Use these charts to select
the Forensic Biology or DNA Sample Specific tests
that best meet your needs.


The Forensic Biology Series and DNA Sample Specific Series are scheduled so that participants can choose tests from either series to meet the DNA Advisory Board (DAB) / FBI Quality Assurance Standards (QAS) test frequency requirements; for example, test 573 or 583 can be paired with 576 or 586. The two series also provide additional testing options for those laboratories that would like more diversity in testing, or are conducting peer reviews. Please refer to the chart titled Analysis Types Available by Test to determine if these alternate pairings will meet your laboratory's needs.
