A South Africa-focused DNA testing kit that uses saliva samples and polygenic risk scoring to deliver non-diagnostic insights on health traits, pharmacogenomics, and ancestry.
BioCertica is a direct-to-consumer DNA testing platform and Africa's first digital biobank, combining advanced genetic testing with encryption technology to deliver personalised health, lifestyle, and ancestry insights. Users order an at-home saliva kit with prepaid return shipping, and within 6–8 weeks receive results via a secure mobile app. The platform analyses 800,000 genetic markers, enhanced through Polygenic Risk Scoring (PRS) to cover up to 2 million biomarkers — making it the first African company to introduce PRS to consumer DNA testing. Report categories include nutrition & wellbeing, fitness & weight management, skin care, cardiovascular health, mental health, autoimmune & metabolic health, pharmacogenomics, COVID-19 response, and ancestry (not genealogy). Additional reports can be unlocked in-app post-purchase, and results can be shared with practitioners via a dedicated portal. Lab processing is conducted in-house at the University of Stellenbosch. All results are non-diagnostic.
