Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Often when people purchase a DNA test they assume that all of their DNA has been tested. This is usually not true. Microarray DNA testing is what is done by Ancestry, 23andme, MyHeritage, FamilyTreeDNA, and Living DNA. With this method, the company individually selects 500,000-800,000 SNPs and only tests those. Although this is less than 1% of the base pairs that you have in your DNA, the SNP's are carefully selected and spread across the entire genome. It is accurate enough to identify your genetic relatives in the database as well as predict your traits and ethnicity. |
