Market Growth Factors

The molecular diagnostics market is witnessing robust growth due to the increasing prevalence of chronic and infectious diseases. According to the report, in 2016, non-communicable diseases accounted for 61% of mortalities and 55% of disability cases, highlighting the demand for fast and accurate diagnostic tools. Molecular diagnostics allow timely and proper diagnosis, enabling personalized treatment plans that improve patient outcomes and drive market demand.

Technological advancements in genomics and personalized medicine are pivotal growth drivers. The rise of genetic profiling innovations such as DNA sequencing, gene expression analysis, and next-generation sequencing enables accurate identification of disease markers and genetic predispositions. The adoption of personalized medicine, tailoring treatments to individual genetic profiles, necessitates sophisticated diagnostic technologies, thereby expanding market share. The U.S. precision medicine initiative launched in 2015 exemplifies governmental support for leveraging genomic data for research and diagnostics.

The increasing aging population also fuels molecular diagnostics demand. Age-related illnesses including neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases require targeted and early diagnosis, which molecular diagnostics provide. Non-invasive and accurate technologies like lab-on-a-chip systems are preferred, reflecting a trend towards convenient and improved health outcomes. This demographic shift significantly drives the demand for molecular diagnostic equipment and reagents, influencing market growth positively.
