Announcement posted by EasyDNA 01 Apr 2016
The launch of the test is in line
with the company’s mission of expanding its current portfolio of ancestry tests
in order to meet the current trends in this field of DNA testing. The demand
for ancestry testing services has risen steadily over the years as confirmed by
a company representative who stated, “Ancestry testing has become a big market
and generated interest across all strata of society. Many individuals want to trace
their roots and hone in on their geo-genetic ancestry. People want to find
links between their DNA and the geographical regions from which their ancient
ancestors originated. The BritishDNA
test is not just any generalized ancestry test – it a very niche
service which targets a small but specific and well-defined segment of our
client demographics”.
The latest DNA test provides
results which are divided into 7 sections; the fatherline which specifically
analyses a person’s paternal genetic heritage, the motherline which
specifically analyses a person’s maternal genetic heritage, a section known as
“All my ancestry” which gives a generalized ancestry overview linking the
individual’s DNA to geographical regions. Also included are 3 other sections
which are the baldness test, a DNA test which will indicate your genetic
propensity to hair loss, the blue eye genotype test, and the red head test, which
will show whether you carry any of the red hair gene variants often associated
with Britain. Samples are collected using a simple home sample collection kit
requiring just a spit sample from the interested party and results are ready in
8-10 weeks.
On a concluding note, EasyDNA states that “the search for your ancestry is the search for a part of your identity. This is a deep ancestry test that will enable clients to uncover the epic journey of their ancient ancestors from their origins to Britain’s s shores. It is a really unprecedented way of discovering your roots, specifically your British roots, giving you information that no traditional amount of ancestry research could reveal”.
