If the DNA patterns between mother, child, and the alleged father match on every DNA probe, the likelihood of paternity is 99.9 percent. To conduct DNA testing, either a blood test known as Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) or a procedure called a Buccal scrap is used.
In the past, people used a blood test. This might rule out that you were the father but couldn't prove that you were. Nowadays, DNA technology is used to figure out who is the father of a child. DNA paternity testing makes it possible to determine a child's biological father to a very high degree of certainty. Everyone, except identical twins, has a unique set of DNA. DNA is made up of 4 bases or letters, A, C, G, and T. These 4 letters form the written code that makes up the DNA sequence.
