Welcome to Glycanage, the revolutionary, science-based test offers an accurate and insightful view into the true condition of an individual’s health by defining the difference between their chronological and biological age. To calculate biological age, cutting edge technology analyses an individual’s IgG glycans, providing considerably more predictive information than any other single marker of biological age (such as telomere length).
First you take a small blood sample at home or work. It’s quick, safe and virtually pain-free.
Your sample is sent to the world’s leading high-throughput glycoanalytical laboratory - Genos.
Our experts will analyse your immunoglobulin G glycan pattern by using a process called liquid chromatography. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the most abundant class of antibody in the blood. It plays an important role in protecting the body against different kinds of diseases, attacking viruses, bacteria or cancer cells.
To calculate your biological age, cutting-edge technology analyses your IgG glycans.
In simple terms, glycosylation is the process when different glycans are attached to proteins. As you age or suffer from a disease, changes in your IgG glycosylation pattern occurs.
GlycanAge analyses your IgG glycome, providing considerably more predictive information than any other single marker of biological age (such as telomere length).
4 weeks after your sample has been received in the lab, you’ll get your GlycanAge results.
You’ll be able to make an informed decisions about your health and lifestyle. Because with knowledge comes control.
