Description
A maternity DNA test can be useful in several situations, including:
- When a child is conceived through in vitro fertilisation (IVF) and the parent(s) would like to confirm that the correct embryo was implanted in the woman’s uterus
- When an adopted child and mother are reunited after years of separation and would like to confirm their biological relationship
- When there are concerns that baby switching has mistakenly occurred within a hospital
The DNA samples are analysed and compared to determine whether or not the individuals share enough DNA to verify a biological relationship.
For a DNA test to be valid in a court of law the test must be performed by a professional and a strict chain of custody must be maintained.
ALL SAMPLES ARE TESTED IN THE UK BY A UKAS AND MINISTRY OF JUSTICE ACCREDITED LABORATORY
