RAW DNA Phasing
Separate your DNA data into maternal and paternal contributions
Valid until May 01 2025
About DNA Phasing
Did you know that you inherit 50% of your DNA from each parent? Through phasing, we can create two separate RAW files, each representing the genetic contribution from one parent. This allows you to determine which traits or ancestries you inherited from your maternal or paternal side.
Why DNA Phasing is Useful
DNA phasing is particularly valuable for ancestry and genetic genealogy because it allows you to determine the specific ancestry and DNA matches that you inherited from each parent. This separation provides clearer insights into your family history.
Parent Identification
- • When phasing without parent's DNA, we can't determine which side belongs to each parent
- • In Duo Phasing, Parent 1 refers to the chosen parent's RAW file
- • In Trio Phasing, Parent 1 is the first selected file during ordering
Phasing Options
Statistical Phasing
Without parents' DNA
- ✓ Separate maternal/paternal DNA
- ✓ Some ancestry noise expected
Duo Phasing
Child + One Parent
- ✓ Precise parent identification
- ✓ 99% separated ancestry
Trio Phasing
Child + Both Parents
- ✓ Complete parental separation
- ✓ 100% ancestry accuracy

What You Receive & Use Cases
Service Includes:
- ✓ Two phased RAW files (Parent 1, Parent 2)
- ✓ Starter Pack for each phased file
- ✓ Processing within 48 hours
- ✓ Comprehensive parental ancestry insights
Usage Scenarios:
Get separate reports for each parent's genetic contribution
Obtain distinct ancestry reports for maternal and paternal lines
Important Information
- Phasing only covers chromosomes 1-22
- Process takes up to 48 hours
- Best results when all tests are from the same company
- For ancestry and genealogy purposes only
- Once a phased file (either Parent 1 or Parent 2) has been created, it cannot be rephased.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need to test my parents when I can phase my own DNA?
Each phased file only contains 50% of each parent's DNA. To get their full genetic information, you still need to test your parents directly.
What determines file identification?
In Duo Phasing, Parent 1 refers to the parent whose RAW file you provided. In Trio Phasing, Parent 1 is the first file you select during ordering, and Parent 2 is the second.
What about shared SNPs?
The phased files will only include SNPs that are shared between the child's and parents' files. Any SNPs not present in both files cannot be phased and won't be included.
