Ancestry

Find out more about your ancestors and learn your origins with our BioCertica Ancestry DNA test. 

1- Largest Database

Scientific evidence shows that people from a particular continent, country, or region show a specific pattern of genetic variations. We have access to the largest DNA database from 20+ populations in the world. Discover your family tree and get an estimate of your origins. 

2- Multiple Lineage

You can be from different cultures and have personality traits that reflect the people of that origin. For example, you could be 40% South East Asian: Bengali, 30% Northern European, 20% West African, and 10% Finnish. Learn which trait reflects in your personality more and from which origin you’ve inherited it. 

3- Just One Sample

It's scary to think how little we know about our ancestors. And the kits available in the market ask for a little too many samples. At BioCertica, you only need one saliva sample. We'll send you accurate results by analyzing your sample through our advanced laboratory in just a few weeks. 

Intrigued by your family's history? Your ancestors' DNA lives within your cells, so go ahead, unlock your past and discover the story of your ancestry.

Traits 

You are a product of 6 million years of evolution. 

Genetics is mainly about inheriting traits from your parents. Your height, weight, hair, and eye colour depend on your genetics. However, you do not inherit only physically visible traits. Your behaviour, intelligence, memory, and even more depending on your genetics.

This fun and exciting genetic test might teach you something new about yourself and your genetics.  In this test, you would find your earwax type, coffee consumption, intelligence, memory, aggression, and many more.

The science behind it

BioCertica provides genetic reports for 75 traits for which it assesses the genetic predisposition based on peer-reviewed scientific studies. These 75 traits are distributed across multiple topic-based packages, but you can read more about this in previous sections.

The critical question we want to answer here is how we estimate the genetic predisposition for those 75 traits. We are proud to inform you that we are the first African-based direct-to-consumer genetic testing company to estimate genetic predisposition to various traits and diseases using the polygenic risk scoring methodology. Click here to continue reading.
