These skin cells are known as buccal cells, and they rub off easily onto cotton swabs and remain in place for analysis by our laboratory. Other specimen samples, such as hair follicles, fingernails, and garments that might contain someone's DNA, can also be tested.

Establishing paternity in Palm Coast, FL

To legally establish the biological father, paternity must be defined, especially if the parents were unmarried when the child was born. In Palm Coast, Florida, paternity can be established through court order or voluntarily. If both parents agree and have no reason to question paternity, they can sign the Acknowledgment of Paternity at the hospital after the child is born.

However, in some cases, the mother may be uncertain about the father's identity or the alleged father may deny paternity. In these situations, many people decide to establish paternity through the court. The judge may order a DNA test, a reliable and painless way to establish paternity. The certified laboratory tests the samples and sends the results to the judge, who can then establish paternity.

Palm Coast, Florida: Benefits of establishing paternity
