DNA Paternity Test FAQs
DNA test checks specific genes or 'markers' on the DNA to determine if people are related to each other. It is a susceptible DNA testing procedure in forensic medicine. The DNA is extracted from the sample (IT can be blood/biological fluid), and its genetic code is copied at the marker points.
This test is based on obtaining a blood sample or a cheek swab. Either of these samples is taken from the suspected son and the father and then sent to a lab. The lab works on finding identical genetic sequences in the DNA of both individuals. If a pattern is found, then the relationship is established. The test takes up to 5 days to provide results.
Sample collection can be done at home or your nearest clinic. It depends on the type of sample to be taken. Most kits involve sampler swabs to aid in sample collection. In the case of a legal test, it must follow strict measures.
