Understanding Paternity DNA Testing
A paternity DNA test is a highly accurate genetic analysis that determines the biological relationship between a father and a child. Using advanced STR (Short Tandem Repeat) profiling, the test compares specific genetic markers to confirm or exclude paternity with 99.99% accuracy for inclusions and 100% for exclusions. DNA Labs India, an ISO 9001 certified laboratory, offers both legal and peace-of-mind paternity testing in Jaipur, Rajasthan.
How Paternity Testing Works
The test analyzes 24 to 46 STR markers (depending on the test type) from DNA extracted from the samples. These markers are highly variable among individuals, making them ideal for relationship testing. The laboratory follows strict chain-of-custody protocols for legal tests, ensuring results are admissible in court.
Note: For legal cases, samples must be collected at an authorized collection center with proper identification and documentation. Peace-of-mind tests can be done at home using our self-collection kit.
Types of Paternity Tests Offered
DNA Labs India provides several paternity testing options to suit different needs:
- Peace of Mind Paternity Test: For personal knowledge; no legal validity. Samples can be collected at home.
- Legal Paternity Test: Chain-of-custody maintained; admissible in court for child support, custody, inheritance, and immigration.
- Paternity Test for 1 Father + 2 Children: Ideal for cases involving multiple children.
- Non-Standard Sample Test: Uses nails, hair, or other unusual samples for privacy.
