Suracell (www.suracell.com) selected BioServe (www.bioserve.com) as its exclusive DNA testing partner. Suracell has developed a fully integrated information technology platform to identify genetic markers related to a number of biological processes that are linked to normal aging.
BioServe will extract DNA from a buccal swab. It will verify the DNA quality, analyze the sample with a panel of SNPs selected by Suracell, and finally transmit the data back to Suracell. In addition, BioServe will provide DNA testing services for Suracell’s genetic testing web portal. This portal provides a single point of access for physicians and health care centers, allowing them to use the internet to order genetic testing services for patients from participating laboratory service providers and providing secure online delivery of test results.
