25 mins confidence:  quiddité indienne proportionalité du caractère génétique
Explanation:
quiddité = nature, essence
Its the term used by the Canadian governement.
"Proportionalité..." is a suggestion that bears in mind the tone you seek. I could not find anything close to "blood quanta" (which probably means "half-indian/quarter-indian/..."). Its probably an American term.

Blood quantum is \"degré de sang\". See the links below from Canada:

I know that it is required to have one quarter Indian blood to be considered a native American.
