We will send you a clinically sterile home saliva test with which you will gently brush the inside of your cheek.

After you send the sample back to us, we will analyse it in our laboratories and send you, by email, your individual mtDNA sequence (diagnostic stretches of HV1 and HV2), a list of matches with tribal and linguistic information, a world map displaying the geographic locations of your distant mtDNA cousins, and your estimated matriline (also known as Haplogroup or Daughter of Eve).

Many clients have already obtained their mtDNA sequence from other genetic services and may desire a follow-up analysis using our scientific database.

In this option, you could provide us your mtDNA HV1 and/or HV2 sequence in the following order pages, and we will perform a database search of your mtDNA profile.

The output results are a list of matches with tribal information and a map of geographic matches as described in option A, which we will email to you. More Information
