Maternity Tests

Maternity DNA testing determines whether a woman could be the biological mother of a child. Much like a paternity test, it compares a child’s DNA 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 prove biological relationships in an immigration case.
• To resolve situations in which mothers or hospital staff suspect that a baby mix-up has occurred in the nursery
