Kit Status
With our straightforward and user-friendly interface, you can easily track the progress of your kit from activation to the final report generation. Here is how you can understand your kit status:
- Name: This refers to the name used while registering the kit. It helps you identify whose sample the kit contains, especially useful when multiple family members are getting tested.
- Kit ID: This is a unique identifier assigned to each kit. It helps track your sample throughout the process and ensures your data is correctly linked to your account.
- Activation Date: This is the date on which you activated your kit. Activation is a crucial step that links your sample to your personal account.
- Current Status: This shows the stage at which your kit is in the processing pipeline.
If your kit is still in the sequencing process, you can select the View Full Details link to see more information about the current phase of the process.
All Genomes
We use the term "Genome" to represent the DNA data for a single person. If you have DNA data files for two people stored in your account, you will see two separate genomes.
Genomes are automatically created in your account using our proprietary One Genome Technology. Whenever a DNA data file is added to your account, One Genome Technology will automatically detect if that data is from a person who already has a genome in your account and add it to the existing genome, or create a new genome for a new person.
Having all of the DNA data for a person organized into a single genome makes it easy to access and analyze each person's genetic data. These genomes are created by combining the highest quality data from each of your raw DNA data files and are securely stored in your account as "digital genomes."
