As the driving force behind the company, Detra is dedicated to making DNA testing more accessible, providing trusted results with the convenience of mobile services tailored to meet individual needs.

Inspired by an aging population and the struggle to find time or transportation, Detra envisioned a service that would bring reliable, confidential DNA testing directly to clients, wherever they are.
