First go to https://atlasbiomed.co.uk/account and register your personal account. In the account you should register the barcode that is located on the container, which is inside the box.
Please remember that, if you do not register this barcode, we will not be able to give you access to your results.
Please read the instructions carefully so you do not affect the quality of your sample. Once the tube is sealed tightly, keep your sample at room temperature. You don’t need to put it in the fridge, just seal it in the specimen bag.
Seal the box with your sample inside and return it by mail.
The original box already includes prepaid postage, so you only have to drop it into the postbox and we will handle the rest.
Your sample is analysed in the lab using Illumina technology. The DNA fragments in your sample are studied to identify your microbes and evaluate their proportion in the microbiome.
It may take 4–8 weeks before your results are available on your personal account. Every sample is analysed on a case-by-case basis and we will notify you personally if there are any changes to this timeframe.
We use algorithms based on published scientific research to analyse your microbiome and establish personalised lifestyle recommendations.
The results of your test will be added to your personal account. This process usually takes up to 8 weeks. You will be notified by email as soon as the results are ready.
