About this file
This document is a vendor profile for DNA Labs International, a private forensic DNA testing laboratory that has partnered with the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office since 2007. DNA Labs International is a woman and family-owned business founded in 2004 and operates locations in South Florida and Utah with over 115 employees. The company provides comprehensive forensic DNA testing services including autosomal STRs, X-STRs, Y-STRs, mitochondrial DNA, SNPs, and Forensic Investigative Genetic Genealogy (FIGG). The laboratory is accredited for forensic testing in accordance with ANAB ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and FBI Quality Assurance Standards, with current accreditation valid through 2026. DNA Labs International offers specialized services including STRmix expert software analysis (validated for mixtures up to five people), SPENTSHELL analysis for fired cartridge casings, M-Vac wet vacuum DNA collection, whole genome sequencing using multiple technologies including the latest Astrea kit, and proprietary bone and degraded tissue protocols capable of recovering DNA from samples with degradation indices exceeding 1,000.
The vendor profile emphasizes DNA Labs International's technological capabilities and market position as the only private laboratory offering the complete combination of SPENTSHELL, STRmix analysis, and in-house M-Vac services. The company maintains the Combined International DNA Database (CIDD) containing over 80,000 crime scene profiles available to partner agencies for interagency hit analysis. The profile highlights specialized expertise in processing challenging samples including bones, cremated remains, formalin-fixed tissues, and early fetal remains, with documented success recovering DNA from historical samples dating to the 1800s. The document does not specify pricing, contract terms, renewal options, set-asides, or funding sources.

Partnering with the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office since 2007
DNA Labs International is a private, woman and family-owned DNA laboratory accredited for forensic testing in accordance with ANAB ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and FBI Quality Assurance Standards with locations in South Florida and Utah.
We are celebrating over 20 years supporting law enforcement agencies processing forensic casework. Founded in 2004, DNA Labs International is run by a mother-daughter team. We are committed to delivering exceptional quality service based on open communication, meticulous attention to every case, and accurate, reliable results. It is our mission to provide the latest forensic technologies, including Forensic Investigative Genetic Genealogy, SPENTSHELL® for fired cartridge casings, the M-Vac, a wet vacuum DNA collection tool, and STRmix, a software program that can resolve previously inconclusive DNA results.
We are one of the largest private labs with over 115 people here to support you. We partner with thousands of agencies throughout the US, Canada, Caribbean Nations, and Asia.
ANAB ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and FBI QAS Forensic DNA Testing Laboratory
August 19, 2025 Valid until 2026
Over 20 years of experience as an ANAB-accredited forensic testing laboratory following all three:
ISO 17025:2017
FBI QAS
ANAB-specific standards
DNA Labs International is the most experienced laboratory in the US with STRmix expert software analysis and has validated it for use with all commercially available STR kits. We are one of the only labs across the US that has validated the STRmix software for mixtures with up to a maximum of 5 people.
Partnering with DNA Labs International allows your agency access to our local DNA database, the Combined International DNA Database (CIDD). With over 80,000 profiles collected from crime scenes, CIDD has provided many agencies with interagency hits that help connect crimes.
We are the only private lab that offers the SPENTSHELL® method, STRmix analysis, and utilizes the M-Vac in-house. The combination of these technologies gives your agency an extreme advantage to solve your case.
DNA Labs International is the only private lab to offer a full suite of ultra-sensitive DNA testing with next generation sequencing. We can offer all STRs (autosomal, X, and Y-STRs), mitochondrial DNA, SNPs, and Forensic Investigative Genetic Genealogy (FIGG).
FIGG TESTING FOR GENEALOGY OF UNIDENTIFIED HUMAN REMAINS
We also offer three SNP technologies for UHR & FIGG testing:
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) using the NovaSeq 6000 ForenSeq Kintelligence on the MiSeq FGx, and SNP array testing on the iScan.
In 2024 we implemented the latest WGS - Astrea kit, which delivers results when other WGS methods have failed. This kit is tailored for the worst and most challenging samples, such as bones and hair. We are often called upon to use this kit for cases previously rejected for WGS testing. There have been many improvements since WGS began only a few years ago.
It is important and our priority to keep up with what achieves the best results with these precious samples.
Bones & Tissue - We offer the leading proprietary bone protocol in the industry, enabling us to achieve results from even the most degraded bone samples. Our analysts have successfully obtained results from bones dating back to the 1800s and cremated and burned remains.
Our scientists are expertly trained to identify fetal tissue among products of conception, employing microscopy to detect early fetal remains as early as six weeks.
Our specialized techniques maximize the likelihood of obtaining results from formalin-fixed tissues, cremated remains, fingernails, and toenails. By integrating our exclusive extraction methods with a fully in-house FIGG workflow, we have successfully retrieved results from samples with a degradation index exceeding 1,000.
