Paternalink Avuncular Test (Uncle/Aunt-Nephew/Niece)
The Paternalink Avuncular Test assesses the biological relationship between a child and their potential paternal uncle or aunt. This is particularly important when direct paternity testing is not possible. A sample from the alleged father’s full sibling is analyzed alongside the child’s DNA to establish or refute a biological connection.
For more accurate results, we recommend the inclusion of the mother’s DNA sample in the test.
Situations where Paternalink Avuncular Test can be used.
The Paternalink Avuncular Test is particularly useful when:
- Alleged Father Unavailable: Ideal for cases where the alleged father is absent, unwilling, or unable to participate in a DNA test.
- Posthumous Paternity Testing: Useful when the alleged father is deceased, and no biological samples are available.
- Legal and Custody Disputes: Provides crucial biological relationship information for custody or inheritance cases (Note: COC procedures required for any judiciary use).
- Genealogical Interests: Assists individuals in exploring their paternal lineage or confirming family connections.
- Adoption and Family Reunification: Helps adopted individuals or those seeking to reconnect with paternal relatives.
- Sibling Relationship Confirmation: Offers clarity for siblings curious about their shared paternal lineage.
