DNA Genotek Inc. a leading provider of products for biological sample collection, stabilization and preparation, today announced that its Oragene®•DNA product has been selected by Existence Genetics LLC for their newly launched predictive medicine service.

Predictive medicine is a rapidly emerging field of medicine that entails predicting disease and instituting preventive measures in order to either prevent the disease altogether or significantly decrease its impact upon the patient. Existence Genetics is gaining recognition as a leader in the field of predictive medicine by providing its genetically tailored service to the health care industry.

Existence Genetics uses genetic information generated using samples collected with the Oragene•DNA saliva-based DNA collection kit to give patients and their health care providers an easy-to-understand and actionable genetic report that is focused on the personalized prevention of disease. Existence Genetics provides its offering to patients through healthcare professionals and recognized health and wellness organizations in the United States and internationally.

"We chose to use the Oragene•DNA saliva-based collection kit because of its high quality, and because it is specifically designed to work effectively for all types of patients," said Dr. Brandon Colby, chief executive officer of Existence Genetics. "Ease of DNA sample collection is critical for predictive medicine and Oragene•DNA has proven to be very robust. It is also easy for patients to access and use at home or at point of care.

"DNA Genotek is pleased that our Oragene•DNA product has been chosen by Existence Genetics as the DNA sample collection method for this new predictive medicine service," said Ian Curry, president and chief executive officer, DNA Genotek, Inc.
