Maternity Testing

A maternity test is a DNA test that determines whether a woman could be the biological
mother of a child. Like a paternity test, it compares a child’s DNA pattern with that of the
alleged mother to determine how likely it is that the child has inherited the DNA from the
alleged mother.

Maternity test results may be used in the following circumstances:
To confirm that an adoptee has been reunited with his/her birth mother

To confirm that an embryo conceived through in vitro fertilization was
implanted into the correct mother

To resolve situations in which mothers or hospital staff suspect that a
baby mix-up has occurred in the nursery
In a maternity test, the child, alleged mother, and biological father are tested.
The father’s participation in the maternity test helps to exclude half of the
child’s DNA, leaving the rest for comparison with the alleged mother. If the
father is not available, we can perform a fatherless test, which involves
additional analysis, without additional charge.
