Interest in DNA testing after disclosure DJ Mattie

The interest in this DNA test is begun by the sensational disclosure of Qmusic DJ Mattie Falcon this week.

Early this year Valk said on the radio he would be a father.Monday, he said that the now born twins yet it is not his.

Apparently more people put thinking. In laboratories offering kinship testing, come the last days more calls from obviously worried father.

"It's a hot item," says Nathalie Raat Verilabs of Leiden. There, too, the phone is not standing still and are requested more testing than usual. "That's a celebrity that has happened has put more people thinking."

Holidays

If Mattie Falcon is not isolated according Raats. "I fear that the everyday practice. Especially after holidays, you see that there is more interest for the tests. Presumably parents sit over the table and come to light what they want to find out."

There are so many interests lies.

People who order a test be sent an envelope with cotton swabs. Therefore they have to collect cheek swab, both in their home as with a son or daughter. In the laboratory, the DNA profiles are on the basis of the sent rods determined and compared with each other.

It's not just fathers applications testing, but also mothers with multiple partners who are looking for security. And children who want to know whether their father and mother be real their biological parents.

The test gives a guarantee of 100 percent if there is a relationship, says Raats. "There are so many interests and so many lies. With a test you know it once and for all. The result can be painful, but it will eventually calm because you know how it is."
