Sample Collection

Each collection kit includes one buccal (cheek) swab. A buccal swab is an easy and painless way to collect cells which contain DNA that can be used for genetic testing. In addition to easy collection, there are scientific advantages to using DNA from buccal swabs as well (Sdano, et al., 2014).

Note: Samples will be rejected if not labeled/identified correctly and will require a re-swab from the patient.

The team at Lineagen will usually receive the kit within 2-4 days via FedEx. If needed, call us at (801) 931-6200 to schedule a FedEx pickup. At that time, a Lineagen representative will contact the family to review the billing policy based on each patient’s specific insurance plan and will offer genetic counseling by telephone.
