SIBLING DNA TESTING
ANSWERS THAT STRENGTHEN FAMILY CONNECTIONS.
At Palmetto Compliance & Testing, our Sibling DNA Testing service helps determine whether two individuals share one or both biological parents by analyzing genetic markers to evaluate the probability of a biological sibling relationship.
WHAT IS SIBLING DNA TESTING?
Sibling DNA Testing determines whether two individuals are biologically related as full siblings (sharing both biological parents) or half siblings (sharing one biological parent).
FULL VS. HALF SIBLING TESTING
A full-versus-half sibling test compares the DNA of two individuals who share the same biological mother to determine how likely it is that they also share the same alleged father.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MATERNAL DNA
For the most accurate and conclusive results, we highly recommend including the biological mother’s DNA. This helps the laboratory identify which genetic markers are inherited from the mother and which were contributed by the alleged father, significantly strengthening the accuracy and conclusiveness of the results.
DIFFERENT MOTHERS?
Sibling testing can also be performed for two individuals who have different biological mothers to help determine whether they share the same biological father. For the most reliable results, DNA samples for both mothers are strongly recommended. If there are undisputed siblings available their DNA may also assist in strengthening the analysis.
SIMPLE & NON-INVASIVE COLLECTION
The collection process is simple, painless, and non-invasive, typically involving a cheek (buccal) swab from each participant. All samples are collected and handled using professional procedures to ensure accuracy, confidentiality, and proper specimen handling.
ACCURATE LABORATORY ANALYSIS
Once specimens are collected, they are securely submitted to an accredited laboratory for advanced DNA analysis under strict quality control standards. Results are carefully reviewed and delivered confidentially within the standard laboratory turnaround timeframe.
STANDARD TESTING TYPICALLY INCLUDES:
2 ALLEGED SIBLINGS
DNA samples are collected from both individuals to analyze their genetic relationship.
1 MOTHER (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR INCREASED ACCURACY)
Including the mother’s DNA significantly improves the accuracy and conclusiveness of the results.
