ADNTRO-New DNA testing company

[Zoro]

https://www.adntro.com/en/

There is a new company that does saliva kits and DNA uploads for EUR 15. They use the Illumina Global Screening Array which is what 23andMe V5 uses and is a little better for E Eurasian variation. The older 23andMe V3 and V4 used the Illumina Omni Express Array which was more geared for W Eurasian variation.

IMO the best Illumina arrays are the Multi-Ethnic array which genotypes 1.8 million SNPs but DNA companies don't use them because they are more expensive.

IMO for Asian variation the Illumina Asian array is best but I haven't seen any company use it.

Anyways if you were genotyped on 23andme V5 you'll get the most accurate results here because both 23andme V5 and ADNTRO use the same Illumina Global Screening Array.

They also give you reaction to various medications and disease propensity.



As far as admixture results I'm not sure which ethnic groups they used for references but here are results of a couple of Iraqi Kurmanji Kurds which are typical Kurdish results in Iraq.



Kurd-Kurmanji-Iraq 23andme V5 data which should be slightly more accurate than the next Kurd which is V4 data.

I think the admixture wheel percentages are off because they don't match the table

Another kurmanji kurd result from Iraq. This one is 23andme V4 so slightly less accurate than the above 23andme V5 because V5 and ADNTRO both use the same Illumina Global Screening array. Wheel chart seems off

I'll try it later.

Uploaded my 23andme V5 data and eh, the result is taken with a grain of salt. What seperates East Euro, North East Euro, and Central Euro? Is East Euro like Ukraine? It also seems too diverse. I'm not sure how I can be 16% Scandinavian with 0 modern ancestral connections to Scandinavia, but 0% MENA with 12.5% connections to MENA countries. Not sure it was worth €15

Their references are groupped by imbecile. This is why I removed my previous thread about this company when I was informed about it. I'm ashamed I created this thread...
This is why people got random values from other continents...

Let's see: Belarusian and Buriats in one group, Ukrainians and Selkups, Mordovians and Yakuts, Yizu and Indians, Tajiks and Mongols, Baloch and Bengali, and many more....
Oh and Turks in Caucasus group but Armenian in Anatolian.
Every TA member active in genetic threads would group it better.

Grace O'Malley's result was 0% British Isles (which until yesterday was called 'Britain & Ireland & West France & North Iberia'), but she got lots of Iberian and Italian. When she queried the result the she got an answer in poor English from someone called 'William Bateson' (keep in mind this site is based in Spain), who of course was one of the eminent figures in the history of genetics.

Possibly the worst scam DNA site I've seen yet, but people like flushing money down the toilet I guess, as we've seen with MyTrueAncestry.

I gave them a chance because usually I appear as crtitic of most of such websites on every forum, so I want to change my mind Anyway I should be critic still... I'm ashamed I wasted money on it. But I tried.

was called 'Britain & Ireland & West France & North Iberia'

Atlantic Facade!

Yeah what’s up with that? I wonder if that’s a mistake but for the 2 kurdish samples especially the one with 23andme v5 the results were sensible.To their credit both kurds didn’t get Italian like what 23andme or some companies assign. They both got larger E Balkan followed by W Balkan which makes better sense than Italian.

The high C Asian is also reasonable since 2 Tajik groups are part of that.

Something to keep in mind though is they use the Illumina Global screening array chip just like 23andme V5 which is superior to the older Illumina Omni Exoress chip 23andme used for V3 and V4. What this means is if anyone has older 23andme V3 or V4 data the SNP overlap with the Global Screening array is poor so their results will not be as accurate.

So people who have 23andme V5 data will get the most accurate results just like the 1st kurdish sample i posted.

I still have no idea what they used for N Asian references I didn’t see those in their table. Also their admix wheel needs to get fixed because those % don’t line up with actual results

Wow, these are just basic geography mistakes. Since when was Bangladesh in the "Central Asia"? South Central Asia is Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan... this is bad.
