Through a DNA Grandparentage Test, the biological parents of the alleged father can be tested to the child to determine if there is a biological relationship. When undertaking such a test, it is strongly recommended that both grandparents are tested in order to strengthen the results. However, the test can also be performed with only one grandparent. Normally, we also recommend that the sample of the other parent (normally the Mother) is included.
Two Types of Grandparentage Tests Offered
Ideally, one should opt for the testing of both grandparents in a duo grandparentage test. The possibility to analyze both their DNAs will make it easier to reconstruct the alleged father’s DNA. Once the alleged father’s DNA profile has been determined, it is then a matter of comparing it with that of the child. In this kind of test, as mentioned, we recommend providing the mother’s DNA alongside that of the grandparents as this will strengthen the results.
The second option is the one to choose should one of the grandparents not be available for testing. The single grandparentage test makes it more difficult to fully draw up the alleged father’s genetic blueprint. The mother’s DNA sample is useful to have in such a situation. This test should nevertheless help determine whether there is a biological relationship between the grandparents and the child.
The Grandparentage test is priced from €389. Results are available via email in 5-7 working days from the receipt of samples at the laboratory. Contact our customer service team to discuss your relationship DNA testing case.
