One time, blood samples can be used to estimate the age of a person. Testing measurement techniques over the age of blood sample done at the National Cancer Research Centre in Spain. Tests conducted by the Spanish National Cancer Center Research done by measuring the length of telomeres, located at the ends of chromosomes. Apparently, the scientists found that the telomeres associated with the speed of one's biological age. Research shows that people with shorter telomeres have a biological age is shorter than the length of telomeres. If this technique is perfect, the method of measuring age with blood will be marketed through its Life Long as it approached a variety of medical diagnostic company in Europe. We began to be marketed next year, this test costs $ 700 U.S. range for all measurements.
Various criticisms posted on this test because it can trigger people's fears about death and make people more susceptible to fraud through a drug that is claimed to extend telomeres, age alias. In addition, some protests are also associated with the possibility of insurance companies require telomere test against those who wish to have insurance to determine the tariff.
