Ltd (23Mofand), Genetic Technologies Ltd, Illumina Inc., Myriad Genetics Inc., Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., and Quest Diagnostics Inc.

Summary: Direct-to-consumer (DTC) genetic testing involves the analysis and interpretation of a persons genome. A consumer can access DTC genetic testing from a commercial company or from a health care provider.

DTC genetic testing has evolved in the past 10 years. Initially it focused on personal applications outside traditional health care, such as exploring ancestry and has trended toward interfacing with clinical care in non-traditional ways, such as partnerships between DTC companies with health systems.

Analysis of a customers genome helps to know about their ancestry inference, disease risks and other personal traits. Based on this, the main applications include ancestry, health and lifestyle.

Several factors are driving growth in the DTC genetic testing industry, including a shifting emphasis on health-related applications, the rise of personalized genomics and increasing convenience of ordering goods and services from virtual at-home settings. This latter trend has been accelerated by the COVID- 19 pandemic.

There is rising public awareness of DNA and its impact on health and genetic disorders, ancestry and lifestyle. These trends are having a favorable impact on the at-home genetic testing market.
