Sorenson Genomics’ World-wide Ancestry Test provides the highest resolution and accuracy of any genetic anthropology test.
- Sorenson Genomics World-wide Ancestry test allows researchers to reduce study costs and time by selecting the most suitable individuals to participate in study trials.
- Sorenson Genomics World-wide Ancestry test can help uncover new leads by identifying what percent of a perpetrator’s DNA falls within 5 major reference populations.
- Sorenson Genomics carefully selected 200 of the most informative SNPs for ethnicity from a collection of 1.4 million markers to create the World-wide Ancestry Test.
The Human Genomics DNA Laboratory at Sorenson Genomics has introduced a new population genetics test, the World-wide Ancestry (WWA) Test. The WWA test provides the highest resolution and accuracy of any genetic anthropology test available. The WWA test is supported by a careful selection of 200 of the most informative SNPs for ethnicity. These powerful SNPs were pulled from an impressive collection of 1.4 million markers. Versions of the WWA test can be successfully applied across a variety of industries.
Research & Academia
Minimize sampling selection bias and carefully stratify study populations by using Sorenson Genomics’ World-wide Ancestry Test.
Ancestry DNA Testing
Ancestry DNA testing draws upon the power of the WWA test to produce genealogical tools powerful enough to help uncover modern, distant and ancient roots.
Forensics DNA Testing
Law Enforcement harnesses the power of the WWA test to produce forensic tools powerful enough to define a suspect by determining genetic ancestry and exposing new leads to locate a suspect.
The World-wide Ancestry Test allows researchers to reduce study costs and time by selecting the most suitable individuals to participate in study trials. This novel method for estimating human genetic ancestry uses genetic markers specifically chosen for their ability to differentiate between 5 genetically diverse reference populations: European, West Sub-Saharan African, East Asian, Indigenous American and India Subcontinent.
The Sorenson Genomics Laboratory Team will collaborate with businesses and educational institutions for customized applications of the WWA test. Founded in 2001, Sorenson Genomics provides core laboratory functions, is a lean Six Sigma laboratory and holds the highest quality standards and accreditations in the industry.
