DNA Testing

---

A non-legal DNA test is used for personal knowledge to confirm biological relationships like paternity, maternity, or siblingship. It’s done at home with a simple cheek swab and is not admissible in court since there’s no verified chain of custody.

Paternity DNA testing is a genetic test that uses DNA analysis to determine whether a man is the biological father of a child, by comparing the child's DNA to the alleged father's DNA. 

Maternity DNA testing is a genetic test that uses DNA analysis to determine whether a woman can be a child's biological mother. Maternity is determined by comparing the child's DNA with the DNA profile of the alleged mother.

Avuncular DNA testing determines if a child is biologically related to an aunt or uncle, usually to confirm the relationship to a missing or unavailable parent. It compares genetic markers to estimate the likelihood of a biological connection and can be done for personal or legal purposes.

Siblingship DNA testing is used to determine if two individuals are biologically related as full siblings, half-siblings, or not siblings at all. It compares their DNA to identify shared genetic markers. This test is often used when parents are unavailable for testing and can be done for either personal knowledge or legal reasons if proper procedures are followed.
