The results of a DNA maternity test will reveal whether or not the tested alleged mother is the biological mother of the child.
A maternity test has two possible results, each of which is indicated by a Probability of Maternity value listed on the result report.
A Probability of Maternity of
99% or higher
means the alleged mother
is not excluded
as the biological mother of the child. DNA Diagnostics Centre routinely achieves probabilities well above 99.99% on maternity tests.
A Probability of Maternity of
0%
means the alleged mother
is excluded
as the biological mother of the child. In plain English, she is not the mother.
Your maternity test results will be ready approximately 5-7 business days after we receive all the required DNA samples in our laboratory. We can send your results by mail or fax; or, if you are taking a private maternity test, we can send your results by email.
