DNA Paternity Testing - Genetrack Biolabs Hong Kong

In some situations, only one grandparent is available for testing. When only one grandparent is tested, the missing alleged father’s genetic information cannot be fully reconstructed. In such situations, the laboratory will test the single grandparent and the grandchild and then compare their genetic information. Based on the type of genetic material expressed by each individual, the number of genes which are shared, and the pattern of expression of the genetic material, the laboratory will be able to perform a statistical analysis to generate the “grandparentage index”. If the grandparentage index is less than 1.00, this indicates that it is more likely that the grandparent and grandchild are not related. However, if the grandparentage index is greater than 1.00, this indicates that it is likely that the grandparent is biologically related to the grandchild.

This type of test is conducted when only one of the two grandparents is available for testing, and is not as powerful as testing both grandparents. Although there is a greater possibility when testing only one grandparent that a conclusive answer cannot be obtained, this test may be able to provide you with an indication of whether the grandparent is more likely to be or not to be the true biological grandparent of the child.
