How does it work?
You will receive an iGene DNA kit at home with which you can take a saliva DNA sample. You return the sample in the return envelope provided. Your DNA is then analysed in a medical laboratory and after 6 to 8 weeks your iGene Genetic Passport is ready. You can view the results with the iGene app or download them as a pdf report.
