Finding out about pregnancy is a hugely emotional experience for any woman. Various reactions can be elicited, from joy to shock, concern, and everything in between. During pregnancy, every woman knows that she may experience a whole spectrum of emotions & many contradictory ones due to the sudden surge of hormones. These emotions can be amplified when a woman has uncertainty about the paternity of her baby. For women in this tough situation, the Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity DNA Test offers a solution to this problem that can remove the uncertainty & stress at what should be a happy time. Stress Vs. DNA Test While Pregnant We know innately that stress during pregnancy might not be healthy, but now there's proof. According to the study conducted by the University of Zurich, long-term high-stress levels during pregnancy could contribute to a child developing both physical & mental issues. These conditions range from ADHD to cardiovascular diseases. When someone is ver...

DNA is an abbreviation for DeoxyriboNucleic Acid. It encodes genetic information necessary for the functioning & development of the organisms. In eukaryotes (humans, animals, & plants), DNA is stored in the nucleus and in some organelles (mitochondria or chloroplasts). While prokaryotes (bacteria) store it in their cytoplasm. This double helix model holds the genetic makeup of every human and can be used to trace their ancestry and ethnicity. While DNA has many benefits, a striking area of importance is its usefulness for profiling or what is known as DNA fingerprinting. DNA Profiling is a molecular technique used to collect genetic information about the individual for parentage testing, criminal and forensic investigations. DNA fingerprinting history began with Sir Alec Jeffrey's discovery of the minisatellite DNA in 1984. Methods Used for DNA Profiling How does DNA profiling work? Our chromosomes contain markers in the DNA sequence that repeat multiple times. The number ...

DNA testing is the most accurate and scientific way of solving relationship disputes and can confirm whether two or more persons are biologically related to each other or not. Any relationship tests, such as paternity testing or maternity testing, are usually done for peace of mind. Nonetheless, there are occasions when DNA testing may be intended for legal purposes. Legal DNA tests in India have been used extensively for property and marital disputes, child custody matters, inheritance issues, and several other cases. Types of Legal DNA Tests Legal DNA Tests in India or a court-admissible DNA test require a chain-of-custody. "Chain-of-custody" refers to conducting the sample collection in the presence of an honorable judge or an authorized person appointed by the judge/court under government standards. The following court-admissible tests are provided: Paternity DNA Test Maternity DNA Test Paternity Trio DNA Test Siblingship DNA Test Organ Transplant DNA Tes...

A person receives their DNA from both parents. It serves as a reliable means of biological identification of a person and establishing the biological relationship between two or more people. A DNA Maternity Test establishes the biological relationship between a child or an adult person with their alleged mother.  The procedure of a Maternity Test For a Maternity Test , first, the DNA samples from each of the parties are taken. Buccal swabs are used to collect the epithelial cells from the cheeks. Buccal swabs are easy to carry, store and have a greater shelf life before they can be used. You can also give fingernails, hairs, etc. However, these samples may need viability testing to check if the samples have usable DNAs for the test.  Following the sample collection, the DNA is extracted from cells and broken down into smaller fragments called a Short Tandem Repeat (STR). STRs are less complex than the billion base-pair long complete DNA molecule, but not enough for a ...

Cell line authentication is a vital research tool. It is essential in fields like medicine, cell biology, genetics, vaccine development, etc. STR (short tandem repeat) profiling is the preferred method for human cell line authentication . The STR analysis helps in detecting misidentified and cross-contaminated cells in a cell line. In addition, the technique compares multiple STR markers between multiple cellular genomes. Why is Cell Line Authentication required? Tissue culture cells are crucial for scientific research in many laboratories. However, many of these cells are misidentified or contaminated with other cells. Thus, cell line authentication is important to save the loss of money and time due to such misidentified or cross-contaminated cell lines. The process is now recommended by the National Institutes of Health and many journals.  Cell Line Authentication is typically done: •             Before startin...

Every year, thousands of people apply for an immigration visa in India in the hope of reuniting with their families. Especially people who are dependent on their blood relatives living abroad seek to settle with them. Many succeed, while many don’t due to visa rejection. In a case where the consular office may find the primary documents unable to prove the applicant's genetic relationship with his/her sponsor, the visa gets rejected, and the applicant may have to get an Immigration DNA Test before reapplying. Many labs offer DNA testing for immigration purposes; however, a lab/company that provides accredited Immigration DNA test services must be preferred. Process of an Immigration DNA Test Many nations have already adopted it, and many are gradually mandating the provision of relationship-based DNA testing for immigration purposes . An Immigration DNA Test is done in the following steps: 1. The applicant goes to a lab or books an immigration DNA test online. 2. An authorized col...
