Is the judicial paternity test accurate?
At present, appraisal institutions usually use DNA paternity method to judge the paternity, that is, according to the DNA typing information of genetic markers (such as STR loci) of parents and offspring, and through the idea of likelihood ratio test in statistics, it is speculated whether there is paternity between the disputed father and son. DNA paternity is internationally recognized as the most accurate and scientific method to identify consanguinity, with an accuracy rate of nearly 100%. Therefore, the appraisal result can be fully confirmed.
However, it should be noted that the accuracy of the recognition results will also be affected by some factors. Poor sample collection quality and nonstandard experimental process may lead to errors and deviations in the identification results. Therefore, when choosing an appraisal institution, we must choose a formal and professional paternity testing institution.
