Decoding DNA

via google

It’s almost amazing that in this day and age, we now have the science right at our fingertips, which would have seemed almost magical in years past. In order to take a test, you first purchase a kit. Most companies sell DNA ancestry kits for around $100-$200. Inside the kit, the company sends a vial in which you have to provide a sample of your saliva. Yikes!

While many people have said it seems as though it seems like a lot of salivae to provide, others say it’s only in order to ensure the companies are able to get the most reliable read possible.
