I need responses from matured minds please. Thanks. Human DNA is distributed throughout the human body and in the same identical form.The DNA in the blood is the same as that in te skin,muscle bone,teeth,cheek lining and other tissues. The method used on you is the normal way of doing it..ie..collecting samples for paternity test.it is called Buccal Swab.it involves using cotton,sponge or dacron tip to collect the epithelial cells from the inside of your cheek. Sample doesnt have to be blood.The result will still be the same regardless of the source,blood,buccal,teeth etc. The reason buccal swab is used is because it is non-invasive and painless...lots of people are scared of needles,so its easier and more convenient to use the epithelial cells from the inside of your mouth. Sorry for the disappointment of your discovery. 15 Likes |

Am very scared of hw am goin to cope considering that am in my final year. Mouth swab is the standard method. It may be worthwhile repeating it to rule out errors associated with using the wrong samples. It is definitely a lot for your dad to handle but hopefully he will calm down soon and continue to view you as his daughter or atleast his adopted daughter. 1 Like |

@ OP If you don't trust the buccal swab, I'll advice you go for a confirmatory test (blood DNA test). Best of luck 1 Like |

Thanks. mouth swab is very reliable but it does not mean the particular one you had was reliable. where was it taken and can you try another test elsewhere to reconfirm? |

Am very scared of hw am goin to cope considering that am in my final year. Tell your dad that your biological father, whom you have no interest in knowing, is just a sperm donor and your real father is the person that has raised and loved you all his life, your dad. You will be surprised the difference you can make in this issue by letting your father know that you truly do not care about your biological father, if that's indeed the case. Being a father is more than just kick starting the conception of a baby. I’m sure your dad is hurting and probably feels betrayed by your mom but that’s really between the both of them and has nothing to do with you, especially since it seems you’re of age. Good luck! 26 Likes |

@op, DNA is DNA, anyone is reliable. No need for further testing, go and ask your mother she knows your biological father. |

Three of 10 men are not fathers of their ‘kids’, says DNA expert I think it is very reliable, there must have been a mix up, not necessarily intentional from your mom. |
