blood test
A test to determine physical condition. A test of paternity; a test of special value in a case of disputed paternity because, although it cannot indicate with precision that a particular person is the father of the child whose paternity is in issue, in many instances it can establish that an alleged father could not have been the sire. Anno: 46 ALR2d 1003 § I(b). See microspectroscopic blood test.
