Abstract
Using HLA tissue typing as the basic genetic test along with ABO and haptoglobin typing, it is generally possible either to exclude a putative father conclusively or, in non-exclusion cases, to assign a greater than 95% probability of paternity. In 22 of 53 non-exclusion cases, the putative father had a probability of paternity above 99% based on these genetic tests.
