Genetic fingerprinting (also known as genetic profiling) identifies individuals by their DNA patterns. Genetic genealogy places that individual within a set family lineage. This category covers those organisations that carry out the scientific testing.

Submissions are reviewed prior to acceptance. Category allocation is at the discretion of the editor. A site may be relocated, or titles and descriptions altered to comply with ODP or category guidelines. Due to the high volume of submissions this process may take some time. Please be patient. Do not resubmit as this will result in a duplicated entry. Multiple submissions are not accepted.
