Microbiology Testing/Clinical Microbiology Market, 2023 - Improving Healthcare Infrastructure Across Emerging Countries

DUBLIN, Sept. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Microbiology Testing/Clinical Microbiology Market by Application , Disease , Product , End User - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global clinical microbiology market is expected to reach USD 4.95 billion by 2023 from USD 3.63 billion in 2018, growing at a CAGR of 6.4%.

The technological advancements in disease diagnostics, rising incidence of infectious diseases and growing outbreak of epidemics, and increased funding and public-private investments in the field of disease diagnosis are the key factors driving the growth of this market.

On the basis of products, the market is categorized into instruments (laboratory instruments and microbiology analyzers) and reagents (pathogen-specific kits and general reagents). The instruments segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global clinical microbiology market in 2018. Factors such as the significant adoption of conventional laboratory instruments among end users, technological advancements in the field of molecular techniques & proteomics (such as the integration of microfluidics with PCR and nanotechnology with qPCR techniques), and the ongoing trend of laboratory automation among clinical laboratories, are propelling growth in this segment.

The instruments product segment is further subsegmented into laboratory instruments (incubators, gram stainers, autoclave sterilizers, bacterial colony counters, microbial air samplers, blood culture counters, microbial culture systems, anaerobic culture systems, petri dish fillers, and other laboratory instruments) and microbiology analyzers (molecular diagnostic instruments, advanced microscopes, and mass spectrometers). The microbiology analyzers product segment is expected to grow at highest CAGR during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the increasing adoption of advanced analyzers for disease diagnosis by end users, and technological advancements in the field of molecular diagnostic instruments.

Similarly, the reagents product segment is further subsegmented into pathogen-specific kits and general reagents. The pathogen-specific kits segment is expected to grow at higher CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of this segment is attributed to factors such as the flexibility pathogen-specific kits offer to end users to optimize the reaction for better results and increasing patient preference across major countries for early and accurate disease diagnosis.

On the basis of disease area, the clinical microbiology market is segmented into respiratory diseases, bloodstream infections (BSIs), gastrointestinal (GI) diseases, sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), urinary tract infections (UTIs), periodontal diseases, and other diseases (including cardiovascular disease, central nervous system infections, connective tissue & joint diseases, and skin diseases). The respiratory disease segment is estimated to witness the highest growth during the forecast period, primarily due to as the large patient population suffering from respiratory diseases (coupled with the growing exposure to key risk factors such as pollution) and the increasing number of epidemic outbreaks of respiratory infections.

On the basis of end user, the clinical microbiology market is segmented into hospitals and diagnostic centers, custom lab service providers, and academic and research institutes. The custom lab service providers segment is estimated to witness the highest growth during the forecast period owing to the continuous outsourcing of drug testing procedures to laboratory service providers by pharmaceutical companies, procedural benefits offered by advanced molecular technology-based instruments (such as PCR and NGS) in drug discovery, increasing number of microbiology-based clinical trials, and the growing number of custom lab service providers across major markets.

Microbiology Testing/Clinical Microbiology Market

Geographically, this market is classified into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and RoW. In 2018, the global clinical microbiology market is expected to be dominated by North America. However, the Asia Pacific region is expected to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period owing to the government efforts to increase awareness related to genome-based infectious disease diagnosis; rising healthcare expenditure; increasing number of hospitals and clinical diagnostic laboratories in India and China; expanding research base across India, China, and Japan; and the increasing incidence of infectious diseases.

While the market is expected to grow at a steady rate in the next five years, factors such as reimbursement concerns and unfavorable regulatory scenario in some nations are expected to restrict market growth.

Product launches and enhancements are the key growth strategies adopted by major players to strengthen their position in the global microbiology testing/clinical microbiology market. In addition, strategies such as agreements, partnerships, and collaborations; acquisitions; and expansions were also adopted by several market players to remain competitive in the market.
