Notes: 

• We strongly encourage the mother to participate so we can account for one-half of the child’s genetic material, which she passed along to the child
• When testing one grandparent, always consider testing the grandmother in lieu of the grandfather if she is available. As with all paternity testing, the father (and the grandfather in this scenario) may be in question
• If the laboratory determines the results are inconclusive, they may suggest testing additional relatives. Future testing carries additional costs, so please contact your account manager with questions on pricing

There are two types of relationships that siblings can share: Full siblingship and Half siblingship. Full Siblings will share two common parents and Half Siblings will share just one common parent. A siblingship test provides the likelihood of genetic relationship between two possible siblings, specifically when no other relatives are available for study. Please note that a grandparentage or reconstruction test is more definitive than a siblingship test, especially if the mother is not involved.

Full Siblingship with a Common Parent Participating

A full siblingship test can be performed if the two individuals (Sibling 1, Sibling 2) know they share the same mother, but want to know if they share the same father (who is unavailable for testing).

Full Siblingship without a Common Parent Participating

We can perform a full siblingship test even if the mother is not available for testing. The mother’s participation is always encouraged for more conclusive results.

Half Siblingship with Two Parents (not in common) Participating

A half-siblingship test is performed if the two individuals (Sibling 1, Sibling 2) know they have different mothers but want to know if they share the same father (who is unavailable for testing).

Half Siblingship without Parents Participating

We can perform a half siblingship test even if one or both mothers are not available for testing. However, a mother’s participation is always encouraged for more conclusive results.
