Maternal DNA Testing
What is Maternal DNA Testing?
Maternal DNA Testing is a likelihood test used to establish whether a woman is the biological mother of a child or not. As a child inherits half of its DNA from both parents, this test accurately identifies and establishes the biological relationship between a child and the alleged mother. Similar to a paternity test, this process compares the child’s DNA with that of the alleged mother, shedding light on the likelihood of inherited DNA.
