PATERNITY TESTING
In paternity testing, we compare DNA areas which should be matching both in the child and in the father. If these areas match, father candidate is the biological father of the child but if they don’t, father candidate is not the biological father. In our laboratories, STR based paternity tests are performed based on biological samples (vinous blood, saliva, barba et al) from children and father candidates. For ethical reasons, this test is not performed on foetus (CVS, amniotic liquid, cord blood)
