA found on submitted evidence.
The primary difference is that the Complete Infidelity DNA Test also includes confirmatory semen detection.
If your main concern is identifying DNA contributors or comparing recovered DNA against known individuals, the Advanced Infidelity DNA Test may be appropriate.
If you also need to confirm whether semen is present on an item, consider the Complete Infidelity DNA Test.
-
Yes. The Advanced Infidelity DNA Test uses autosomal STR analysis, which can detect and profile human DNA from males and females.
Depending on the evidence, testing may identify a single DNA contributor or a mixture of DNA from multiple individuals.
However, samples containing very small amounts of male DNA mixed with a larger amount of female DNA can be challenging to analyze.
In certain situations, specialized Y-STR DNA testing may be useful because it specifically targets male DNA.
-
Standard results are generally available within 5–7 business days after our laboratory receives your samples.
Business days are Monday through Friday, excluding laboratory holidays.
Rush testing may be available for qualifying samples, with results as soon as the next business day after the item is placed into testing. Additional fees apply.
Results are delivered confidentially by email in PDF format.
-
Our laboratory uses established forensic DNA testing methods, including autosomal STR analysis, to examine recoverable human DNA and compare suitable DNA profiles against known reference samples.
The reliability of the results depends on the amount, quality, and condition of the DNA recovered. Samples containing degraded DNA, very small quantities of DNA, or DNA from multiple contributors may produce limited or inconclusive findings.
Although DNA comparison can provide strong evidence about whether profiles are consistent with one another, no test can guarantee that usable DNA will be recovered from every item.
If you are unsure which testing service is appropriate, contact Validity Genetics before ordering.
