A DNA paternity test is a highly accurate scientific method used to determine whether a man is the biological father of a child. Every individual carries a unique genetic code, inherited equally from both parents—50% from the mother and 50% from the father.
By comparing specific regions of DNA between the alleged father and the child, this test can confirm or exclude a biological relationship with a very high degree of certainty.
At AKW, we use advanced genetic analysis techniques to ensure precise, reliable, and confidential results for every test.
While DNA testing is extremely reliable for confirming biological relationships, it does not provide:
To perform a DNA paternity test, samples are typically required from:
Even without the mother’s sample, highly accurate results can still be obtained.
The process involves two main stages:
DNA is usually collected using a simple and painless cheek swab. This method is quick, non-invasive, and widely accepted.
i) A soft swab is rubbed inside the cheek to collect cells
ii) Samples are placed in special envelopes for safe transport
iii) Adults can collect samples for children or infants
iv) In rare cases, blood samples may be used, though cheek swabs are equally reliable
Once the samples reach the lab:
i) DNA is extracted from the collected cells
Specific genetic markers (STR markers) are analyzed
ii) The child’s DNA is compared with the alleged father’s DNA
iii) A probability of paternity is calculated
If the genetic markers match, the probability of paternity is typically 99.99% or higher. If they do not match, the result is 0%, meaning the man is not the biological father.
