X-Chromosome Testing
Each female has two X Chromosomes, one that was inherited from the mother and the other that was inherited from the father.
The X-Chromosome Test is most commonly used to determine if sisters with different mothers share the same father.
How Would you use an X-Chromosome Test?
- In a case where two females think they have the same father but are certain they have different mothers then through this test, if their X chromosome patterns match, it means that they do share the same father.
- In cases where two females share the same mother we can still participate in X chromosome testing but only if the mothers sample is available for testing. This way we can see the X pattern that was inherited or passed on from the mother and then compare the second X pattern that would have been passed on from the father.
