Grandparent Test. Useful information about it.
A DNA grandparentage test determines the relationship between a child, and the parents of the alleged father
In the grandparentage test, the DNA profile of the grandson or granddaughter must be compared with the DNA profiles of the biological parents of the alleged father. It turns out that the son inherits half of his DNA from the mother (maternal side), the paternal half should match the DNA transmitted by the presumed grandparents.To facilitate the analysis and guarantee the result with the greatest possible precision, the participation of the mother is always recommended, whenever possible.
Grandparentage tests without the mother's contest are much more complex, requiring extensive analysis that takes more time. However, it is also possible to carry out this test only with the participation of one of the grandparents, therefore, it is not necessary for both grandparents to be present to carry out the genetic test.
What should I do to take a grandparentage DNA test?
If you do not want to wait for the DNA kit with the swabs to arrive, you can make your own DNA kit at home with a few simple steps, quickly, and cheaply, thus reducing the time of sending and receiving the samples. and from the same kit. The saliva sample collection method is a much safer method than blood or another type of sample, and it is also much more precise and effective.
The result of the study can be used as evidence in legal instances or as valid documentation in the case of administrative procedures.Sampling is carried out in our center under the Chain of Custody process with the presence of the parties involved (in future articles we will talk about this and what you should know about DNA tests and their use).Notice the following:If the grandchildren or grandson is a minor (-18 years old) they must attend with their biological mother and the presumed grandfather.
- Results within 10 business days (we carry out a test and counter-test for best results).
