DNA ancestry test: where did your ancestors come from?

Adnà’s ancestry test analyzes over 700,000 genetic markers to trace your origins across more than 1,500 regions and 175 countries. A simple saliva sample, collected at home, is all it takes. The analysis is carried out by an accredited partner laboratory using Illumina technology. You receive your report as a PDF by email 30 to 45 business days after the lab receives your sample.

What your report reveals

  • Your origins by region and country. A detailed picture of your ancestry, down to the province or region level in some countries.
  • Your ancestors’ migrations. How population movements and exchanges between cultures shaped your genetic heritage.
  • Both of your lineages together. The analysis of autosomal DNA covers your ancestors on both your father’s and your mother’s side.
  • Your affinities with major populations. The groups and civilizations with which you share the most markers.

How does an ancestry test work?

You inherit half of your DNA from each parent, who inherited it from their own parents, and so on. The lab compares your DNA with reference populations whose geographic origin is known. The more markers you share with a population, the higher that origin appears in your result.

The percentages are estimates: they may change slightly as the reference databases grow.

How much does the test cost?

The ancestry test costs €249. The price includes the kit, the prepaid return label, the lab analysis and the report.

To get all seven of our reports (health, wellness and ancestry), the DNA 360 test includes them for €399, from the same sample.

How the test works, step by step

  1. Order online. Your kit arrives within 4 to 5 business days.
  2. Collect your saliva sample following the instructions. Our user guide shows you each step.
  3. Send the sample back with the prepaid return label included in your kit.
  4. Get your report by email, as a PDF, 30 to 45 business days after the lab receives your sample.

What the test does not do

The ancestry test gives no information about your health and does not prove a family relationship with a specific person. To check a family relationship, choose a relationship (paternity, siblingship…) test instead. To learn about your health, see our genetic predisposition test.

Questions?

Adnà relies on cutting-edge technology for genetic testing and comprehensive databases to generate highly accurate ancestry results. However, no genetic test can be guaranteed 100% accurate.

Adnà offers a comprehensive report covering ethnic composition, geographic origins, and connections to specific ancestral groups. The report may also include information on lineage, potential migration routes, and the historical context of ancestors.

Genetic tests are optimized to detect and report a wide variety of ethnicities. The laboratory breaks down genetic heritage into percentages for each identified ethnic origin, providing a nuanced view of ancestral heritage.

Ancestry results provide a foundation for building a family tree. Ethnic and regional data, as well as potential matches, can help trace and connect different family branches.

Yes. Adnà states that it uses advanced genetic testing methods so that results are based on recent genetic research and analysis.

Adnà provides clear, easy-to-follow instructions for sample collection. Laboratories apply strict protocols when handling and analyzing DNA to support the accuracy and reliability of results.

• Relationship tests use DNA to establish family ties by analyzing 22 genetic markers.
• Wellness and health tests rely on cutting-edge technologies, including DNA sequencing with Illumina technology, and on the integration of peer-reviewed studies recognized by the international scientific community.

The turnaround time depends on the type of test ordered.

For relationship tests
• Your kit is generally delivered to your home within 4 to 5 business days after you place your order, depending on your address.
• Your results will be available within 5 to 10 business days after your samples are received at the laboratory.
• You will then receive your report directly at the email address linked to your order.

For health and wellness tests (ancestry, sport and performance, nutrition, skin care, talents and personality, microbiome, genetic predisposition, pharmacogenetics and DNA Test 360)
• Your kit is generally delivered to your home within 4 to 5 business days after you place your order, depending on your address.
• Your results will be available within 30 to 45 business days after your samples are received at the laboratory. This timeframe reflects the complexity of the sequencing.
• You will then receive your report directly at the email address linked to your order.

Sample collection is simple. Here is an explanatory video showing how to collect the sample, and detailed instructions are included in the Adnà kit to guide the client.
