A standard paternity test is used to prove father-child relationship conclusively. If the alleged father is not related to the child biologically then paternity test result probability should be 0% and more than 99.9% if he is biologically related to the child. If the mother of the child is willing to participate in the test, then it helps to exclude half of the DNA of child inherited from her. It makes data analysis easier. But it is not essential if the mother is unable to participate, a motherless paternity test can be carried out which is also conclusive and equally accurate. The legal paternity test follows a strict chain of procedures to make it legally admissible. It is used as an evidence for inheritance, child support, immigration, adoption, or social welfare benefits. Some of the parents choo...

Genealogical DNA testing is used to determine your family history, ancestral make-up or the country of origin. What Is DNA? Everyone’s DNA structure is unique and it is formed by 46 chromosomes at the time of conception. It may similar for identical twins but not for anyone else. Once formed, it won’t change throughout the life. Each individual carries a special genetic molecule called as mitochondrial DNA and Maternity DNA test (mtDNA) which is inherited entirely from mother’s side. DNA test contains an analysis of mtDNA or Y-chromosome which is exclusively inherited from a biological father in case of a male child. What Is Genealogical Testing? A genealogical DNA test inspects the nucleotides at specific locations for genetic genealogy purposes on a person's DNA. It is not carried out to collect informative medical value nor a genetic disease or disorder. It is meant to provide only genealogical or personal ancestry information. It is carried out using cheek...
