Certified Molecular Diagnostics Collection centres: Abuja · Lagos · Kaduna
About DNA Labs Nigeria

Molecular diagnostics infrastructure built on medical accountability

We are a certified genetic diagnostic laboratory serving families, clinicians, courts and researchers across Nigeria — with physical laboratories and sample collection centres in Abuja, Lagos and Kaduna.

Our mission

Accurate genetics, honestly explained

DNA Labs Nigeria exists to make world-class genetic and molecular diagnostics genuinely accessible in Nigeria — with transparent Naira pricing, disciplined laboratory practice and clear, human explanations of what every result does and does not mean.

Genetic testing carries real consequences: for families establishing biological relationships, for expectant parents making prenatal decisions, for patients whose treatment depends on molecular findings, and for litigants whose cases depend on court-admissible evidence. We treat that responsibility seriously. Every report leaving our laboratory is reviewed by a certified medical doctor, and every article on this platform is reviewed before publication and on a scheduled re-review cycle.

We deliberately publish our prices, our turnaround times, our collection procedures and our limitations — because trust in diagnostics is earned through transparency, not marketing claims.
