Nucleic Acid Isolation And Purification Market Growth & Trends
The global nucleic acid isolation and purification market size is anticipated to reach USD 9.8 billion by 2028, based on a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 11.4% from 2021 to 2028. The growth can be primarily attributed to the technological advancements in molecular detection platforms. The technologies such as robotic liquid handling in automated DNA extraction systems, have improved the process flow. Such automation has streamlined all the tasks involved in various processes, such as DNA extraction from samples, serial dilution, and picking the desired gene of interest.
The outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 in late 2019 in China quickly translated into a global pandemic, which led to high demand for efficient and affordable diagnostic tests that could be carried out in non-clinical as well as clinical settings. This also led to high demand for nucleic acid extraction kits which in turn has led the key players to increase their manufacturing capabilities. For instance, in March 2020, QIAGEN announced the expansion of its production capacity in the U.S. and Europe to reach 20 million monthly patient tests by the end of 2020.
Moreover, rapid diagnosis, effective treatment options, and future prevention plans are essential in the management of COVID-19. The current race for the development of cost-effective, point-of-contact test kits and efficient laboratory methodologies for the detection of coronavirus infection has driven a new frontier of diagnostic innovation. The increase in adoption of PCR for SARS-CoV-2 detection by a wide range of commercial laboratories drives the market, as nucleic acid isolation and purification is an important step in the PCR workflow.
