DNA Banking:
For any genetic disorder, DNA will be extracted from a 10-20cc blood sample and banked frozen or long-term lymphoblastoid lines can be established and kept in liquid-nitrogen.

Paternity Testing:
Samples which can be used include blood, CVS, amniocytes or archived tissue. Cheek swabs can be used for infants.
