Paternal Testing
These tests can be done after the first nine weeks of pregnancy. What are the benefits of prenatal paternity testing? These tests analyze cell-free fetal DNA, which is found in the maternal blood, which means there is no chance of misdiagnosis or incorrect results.
This technique means that testing is extremely accurate and reliable. Other tests use nucleated fetal cells, which may provide a less accurate reading. A blood sample is collected from the mother and not taken from the baby.
