Why do we analyze saliva samples with our test?

Furthermore, saliva collection is considered safe and hygienic, and is less prone to contamination compared to other biological sample types. It is also easy to store, as saliva samples mixed with the preservative solution can be kept at room temperature for up to 12 months. The preservative solution added to the saliva collection tube guarantees the preservation of the genetic material, prevents bacterial contamination and ensures the stability of the saliva sample. Overall, the use of saliva samples in DNA testing provides a convenient, reliable, and efficient method for genetic analysis.
