Definition:

A sibling is either a brother or sister. Siblings can be either full or half. Full siblings share the same mother and father. Half siblings may share a mother but have different fathers, or they may have the same father with different mothers.

When paternity testing is not possible, Identigene offers several DNA tests for siblingship. Siblings tests are only used when direct paternity testing is not an option.

Examples:
