DNA Archiving Kit We offer this kit for security-minded individuals who wish to collect and store a personal DNA sample in the event it may ever be needed for identification purposes. A clean, stable DNA specimen can be used for any Human Identification DNA test, including mitochondrial DNA. Why keep such a sample? In the event someone has gone missing, has been involved in a disaster or some other accident or other catastrophic event. In past events, people had scrambled to find hair brushes, fingernail clipping, clothing and other items that might contain residual DNA to be used for identification. This kit will give you a clean, stable, readily-available DNA sample that can be used for unambiguous DNA identification. The sample can be used to provide a match for ANY type of DNA test used for identification, including MITOCHONDRIAL DNA. For how long is the DNA sample stable? The DNA sample is stable for 15-20 or more years. Why not just get a DNA profile performed? Well, you can do that, but we do not recommend it. It will cost you money and may not be useful for the following reasons. If you do, you will actually have a genetic profile readily available. However, most forensic DNA analysis from disasters is accomplished by mitochondrial DNA testing, which you would not have with the DNA profile, nor is it routinely performed. If analysis is ever needed, you would not have to pay for it, but the laboratory performing the DNA testing would appreciate a clean, stable DNA sample from which they can obtain any DNA, including mitochondrial DNA. Why would you not want a DNA profile performed? In a word - SECURITY. Your DNA is secure because YOU keep the sample, so your DNA profile is not analyzed unless circumstances require it to be analyzed. Your DNA profile will also not be available to prying eyes. Remember, people leave DNA residue from hair, dander, body fluids, etc. everywhere, everyday. The difference is that the DNA residues are not analyzed and are not stable. We just offer a means to store a clean, stable DNA sample. By storing the sample rather than analyzing it, you will not spend money unnecessarily. Where can the sample be analyzed if necessary? The clean, stable DNA specimen is compatible with testing from our laboratory and ANY other laboratory that performs Human Identification testing or mitochondrial DNA testing, including state or government forensic laboratories. The likely scenario is that you would not have control over which laboratory will perform the analysis. Who could benefit from personal DNA storage? Everyone could benefit from archiving a personal DNA sample in the event of a missing person, disaster or accident. Many families keep archived DNA samples of all members, especially the children. Personal DNA collection and archiving kit. This is a professional grade kit that contains everything you need to collect a personal sample of high quality DNA suitable for use in Human IDentification. See the HumID page.
