DNA Paternity FAQ - Genetic paternity testing
How accurate are the DNA test results?
DNA paternity testing is very accurate, and will yield results that
indicate either a probability of paternity greater than 99% (inclusion)
or 0% (exclusion). For siblingship and grand-parentage testing we
aim for a conclusive range of either >90% (inclusion) or <15%
(exclusion). - Genetic paternity testing by GeneTree™.
What if the two alleged fathers are related?
It is best to test both alleged fathers, especially if they are
related, so that one can be excluded. If only one alleged father
is available, then you must select the extended testing additional
service. The final report will have additional data and a likelihood
ratio calculated.
Is blood more accurate than cheek cells when testing for paternity?
No. Cheek cells collected using the GeneSwabs yield results with
the same accuracy as blood samples do. The DNA is the same; regardless
if it is collected from cheek cells or blood.
How soon after submitting my specimens will I have results?
For paternity tests GeneTree will provide a detailed and comprehensive
report 3-10 working days after receiving your specimens. Other tests,
such as a siblingship analysis, may take 4-6 weeks. For Express Processing
fees please call 1-888-404-4363.
What if my alleged father is deceased, can paternity still be established?
Yes. Paternity can still be established by testing other known family
members to reconstruct the DNA lineage. Aunts, uncles, cousins, siblings
and grandparents can all be used to reconstruct family relationships.
Please contact GeneTree for more specific information.
How old must the child be to have a paternity test performed?
There are no age limitations. The GeneSwab Specimen Collection kit
can be used on infants. Expectant mothers can learn about procedures/methods
available for prenatal paternity testing by calling 1-888-404-4363.
