DNA Probes based Diagnostics Market Forecast, Trend, Analysis & Competition Tracking - Global Market Insights 2020 to 2030

About the Report

DNA probes are stretches of single-stranded DNA, utilized to identify the presence of complementary nucleic acid sequences (target sequences) by hybridization. Marked with a label like color or fluorescence, they allow researchers to detect a distinct sequence of DNA in a mixture. Firstly, the DNA sample is heated to separate the DNA strands after which the probe is applied.

The growing adoption of DNA probes in new disease identification has led to investments and foray of new players. Fact.MR, a global research and consulting firm, in its new report analyzes the DNA probes based diagnostics market in detail, offering comprehensive coverage on the key success factors.

Historical and Future Outlook

DNA probes based technology is being extensively employed in diagnostics as well as in other fields such as micro-fabrication, data handling, molecular biology, instrumentation development, biological sample preparation, and surface chemistry. As a result, the DNA probes based technology has gained immense popularity in last few years. During the period 2015-2019, DNA probes based diagnostics market has grown at nearly 4%.

Rising public awareness for this technology for prenatal diagnosis and carrier detection is growing rapidly and is expected to result in a significant increase in the demand for such services in the coming years. Additionally, the rising penetration of automation in diagnosis tests is forecast to create lucrative growth opportunities for the global DNA probes based diagnostics market. During the period 2020-2030, the DNA-probes based diagnostics market is likely to grow at over 5%.

How is Rising Healthcare Spending Supporting Growth?

DNA probes based diagnostics market is presented with a lucrative expansionscope, attributed to burgeoning healthcare expenditure across countries. The World Health Organization’s Global Spending on Health: Weathering the Storm reportrevealed that global spending on reached US$ 8.3 Tn between 2000 and 2018 representing 10% of global GDP.

Findings reveal that out-of-pocket spending has persisted in low and lower-middle-income economies, representingover 40% of total health spending in 2018.This rising healthcare expenditure is augmenting the demand for DNA probes based diagnostics.

As countries converge on healthcare, the number of hospitals, clinics, and laboratories is rising. According to EHealthinsurance, in 2019, there were 6000 hospitals in the US. In 2020, the count reached 6,146, according to the American Hospital Association. This is aggrandizing demand for DNA probes for various operations.

What is the Potential of DNA Probes in New Disease Identification?

W.H.O has declared that, presently, antibiotic resistance is among the biggest threats to global health. New resistance mechanisms are developing and expanding globally, hampering the ability to treat general infectious diseases. Consequently, DNA probes based diagnostics are gaining immense popularity for their precise detection of these infections.

According to the Review on Antimicrobial Resistance, annual fatalities attributed to antimicrobial resistant infections will rise from the existing 700,000 to 10 million by 2050 unless preventive measures are effectively implemented. DNA probes, therefore, are proving useful in accurate detection and diagnosis of infectious diseases.

Potential advantages include rapid detection and identification of infectious agents; ability to screen selected specimens using batteries of probes and detection of non-viable or difficult to culture organisms. Players such as LGC Biosearch Technologies are active players manufacturing various ranges of DNA probes, including BHQplex CoPrimers and BHQplus Probes.

The Opportunity Created by Geriatric Population

Globally, the elderly population is rising due to declining fertility rates increased life expectancy. As people age, they experience several health issues. According to W.H.O, the world's population aged 60 years and older is expected to reach 2 Bn by 2050 which will be a rise from 900 Mn in 2015.

By 2050, 80% of all aged people will reside in low- and middle-income countries. Such predictions are pointing toward several growth opportunities for the DNA probes based diagnostics market. Apart from these, rising disposable income is also fueling the demand for DNA probes based diagnostics.

What are the Key Challenges for the Market?

While DNA probes have been a welcome development in the global healthcare industry, there are potential associated demerits which are likely to hamper future expansion of the market. In numerous instances, differentiation between species is problematic while using 16S rRNA sequences due to similarity.

The global standard library of rRNA sequences is constantly expanding and continuously being updated, making it difficult to dismiss possibilities of a random hybridization event between a specifically designed probe and an undesired target organism.

Apart from this, recombination between the marker and disease alleles, and incorrect pedigree data or non-paternity leads to erroneous diagnosis. These factors are hampering the growth of the market.
