Your journey to personalized wellness starts with a simple, painless step. Providing your sample for a Mapmygenome™ test is easy and can be done from the comfort of your home. To ensure the highest quality laboratory results, please follow our step-by-step guides for your specific kit.

🛑 Important Reminders Before You Start

• Storage: Do not refrigerate the kit. Store it at room temperature in a clean, dry place.

• Timing: Try to collect and ship your sample on a Monday or Tuesday. This ensures it reaches our laboratory before the weekend and prevents any transit delays.

• Privacy: Your privacy is our priority. Your sample is immediately de-identified and assigned a unique barcode upon arrival at our NABL/CAP-accredited laboratory.

🧪 Choose Your Sample Type & Follow Instructions

1. Saliva Sample (DNA Tests)

• Commonly used for: Genomepatri™, MedicaMap™, and MyFitGene™.

• ⚠️ The Golden Rule: Do not eat, drink, smoke, or chew gum for at least 30 minutes before collecting your saliva.

• 💡 Quick Tip: Avoid touching the swab tip with your fingers or your tongue to prevent external contamination.

2. Stool Sample (Gut Biome Tests)

• Commonly used for: MapmyBiome™.

• ⚠️ The Golden Rule: Use the specialized collection paper provided in your kit. Do not let the sample come into contact with toilet water.

• 💡 Quick Tip: Ensure the collection tube is tightly sealed and placed back into the biohazard bag immediately after collection.

3. Dried Blood Spot (Biochemical & DNA Tests)

• Commonly used for: Epigenetics and specific advanced health screenings.

• ⚠️ The Golden Rule: Ensure your hands are warm before the finger prick. Wash them with warm water and rub them together vigorously to improve blood flow.

• 💡 Quick Tip: Allow the blood spots to air-dry completely on the card for 15–20 minutes before closing the kit. Do not apply external heat.
