first let me say i'm so sorry your granddaughter has been the victim of a sexual assault. i hope she (and all the family) get the counseling needed to get through this difficult time. to answer your question: performing dna testing on the warts would be of no value. dna testing is done to identify basically who a certain tissue belongs to. so for example you can dna test semen to determine who that semen belongs to. you can test blood to determine who the blood belongs to. but warts are made up of the person's own tissue. even if someone else gives you warts the warts themselves consist of your own tissue. a dna test would confirm this. it would not confirm who gave you the warts. i hope that makes sense and is helpful. i can certainly understand your family's desire to get all the facts in this case. again i hope your granddaughter heals and gets counseling to help her cope with this terrible situation.
can dna testing be done on genital warts? . my granchild was sexually assulted by a former boyfriend of my child the case is being reviewed at this time and we wanted to know if a dna test could be done on the warts to prove this former boyfriend was the one that passed this to my granddaughter. . thank you . . concerned grandmother and mother
