A grand parentage DNA test is a valuable tool for establishing or denying a biological relationship between grandparents and grandchildren. When the alleged father is unavailable for paternity testing, this test can provide crucial evidence of familial connections.
Legal Grand parentage Testing
To establish a legally recognized grandparent-grandchild relationship, a chain-of-custody process is essential. This involves supervised sample collection by a qualified professional. Typically, buccal swabs are collected, but blood samples are also accepted. The results of a legal grandparentage test are admissible in court and can be used for various legal purposes.
It's important to note that involving both alleged grandparents in the testing process can increase the accuracy of the results. If the primary goal is to verify the child's motherhood, additional testing might be necessary.
