Mistake #4: Compromising the Sample Through Poor Handling
Poor sample handling is a common reason for inconclusive results. Collect the swab only when the person being tested has had no food or drink except water for 30 to 60 minutes.
Avoid these errors:
- Do not touch the swab tip.
- Let the swab air-dry before packaging it.
- Use the paper envelope provided, not plastic.
If a mouth swab is not possible, consider nails or toothbrush DNA viability studies, but handle those samples carefully as well.
Mistake #5: Assuming a "Peace of Mind" Result Is Legally Binding
A peace of mind test is for personal knowledge only. It is not valid for court, child maintenance, inheritance, or birth certificate changes.
How does legal testing differ?
- Verify identity.
- Collect samples under supervision.
- Send samples securely through chain of custody.
If legal use may matter later, choose a Legal DNA test from the start.
Mistake #6: Overlooking the Importance of DNA Marker Counts
DNA markers are the points in the genetic profile that scientists compare. More markers improve certainty. A reliable paternity test should usually assess 21 to 24 markers or more.
Low-marker testing can be less helpful in complex cases, especially where close relatives may be involved. That matters in cases such as sibling DNA testing.
Mistake #7: Choosing a Provider Without Real Human Support
Do not choose a provider that leaves you alone with a result sheet. Ask questions before you order. Confirm turnaround times. Confirm whether the test is legal or peace of mind. Call +442046204341 if you need guidance on grandparentage DNA testing or prenatal paternity testing.
