Market Dynamics

The global lateral flow assay market is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period, owing to growing adoption of lateral flow assay in various applications including clinical diagnostics, drug development, quality testing, veterinary diagnostic, food and environmental testing, micronutrient monitoring, diagnosing invasive pulmonary aspergillosis, qualitative and quantitative detection of specific antigens and antibodies, and gene amplification. For instance, according to the American Pharmaceutical Association (APhA) Academy of Student Pharmacists: Resolutions Committee-2015 report, 8,856 community pharmacies have a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) Certificate of Waiver, which enables pharmacists to perform POC tests such as glucose measurement and other POC testing. Moreover, increasing adaptation of point-of-care testing in clinical diagnosis and integration of POC testing in lateral flow assay tests are expected to drive growth of the lateral flow assay market over the forecasted period. However, variance or inconsistency results by lateral flow assay would lead to lower adoption of the technology, which in turn would hinder the growth of lateral flow assay market.

Increasing adoption of home-based lateral flow assay test are driving growth of the lateral flow assay market

Increasing prevalence of lifestyle and infectious diseases rising the demand for point-of-care testing under home care settings which has the ability to provide result in real-time (5-15 minutes), and ease of use. The home pregnancy test is well recognized example of lateral flow assay technology, which detects the presence of a hormone produced during pregnancy and displays a binary result. Adoption of home-based lateral flow assay devices is increasing, owing to various features such as portable device, low production cost, immediate results, and overall ease of use. Lateral flow assay based point-of-care testing improves the quality of care, owing to various advantages offered by them such as cost savings, reduced doctor, visits and laboratory overhead costs. However, variance in lateral flow assay test results may hinder growth of the lateral flow assay market.

High prevalence of infectious disease is expected to drive growth of the lateral flow assay market

High prevalence and increasing incidence of infectious disease are the major factors driving growth of the lateral flow assay market. According to the study published in journal Lancet Infectious Disease, in 2017, around 54,984,661 cases of 45 infectious diseases were reported with average yearly incidence 417·98 per 100?000 in china between January 2004 and December 2013. Furthermore, Hepatitis B and tuberculosis has shown high incidence rate of 81.57 and 80.33 per 100,000, respectively. Moreover, World Health Organization (WHO) estimated 212 million malaria cases worldwide in 2015, with highest incidence in African regions.

Key players operating in market include Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Siemens Healthineers, Inc., Qiagen N.V., Becton, Dickinson and Company, Diagnostic Consulting Network, Inc., Tetracore, Inc., Humasis Co. Ltd., and F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG.
