Our History

Genetrace specializes in DNA testing. Our roots began as a legal and forensic DNA testing facility, performing advanced DNA analysis for government, hospitals, lawyers and law enforcement, and handling prestigious legal and high profile forensic casework. Genetrace was one of the first laboratories to implement buccal swab DNA collection in routine casework over a decade ago, and we have stayed true to our mission to provide the latest DNA testing technology by developing new and advanced DNA tests through cutting-edge research and development.

Our Clients

For over a decade, Genetrace has been relied upon as a trusted and recognized provider of critical medical diagnostic and identity testing services to hospitals, lawyers and government organizations.

Genetrace’s medical DNA diagnostic laboratory services the medical community throughout North America and around the world.

The forensic legal DNA testing department of Genetrace specializes in handling forensic casework for government agencies, police departments and law offices that rely upon our legal reports for use in court. Our results have been validated for use in court in every state in the US and every province and territory in Canada. Genetrace’s state-of-the-art DNA testing facility specializes in chain-of-custody DNA collections. Our legal and forensic test reports are fully court admissible.

While Genetrace is best known for supplying medical and legal DNA testing services to hospitals and government organizations, we have recently also began offering direct to consumer DNA testing, allowing consumers to conveniently access DNA testing for medical, identity and forensic applications.
