Hi Brian,

The test is a very straightforward process of taking two skin scraping samples from the inside of ones cheek, putting them in the vials provided and returning them to the DNA testing company. The cost of a Y-37 test (for members of the Manx project) is US$149.

More details are available on the website www.manxdna.co.uk on the page entitled "How to Take Part" . If you need more information please do not hesitate to contact me separately by email (via the website).
Thanks very much for your interest,

cheers

John
