WHAT IS DNA TESTING?
The chance that any two individuals on the planet share the same genetic code is incredibly slim, at just 1 in 6 billion. This means that, scientifically, you are indeed one of a kind! The only way to unveil the unique genetic blueprint of an individual is through DNA analysis. Since its inception in the late 1970s, DNA testing has evolved significantly. Today, people opt for DNA testing for various purposes; among the most prevalent DNA tests are those intended to establish paternity and other familial relationships.
Paternity, relationship, and forensic testing are some of the most commonly requested procedures. Mobile Drug & DNA offer a range of testing options to help satisfy whatever questions you might have. If you aren’t sure what test you need, don’t hesitate to contact us and speak with a professional.
HOW TO CHOOSE A DNA COMPANY?
When selecting a DNA testing company, accreditation stands out as the foremost consideration. Choosing a company that holds at least an ISO 17025 accreditation standard is important to ensure accurate results and expert service. For those in Australia, NATA accreditation is equally vital. These accreditations signify adherence to rigorous criteria, operation of a quality management system, and technical proficiency among staff.
Once you’ve identified a company meeting your accreditation criteria, explore their test offerings to select the ones suited to your needs. If you require clarification on any test or assistance in choosing the right one, reaching out to the company for guidance is recommended.
HOW TO DO THE TEST?
Depending on the test, there may be a number of ways to provide a DNA sample for analysis. Some tests utilise home test kits, conveniently delivered to your chosen address. These kits include all of the essentials for conducting the test at home, comprising oral swabs, detailed instructions, and guidance on sample collection, storage, and return shipment to the lab.
Alternatively, certain DNA tests necessitate a medical blood draw, akin to providing a blood sample at a pathology lab. The DNA test you order will include clear and specific instructions for how to proceed, but if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
HOW TO INTERPRET THE RESULTS?
Interpreting the results of a DNA test can prove challenging at times. The abundance of numbers, unfamiliar jargon, and the emotional weight of the situation can lead to frustration. In a DNA paternity test, there are two potential outcomes:
- Exclusion – This outcome signifies that the tested individual is NOT the biological parent. A paternity exclusion suggests that the tested man isn’t the true biological father of the child. When a paternity exclusion is confirmed, the probability of paternity is 0%.
- Inclusion – This outcome confirms that the tested individual IS ACCEPTED as the biological parent, as the report states NOT EXCLUDED. The resulting analysis figure reflects a result that the test participants are 99% likely to be related.
