What is a non-invasive prenatal paternity test?

An advanced prenatal paternity test offers a non-invasive solution to establish paternity even before the baby's birth. During the mother's pregnancy, the baby's DNA profile is extracted from freely circulating fetal DNA present in the mother's blood sample. This profile is then compared to the DNA of the potential father, which is collected through a straightforward mouth swab. In cases where obtaining a mouth swab is not feasible, alternative samples like fingernail clippings, cigarette butts, ear swabs, and more can also be processed for the potential father's DNA. Subsequently, a comprehensive report is generated to determine whether the tested individual is biologically the father or not.

Q&A Section

How does a prenatal paternity test work?

The test extracts the baby's DNA from the mother's blood sample, comparing it to the potential father's DNA collected through a mouth swab or alternative samples.

Costs vary based on options. Legal tests range from $1599 to $1749, while non-legal tests are priced at $1499.

What does “non-invasive” mean?

Non-invasive means the test poses no risk to the mother or fetus. It involves a blood draw from the mother and a cheek swab from the potential father.

How early in the pregnancy can a non-invasive prenatal paternity test be performed?

The test can be performed as early as the 7th week of pregnancy.

Is the non-invasive prenatal paternity test safe?

Yes, it is completely safe for both the mother and the fetus, avoiding the risks associated with traditional invasive methods.

Will a previous pregnancy affect the outcome of a test?

No, the test focuses on the current pregnancy, and previous pregnancies do not impact the results.

Can a prenatal paternity test be performed if the possible fathers are related?

Yes, the test can differentiate between closely related individuals.

Can a non-invasive prenatal paternity test be performed if the mother is pregnant with twins?

No, current technology does not permit the lab to isolate each fetus's profile separately.
