A DNA test is an implementation of DNA. Every person and animal
has DNA, and technology allows us to test DNA for a number of
things. We can use DNA to determine predisposition to disease. A
DNA test can be used to determine your ancestry. One of the most
common uses for a DNA test is to determine close family
relationships, specifically paternity and siblingship.
The uses for a DNA test are increasing everyday and will
continue to do so. Throughout this website, we'll discuss the
current uses for relationship DNA testing.
Paternity Testing
A paternity test is the most accurate way of proving the
biological relationship between a father and a child. In order to
complete a paternity test, DNA samples must be collected from a
potential father and a potential child. The child's mother is not
needed for the test, but including the mother does improve the
conclusiveness of the result. Depending on your situation, you may
choose from a variety of paternity testing options.
Legal Paternity Test
A legal paternity test is one which can be used for legal
purposes. Examples of reasons to purchase a legal paternity test
are;
DNA test for child support
DNA test for child custody
DNA test for a birth certificate change
DNA test for a visa
Home Paternity Test
A home paternity test is one which can be used only for
peace of mind, as it is not legally admissible. Dozens of companies
offer DNA test home kits, and many of them are not as accurate as
legal paternity tests.
