Immunochromatographic tests, known as lateral flow assays, can determine if a target analyte, such as a pathogen or a biomarker, is present or absent in people or animals. Due to increased usage in medical diagnostics, a rise in the occurrence of infectious diseases, the increasing need for point-of-care testing, and the widespread acceptance of home-based lateral flow assay tests. In terms of sensitivity, selectivity, and quantification advancements, technological growth is causing lateral flow tests to work better. Manufacturers' test readers are frequently utilized to assess the robustness of a sample's test line. Portable lateral flow assay readers are becoming increasingly popular due to their expanding mobility and downsizing. Technological advancements in using various wavelengths for sample illumination and various sample detection systems, which use CMOS or CCD detecting technologies, are driving innovations in lateral flow assay testing equipment.
Furthermore, assays are evolving from straightforward qualitative tests to intricate multi-analyte quantitative assays, driving the growth of the lateral flow assay market. The substantial incidence of infectious diseases, the growing geriatric population, the rising demand for point-of-care testing, the rising demand for home-based lateral flow assay test kits, and the rising disposable income in developing nations are the main factors driving the global lateral flow assay market. The global market is expected to be driven by technological development and rising product usage. The demand for user-friendly point-of-care testing in-home care settings that can provide results in real-time (5-15 minutes) is rising due to the increased frequency of infectious and lifestyle diseases.
The Lateral Flow Assay market segmentation is on the basis of type, application, technique, sample type and end users. Based on type, the market is segmented as kits & reagents and lateral flow readers. As per the application, the market is divided into clinical testing, veterinary diagnostics, food safety & environment testing and drug development & quality testing. By technique, the market is segmented into sandwich assay, competitive assays and multiplex detection assays. According to sample type, the market is divided into Blood Samples, Urine Samples, Saliva Samples and Others Samples. The end users segmentation compriseshospitals & clinics, diagnostic laboratories, home care, pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies and other end users.
The kits & reagents category will hold a major share of the world lateral flow assay market in 2022 due to the spread of infectious diseases and the expanding usage of lateral flow kits in home care settings. To improve the creation of efficient and sensitive lateral flow test instruments, Newmarket participants are working together. As a result, the market is projected that the demand for lateral flow assays will expand throughout the projection period due to increased strategic collaborations to accelerate the development of lateral flow kits.
The sandwich assay technique segment is projected to grow rapidly in the global lateral flow assay market owing to growing concerns about the harmful effects of synthetic chemicals on the skin. Hence, with the growing popularity of bio-based beauty products and personal hygiene products, there is an increase in demand for lateral flow assay in the personal care sector, especially in countries such as the US, Germany, the UK, China, and India.
The North America lateral flow assay market is expected to record the maximum market share in revenue shortly. As the increase in chronic disease prevalence, the rise in requirement for home health care, the early adoption of test procedures, and the existence of many important stakeholders. In addition, Asia Pacific is estimated to grow rapidly in the global lateral flow assay market. Due to a huge patient pool, increased government initiatives to provide improved healthcare facilities, a growth in disposable money, and increased public knowledge.
