Different Kit types

Genotyping

Genotyping measures 0.02% of the DNA, which is approximately 500,000 to 1 million positions and powerful statistical approaches such as 'imputation' are used to fill in the blanks. Genotyping is the most cost-effective tool for genetics research, especially in common diseases.

Whole Exome Sequencing

Deeply profiles all know protein-coding regions ~40,000,000 bases. The gap in percentage profiled between this & whole-genome may seem huge, but approx 85% of known disease related variants are included here.

Whole Genome Sequencing

Measures nearly 100% of the human genome, which is ~3,000,000,000 bases. This is the most comprehensive and future-proof option, though cost may also reduce as technology advances.

Our promise

Our core value at Sano is transparency. From how we handle your data to how we operate as a company, we are committed to complete honesty. Here are our promises to you.

We started Sano because we believe you shouldn’t have to choose between data privacy and access to cutting edge research.
