You may have seen paternity testing on television; a man in a black
turtleneck proclaiming “YOU ARE (NOT) THE FATHER!” and then an on-air fight ensues for our
viewing pleasure. However, in reality, paternity testing in Alaska isn’t quite so melodramatic.
It’s actually quite simple: a paternity test in Alaska is a DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid which if
found in the nucleus of a cell that holds one’s genetic information) test that is used to
determine if a man is biologically the father of a child. Each person inherits a distinctive set
of DNA from each of their biological parents. So, in the Alaska lab, one would need to be able
to match a sequence of DNA from the alleged father with that of the babying order to determine
if he is indeed going to be a daddy. Determining the biological father of a child is important
for many reasons, including parental rights, citizenship, social benefits, immigration, adoption
and other instances where legal proof of blood relation is required by Alaska State. You may

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECEIVE MY DNA PATERNITY TEST RESULTS IN ALASKA?
Veritas Lab of Alaska provides DNA Paternity test results for Alaska residents within 3 to 5
days.
After specimens from both parties have been collected, Alaska Veritas Lab can undergo its procedure
to determine the biological father.
WHAT IS THE PROCESS OF LEGAL DNA PATERNITY TESTING IN ALASKA?
The process of DNA Paternity Testing in Alaska is simple.
- First, skin cells samples are collected from the father.
- A soft cotton swab is placed within the mouth of the father. After rubbing his mouth with the
swab, the skin cells will be collected. This helps in deciding if the father’s DNA matches the
child’s DNA. Alaska Veritas Labs’ professional assistant will rub the swab in the cheeks of
both the father and the child. If there are additional children that need to be tested,
additional fees will apply.
- Veritas Lab can determine which part of the child’s DNA belong to its mother if the mother
decides to participate in the testing.
- Next, we analyze the father’s DNA to decide which of his genetic markers are congruent to the
child.
- This means that we compare the child’s DNA to the father’s DNA to see if there is a potential
fit genetically.
- Unlike our competitors who search for 16 genetic markers, Veritas Labs examines 20 genetic
markers in Alaska.
- Thus, making it easier to determine the probability of a biological father within the test.
TYPES OF DNA TESTS OFFERED IN ALASKA
Veritas Lab of Alaska provides two forms of paternity tests:
- Chain of Custody DNA Paternity Test in Alaska: This test is primarily used for
legal reasons in Alaska. The results from this test displays the name of the biological father
of the child.
- Recommended use of DNA Testing in Alaska: Used for seeking child custody, child
support, medical/veteran benefits, adoption, immigration, etc.
- Basic DNA Paternity Test in Alaska: Solely used to determine the biological
father. However, this test cannot be used for legal evidence. This is because the names of the
tested parties will not be stated in the results.
- Recommended use of DNA Testing in Alaska: A quick and effective way to determine the
biological father without displaying the names of the people involved with the test.
There are a few types of prenatalpaternity testing in Alaska: Chronic Villus Sampling (CVS)
Amniocentesis (an Amniotic Fluid Test) and the Non-Invasive Paternity test. CVS, typically used to
detect Down syndrome or other genetic disorders, is a procedure that produces a karyotype, a picture
of a fetus’ chromosomes, takes samples from the placenta. Similarly, Amniocentesis takes a karyotype
from the amniotic fluid, or, the fluid that surrounds the baby in the womb (this is the “water” that
breaks when women go into labor). However these two methods are extremely invasive and have been
known to cause miscarriages. However, a non-invasive paternity test, like the one provided from
Veritas Lab’s state-of-the-art technology, is a safe procedure that takes prenatal DNA samples in
Alaska from the mother’s blood which has fetal DNA circulating throughout. Using Veritas Lab Corp’s
microarray SNP technology, it is easy to analyze the DNA of the child and the alleged father. This
type of testing, exclusively offered from Veritas Lab Corp of Alaska, combines risk-free blood
collection and state-of-the-art SNP microarray technology is the best option for prenatal testing.
Similarly, for instances where legal proof of blood relation is necessary for inheritance, estates,
and wills are required, we also provide post-mortem DNA testing.
Acugen Lab’s paternity is 99.9% accurate and delivers the fastest results of any other testing lab.
Even more, we offer pre-natal DNA testing that can be performed before 10 weeks of pregnancy and we
do not require a follow-up test after birth. No other lab in the country offers this
convenience.
However, sometimes a father isn’t keen on the idea of giving blood for a paternity test. Luckily,
Acugen Labs understands that this isn’t the easiest topic of conversation. We now offer
“self-knowledge” testing where the identity of all parties is kept anonymous. Furthermore, to make
it easier on our customers, we can use samples of DNA ranging from blood and hair to toothbrushes
and cigarette butts. With the impeccable customer service that Acugen Labs provides, we work around
the clock to give guidance and support until your results are delivered to you. We highly recommend,
first, that you talk with one of our knowledgeable representatives in order to receive the test
that’s right for you and your needs.
Acugen Labs are nationally accredited FDA and AABB laboratories and are licensed to administer
court-admissible DNA testing is accepted in courts throughout North America as legal evidence of
paternity or non-paternity. Packages range from the standard paternity and maternity testing to
sibling-ship, avuncular, and grand-paternity testing. Our legally admissible is accepted in courts
throughout North America as legal evidence of paternity or non-paternity. If the legal testing
option is chosen, a “chain-of-custody” sample collection process is followed during sample
collection to ensure proper witnessing and fingerprinting of the parties involved in the test. We
highly recommend that you consult with one of our highly trained representatives before deciding
which test is best for you.
We understand, too, that time is a crucial factor in situations as such and, we are pleased to
offer you exceptional customer service 24/7 and will book your appointment in a matter of minutes at any
of our 5,000+ collection sites located throughout the United States and Europe. After your appointment,
the results of your tests are available in

lessen our commitment to customer service and ensure that your experience will be confidential, friendly
and easy. We appreciate your business and the amount of trust that you put in our company regarding this
delicate matter and invite you to call 888-398-0059 today for a free consultation on your pre-natal DNA

best most inexpensive urine drug testing panel to pick from. If you however, do not know which drug
or panel you want to test for there are many different opinions to pick from. When it comes to
employers, they believe that the five panel is the best option because it’s the most inexpensive.
While it is our least priced panel, it is also the panel with the least drugs tested. Here at
Veritas we recommend that employers test for the ten panel. The cost is not much more from that of a
five panel and it will cover twice the number of drugs in the five panel including prescription
pills which are harder to visibly detect than the others. It is also easier to detect a user of any
of the drugs being tested in the five panel. In the ten panel, the prescription panels being tested
are odorless and not conspicuous while consuming therefore harder to suspect.
For individuals seeking to help their loved ones, there are many different options to test for and
every situation is different. For you we recommend that you call our toll-free number at
888-398-0059 to discuss with one of experts which panel may fit you the best for your urine drug
test.

All of Veritas’s Alaska Urine drug test are processed by SAMHSA certified laboratories. Once a urine
drug analysis is done it will be sent to our Medical Review Officer for further review. A Medical
Review Officer in Alaska is a licensed physician and toxicology expert. If the results of your
urine drug test are positive our Medical Review Officer will get in touch with you. Here you can
provide him with any prescriptions you may have. If the use of drugs appears to be legitimately for
medication, then our medical review officer will mark it off as negative. However, if there is no
connection between your prescriptions and the listed substance, then our Medical Review Officer will
leave it as is.
Can I or others cheat on your urine drug test in Alaska?
While there are many websites and individuals promoting that such things are possible in Alaska,
with a proper laboratory test cheating a urine drug test is highly impossible. Once the urine drug
test sample is collected, our collector will make sure that the urine is within the appropriate
temperature; if it’s not, a report will be sent to the laboratory notifying them. At the laboratory,
we will check the Ph levels of the urine as well as the Creatinine levels. If the laboratory
analyzes the sample and finds out it was diluted or adulterated they will send a report to our
Medical Review Officer who will then contact the donor.
Q: What is methamphetamine d and l isomer testing?
A: Methamphetamine is available in two forms: “d” and “l.” These compounds
are stereoisomers (chemical mirror images). They have exactly same chemical formula and
similar chemical properties. The “d” form is a prescription stimulant and appetite
suppressant. The “l” form is available over-the-counter as the active ingredient of the
Vick’s inhaler and is a metabolite of certain prescription medications. Both “d” and “l”
test positive by both immunoassay and most GC/MS assays.
Q: What do the percentages mean in Alaska methamphetamine d and l
isomer test results?
A: In order to help analyze and determine whether a positive for methamphetamine may be due
to an illegal source, it is helpful to determine the percentage of “d” isomer. For example,
following an individual’s use of Vick’s Vapor Inhaler, the expected result would be 100% “l”
methamphetamine. However, there is a possibility that some trace amounts of “d” isomer may
be present in the quantitative analysis. Laboratory guidelines have been established to
accept for the trace and presence of the “d” isomer. If the laboratory report indicates that
more than 80% “l” methamphetamine, the results or analysis are consistent with Vick’s Vapor
Inhaler use. If the laboratory reports more than 20% “d” methamphetamine present, the result
indicates the use of “d” methamphetamine other than the inhaler. Illegally produced
methamphetamine and amphetamine may contain mixtures of “d” and “l” isomers. Detect Lab
always use a medical review officer (MRO) to review all non-negative test results.
Q: What is the drug MDMA/Ecstasy?
A: Ecstasy is a commonly used as the street-name for MDMA
(3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine). MDMA is an illegal drug with characteristics of both
stimulants and hallucinogens which is very popular in the night club scene. MDMA is being
used in almost all night dance parties, now referred to as “raves”. In 1985, the US Drug
Enforcement Administration moved the drug to Schedule 1 status with absolutely no acceptance
to medical use.
Q: Why isn't MDMA detected in my standard amphetamine screen?
A: MDMA has a synthetic amphetamine structure and does cross-react with
other amphetamine assays. However, the cut-offs established for amphetamine by the
government do not pick up concentrations of MDMA in urine that are typically there following
exposure. To enable detection of MDMA following normal exposures, Veritas Labs uses reagents
developed specifically for MDMA and or ecstasy detection.
Q: What is urine specimen validity testing in Alaska?
A: Specimen validity testing (SVT) in Alaska is performed on a urine drug
testing specimen to detect substitution, adulteration, or dilution. See below for
explanation of such terms.
Substitution – Replacement of a urine drug testing specimen in Alaska that
does not have characteristic of normal human urine. Usually, this could be water or water
with salt in it and is identified by extreme creatinine and specific gravity results.
Adulteration – Introducing a substance to a urine drug testing specimen
after it has been collected. The product added is designed to mask or destroy the presence
of the drug or the drug metabolites that the urine drug testing specimen may contain. An
adulterant product may be added with the intention of masking the testing reagents.
Dilution – Usually it is the result of ingestion of large amounts of water
typically just before the urine drug testing collection takes place or adding water to the
urine drug testing sample once collected. Specimens meeting dilute specifications typically
are not considered questionable donations, however we recommend employers let their
employees know not to consume much water before a urine drug testing collection to prevent
this scenario.
Q: Does the Veritas conduct SVT before screening for drugs?
A: No, specimen validity testing is performed at
the same time of the initial urine drug test. Depending upon the urine drug screen and the
specimen validity results, the laboratory will release either report
- Both the drug screen and the specimen validity urine test results.
- The specimen validity test results only.
- The urine drug screen results only.
Q: Is the nitrite test threshold based on body functions, or does it
allow for water or food ingestions with high nitrates, or infections.
A: The nitrite threshold level established by the Federal Government is
500ug/mL. This is based on the level at which a urine drug screen may be somewhat impacted
by this adulterant and by which no normal physiological level has been detected.
Q: How would urine drug test be evaluated when nitrates are 490 ng/mL
in Alaska?
A: The nitrite result would be negative, as this level would not interfere
with Veritas’s urine testing process. The urine drug tests ordered would be conducted and
reported following standard operating procedures.

Why Drug Test in Alaska?
Whether you’re an Alaska business owner that wants to be sure that your employees are in an
unaltered state of mind on the job or an individual concerned about a loved one’s
well-being, a drug test can help ease your anxieties. Administering drug tests in Alaska regularly can help the individual of concern to stray away from illicit activities, can help
to identify drug use and/or dependency, and can ensure the safety of that individual and
those around them. Additionally, drug testing can be used in companies, courtrooms, and
divorcing spouses. However, there are many factors to consider when scheduling a drug test;
you must be sure that you choose an accredited laboratory that protects not only your
employees or the individual of concern, but yourself as well.
How Many Types in Alaska of Drug Tests Are There?
There are a few types of drug tests available in Alaska. The most common, an Alaska urine
drug test, requires a urine sample from the test subject in order to determine which drugs
are in their system. A urine drug test in Alaska can detect a number of drugs in one’s
system, however, some drugs may have different time spans when they’re able to be detected
in one’s urine. For example, THC, or, more commonly known as Marijuana, can be detected by a
urine test for up to 80 days after consumption. On the other hand, Cocaine can only be
detected from 2-4 days after consumption. The 14-panel urine test, the highest amount of
panels that Veritas Labs offers, detects Cocaine, Marijuana (THC), Opiates, Amphetamines,
Methamphetamines, Phencyclidine, Benzodiazepines, Barbiturates, Methadone, Tricyclic
Antidepressants, Oxycodone, Propoxyphene, Buprenorphine, and Ethanol.
Veritas Labs’ advanced technology offers our clients a Urine and Hair Follicle EtG
(Ethylglucuronide) test. An EtG test now allows you to test id someone is under the
influence of alcohol for up to after 80 hours after consumption. This test, which allows you
to catch someone lying about drinking long after the slurred speech and stench of booze has
subsided, is 5-8 times stronger than alcohol tests offered by other labs.
Another option for drug testing in Alaska is a hair follicle drug test, which uses about
1-1/2 inches of hair which is about 3 months’ growth. In order for a hair follicle test to
show positive, one would have to consume the given drug 3 times or more within the window of
the test. However, a hair follicle test cannot detect drug use within 4-10 days after
consumption. Veritas labs is pleased to offer 5-14 panel hair follicle test, performed by
only the most experienced and educated scientists in the field. Our 14 Panel Drug Tests
screen for Cocaine, Marijuana, Opiates, Amphetamines, Methamphetamines, Phencyclidine,
Benzodiapines, Barbiturates, Methadone, Oxycodone, Propoxyphene, Buprenorphine, and
MDMA.
Which Type of Drug Test Should I Get in Alaska?
The type of drug test depends on what your needs are. A urine test is great for random drug
testing, however, it can only detect the presence of drugs in one’s system for a limited
amount of time and it can be easy for a person to “detox” before a regularly scheduled drug
test. However, you can order a hair follicle test to follow up a urine test in order to
verify the results. Further, a hair follicle test is the best method to detect repeat drug
offenders and can help deter current employees from violating drug-free workplace
policies.

WHAT SUBSTANCES DOES VERITAS LAB TEST FOR?
Veritas Lab tests for 8 of the most commonly abused substances also known as street drugs. Those
substances are:

Amphetamines are a commonly abused drug. This drug is usually found in pill related drugs such as
Adderall and Ritalin. Most of these drugs are used to treat personality disorders such as ADD and
ADHD.
Amphetamines are seen usually in college campuses. The drug causes its user to stay energized and
“awake” throughout the process. It has a reputation among college students as a “study drug”.

Cocaine is dangerous because it is highly addicting drug. Users of cocaine undergo effects such as
rapid weight loss, psychological depression and a multitude of personality disorders.
The United States marks Cocaine as a Schedule II Drug. The drug is addictive and can
cause psychological disorders.
Opiates also known as heroin, codeine, morphine
Opiates are drugs used to create a euphoric feeling towards the user. However, use of opiates has
been known to cause an increasing number of high death rates throughout drug history.
They are known to range from a Schedule I Drug to a Schedule III despite having legal uses.
THC also known as marijuana cannabinoids, pot, weed
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is a drug that is often found within marijuana plants. The drug causes
anxiety and paranoid amongst its users. Marijuana does not have a high addiction level as cocaine.
However, repeated use of the drug is known to increase its negative effects.
Phencyclidine also known as PCP, angel dust
Phencyclidine (PCP) is a drug that is often used by stolen lab equipment. PCP often causes its user
to experience schizophrenia. Users of PCP will receive an “outer body” experience but place
themselves in harmful situations that can result in injury or death.
