Fraternal (dizygotic) twins develop from two separate fertilized eggs and share approximately 50% of their DNA, similar to non-twin siblings. The DNA Twin Test analyzes genetic markers from each participant to determine which type of twinning occurred.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if the participants live in different cities?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe kit can be split so that collection components are sent to each address separately. Each component is individually barcoded and tested together once all samples arrive at the laboratory.
