DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA), but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA). Mitochondria are structures within cells that convert the energy from food into a form that cells can use.
Getting an accurate result for this test is of the utmost importance to us. We recommend that you include the biological mother of a child in your test as we can accurately determine which DNA markers have been inherited from the mother and which markers relate to the alleged father. Also, we will test the mother’s DNA for free as it improves the accuracy of the result. As mentioned, a motherless paternity test can be undertaken. But you must be aware of the decrease in the statistical percentage.
