What is DNA Paternity Testing?
With the exception of identical twins, every person has very unique geneticcode
identified by DNA (deoxyribonucleic Acid) found in each cell in the body. Based on
the fact that we inherit half of our DNA from our father and half from our mother,
DNA samples are tested to disprove or prove the relationship between a child and
an alleged father. The child's genetic profile is then compared to the profiles of the
mother and alleged father. A statistical analysis is performed to calculate the
probability of paternity.
How accurate are the results?
Paternity laboratory inspection is not mandatory; therefore, there is a wide range of
quality among DNA laboratories and the test results they provide. DNA Transports
laboratories are a fully accredited laboratory, which means they undergo rigorous
inspections and adhere to the strictest of procedures, in order to provide you with
the most accurate results available anywhere.
Can the test results be used in court?
Yes, they can. The “Legal” paternity test follows all the rules and regulations to
make those results admissible in all 50 states.
Who needs to be tested?
Typically, a sample is collected from the mother child and alleged father.The mother
only needs to be tested if the results need to be in court or if there is some question
about her parentage.
