DDC Laboratories India Sibling-ship DNA Test - Help in Sibling Search When you are not sure whether you share a parent or two with an individual, in such a case, sibling-ship DNA testing helps in determining the likelihood that they are related biologically as siblings by calculating the statistical probability that the parties share the same two parents, one parent, or no parent at all. Sibling-ship DNA test results are best related in terms of probability and can fall anywhere between 0% and 99.9999%. The higher the percentage, the more likely the tested individuals are related; however, some results may be inconclusive. In a sibling DNA test, the degree of certainty that can be achieved depends upon who is available for testing as well as the specific type of sibling relationship being tested. As a general rule, the more genetic information available, the higher the chance the test will be conclusive. DDC Laboratories India analyses two types of DNA Sibling-ship Tests for DNA samples: 

Half-Sibling-ship DNA tests: In this case, two individuals share 25% of their genes from only one biological parent in common.



Full-Sibling-ship DNA tests: In this case, two individuals share the same (50%) biological parents.
