Where in the philippines offers dna test ,how much it cost?what specimen can be use?
The NBI is surely doing it in their lab BUT I am not sure if it is open for the public, you can try also DOH and PGH. Specimens can be a hair strand, nail trimmings, saliva, semen, tears, sweat- bodily fluids in general. Even skin scrappings. Normally a mouth swab will be submitted to the lab. Prepare to shell out no lower than 5,000 pesos. Depends on the purpose of DNA testing. Is it for paternity testing or for criminal investigation? Hope this helps a little.

How much does a DNA test cost ?
you should wait because it increases the risk for miscarriage. you can purchase a test for like $200 a a pharmacy (they have everything anymore!) near the prescription counter. I am not sure if all pharmacies have them, but I have seen them. you send in a mouth swab of you, the baby, and the possible father and they analyze it and send you the results. I never used it, but it looks interesting. I don't know about the real lab tests though.
I had a DNA test at St Luke's Manila Philippines in 2005?
I do not see any suspicious or fishy going on even if the mother and the two(2) guys that drew the blood all left the room. If they want to go to the toilet, we simply cannot tell them it is not allowed. It is a hospital not a prison facility for criminals. All the medical staff want is the blood period not the person who gave the blood samples. Because it is the blood that they have to analyze and not the person who gave them, to determine the link between two(2) or more individual to one another, for the DNA. I do not see any conspiracy in this issue. -------- I totally disagree with clncarplz that DNA can be trace through saliva if that is true how come DNA test are so expensive when you can just buy a kit somewhere in Mercury drug or Watson drugstore for it. That is a lot of nonsense. If it can be done at home why do people still have to go to a hospital for a DNA. Clncarplz should get his facts straight instead of misleading a lot of people here at Yahoo. What clncarplz is probably telling us is a PREGNANCY TEST not a DNA test. What an IQ huh! -------- yes I am a Filipino why clncarplz is not a Filipino what is she an alien from planet x? a businesswoman who says she earn a lot selling condominium somewhere in leyte so she can combine business and pleasure at yahoo? I disagree with the kit if there is one pls. let us know where to buy this for DNA sampling data. the bone that you said that require DNA sample is to determine the origin or age of the person not looking for relative while here we talk about blood not bones clncarplz if you like debate I am just here and I am a Filipino and you are a japanes,chinese,bangladeshi what? --------- to clncarplz please just sell condo and do not pretend you absolutely know everything under the sun. No person is born to know almost everything.
How much do dna test cost and where could i get one done?
It is doubtful if your local hospital would do DNA testing for ancestry. There are many sites: I used www.familytreedna.com, the world's; oldest, largest, and best. They also do DNA testing for the National Geographics Genotype Program, which traces human migration patterns worldwide. Check out their website. I believe tests begin at about $300. It has been several years since I had mine done. My DNA test (I had the lowest level done for both mtDNA (mother to mother) and yDNA (father to father)) revealed that I have ancestors from each country in Europe (which my paper trail attests), the Middle East, more than 30 countries in Africa, China, Japan, the Philippines, Australia, New Zealand, North & South America...as well as Native Americans, Innuits and Eskimos..And Ashkenazi & Sephardic Jews. I would imagine that yours would be similar. Family Tree also has tutorials to tell you about genetic testing and what the results mean. There are many other sites; many specialize, as in African Americans, Chinese, etc. Just google them.
Why can't hospitals to a paternity test when children are born?
No, hospitals don't ask about paternity tests. Were they married? In some states, the husband is legally considered the father regardless of paternity tests. If they weren't married, then she can't sue for child support or whatever without a paternity test if he doesn't admit to being the father. But one or both of them will have to pay for the test. She could have his name taken off of the birth certificate instead. But he certainly can contest paternity, especially if he has proof that she was cheating.
How much is dna testing?
For “do it yourself” testing that is done by submitting samples to a lab via the mail the pricing varies depending on market conditions. However, the price range is often seen between $120 - $200 dollars. This price usually includes analyzing samples from three individuals: the child, the biological mother and the suspected father. Each sample must be handled independent of the other. Most “do it yourself” testing kits come with instructions as well as buccal swabs to collect the samples for DNA analysis. By placing them inside the mouth and rubbing against the cheeks they will collect cell samples that can then be analyzed. Pricing is also dependent on turnaround time for the tests, which can vary from 1-2 day analysis to several weeks. For court-approved, regulated testing the price range varies from $250 - $2,000 depending on at what stage the testing is required. Prenatal testing is the most expensive because it requires the greatest amount of work and the highest risk. Testing of a child after birth can usually be done with the buccal swab method and is considered standard testing with no additional costs. The price is usually set forth by the hospital or other medical facility doing the testing and results are returned usually within one week of having the samples collected.
How is ancestry.com for East Asian DNA tests and tracing one’s heritage? Are birth records available? Is the mitochondrial record as complete for the Asian continent?
The availability of genealogical records varies sharply from country to country. The Philippines, where most of the population were Roman Catholics for the last few centuries, and were baptized in the churches, has excellent records for many parishes, though other records were destroyed over the years by fire, flood, and insects. Chinese families tend to have very good records of the male line - the Kungs can literally trace every step of the way back to Confucius! - but very poor records of the female line. Japan, I believe, has pretty good records; Korea I don’t know.How much of this is covered by “ancestry.com” I don’t know, but I do know that by far the finest repository of genealogical records from around the world is maintained by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons). So if you are willing to try to do your own research, go to the nearest LDS Reading Room - there are many of them around - and consult with the librarian/archivist on duty there. They’ll introduce you to the finding aids, and if you can locate some records that might help you find your ancestors, they’ll order the microfilms to be brought there for you to peruse, for a nominal fee. I’ve got no connection with the LDS, but I consider them an enormous boon to the whole “ancestry” movement.
