Worldwide FMO3 DNA saliva test service

Note :
This test supplier has been cancelled for another supplier .

See this new post for details


FMO3 DNA testing (saliva)
Full coding region (532 codons)
Worldwide testing
Test lab is in Spain
Test kit will be provided
Price : £210/265 Euros/$337 if you wait for batches of 24
Individual price : £320/405 Euro/$512 if you wish to test without waiting for 24 to be reached

No money is involved until the batch number is reached. Financial transactions are between you and the lab..

FMO full coding region DNA test (532 codons)
Available worldwide
Saliva test (kit sent out)
No rush to return sample as it does not spoil for years

Prices : (including test-kit sent out but not return shipping)

Cost of being in a 24 batch sample :
£210 / 265 Euro /  $337

Cost of testing immediately :
£320 / 405 Euro / $512

Interested ?
Send an email to sysbodyodor@gmail.com
Who can test :
Anyone worldwide

What you will get :
Full list of your FMO3 coding region (532 codons)
An interpretation of the results

I have been able to arrange a FMO3 DNA testing program via a lab in Spain. This will be testing of the full FMO3 coding region (532 codons). I have been offered 2 prices for 2 options :

Batches of 24 : If you wait until a batch of 24 is reached, it will be the cheapest price. This means waiting until 24 samples have been collected. This is a typical arrangement as it is most economic to test in batches.
Cost :£210 / 265 Euro / $337

Individual testing :
If you wish to test instantly and not wait for a batch of 24, this can be done but it is more expensive.
Cost £320 / 405 Euro / $512

This is a new service.

How to test :
If you are interested, send an email to me at sysbodyodor@gmail.com
You will be put on the waiting list (for the batch list) or if wanting the individual option your email will be sent to the lab direct.

T
the test kit used is the Oragene OG-510 by DNAgenotek
What is the test :
You will be sent a saliva test kit free of charge. You spit in the kit and return it..

Returning :
You need to arrange return shipment. As it is saliva and does not need to reach the lab urgently, it should be relatively cheap to ship.    

Payment :
Payment will be arranged once the batch number is reached. Payment is by Credit card.
Those testing individually (not in batches) can arrange credit card payment with the lab

Results :
You will get a copy of your 532 codon FMO3 coding region
Also an interpretation will be given

Note about results :
Although all the 532 codons of the FMO3 coding region, it is possible to get 'false negative' results. This is mainly due to 2 reasons :
1. People can have faults in their 'intron' or 'promoter region which is not part of the coding region, and this can cause faults in FMO3 function even idf the coding region is normal
2. Although the 532 codons of the FMO3 coding region are known. it may not be known if all differences from the norm will affect function at all. Over time if new 'fault causing' differences will be discovered. However if you have your full coding list, you can then check if/when new 'faults' are discovered in the future. By this I mean, the interpretation will be to the best of the labs knowledge at this time, subject to whatever their opinion is at this time.

How to register an interest :
Send me an email at sysbodyodor@gmail.com
Let me know what country you are in and if you want to be in the 24 batch or want to test individually immediately at the higher price.

email sysbodyodor@gmail.com
Let me know what country you are in
State if you want to be in the 24 batch or test individually
Anyone for the 24 batch will be put on the 24 batch waiting list
Open to anyone worldwide and there is no rush to return the sample

Update Aug 17 :
Genos is back with it's EXOME test
link

Note :
Exome/Genome testing may be better option than single gene testing.

See this post : link

Note : Genos Exome Testing.

Exome testing is almost the same price now as single gene testing. Also Genos is consumer friendly, which standard DNA labs are not.

So the blog offer to test solely for FMO3 is almost obsolete, and so no longer offered.


Does Genos fully sequence FMO3 gene ?

At the moment it is not clear, but hoped this will become clear over the next few months

Note : possible 'wild west' way of testing FMO3
Use an ancestry dna site and rummage through the raw data
