Testing of blood is one of the oldest and most widely used techniques to rule out the presence of any disease. Blood tests are used to assure the biochemical and physiological well-being of the humans. They are also used to confirm the proper functioning of vital organs such as liver, kidney and thyroid and to understand the effectiveness of given therapeutics. The technological innovations along with consistent demand for better blood testing technologies have intensified the global competition. The market is growing owing to the burgeoning demand for point-of-care and minimally invasive testing devices. The major factors fuelling the global blood testing technologies market growth are high incidence of lifestyle diseases, cancer, infectious diseases and genetic disorders. Large pool of old age population along with increased public and private spending on diagnostics and research are other significant factors leading to market growth. Rising number of diagnostic centers, hospitals and emergence of home care diagnostics have opened lucrative avenues in the blood testing market. However, lack of awareness, reluctance to adopt newer technologies and unavailability of skilled labor are likely to restrain the market growth.
The global blood testing technologies market is segmented on the basis of type, technology, end user and geography. On the basis of type, the market is segmented into Complete Blood Count (CBC), Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP) such as blood glucose test, electrolyte test and kidney test; blood enzyme tests such as Troponin and Creatine Kinase; tests to assess heart disease risk such as lipoprotein panel and cholesterol test and blood clotting tests; and others such as Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR). On the basis of technology, the market is segmented into Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), Chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA), Radioimmunoprecipitation assay (RIPA), Nucleic Acid Amplification Test (NAAT), Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), Transcription-mediated Amplification (TMA), Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA), Immunofluorescence Assay (IFA), Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and Western Blot Test. The market is segmented on the basis of end user into hospitals and clinics, diagnostic centers and homes. Geographically, the market is segmented across four regions viz., North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and LAMEA.
Few strategies adopted by industrial players are collaborations and acquisitions. For instance Roche Diagnostics, in Dec 2014, acquired Ariosa Diagnostics, to enter into non-invasive prenatal test (NIPT) and cell-free DNA testing services markets. Ariosa’s proprietary Harmony Prenatal Test is a blood test that measures fetal cfDNA found in maternal blood. Recently, Philips has entered into collaboration agreement with Janssen Pharmaceutica N.V., to develop a handheld blood test intended to be used in neuropsychiatric care. The companies profiled in the report include Abbott Laboratories, F. Hoffmann-La Roche AG, Beckman Coulter Inc., Siemens AG., Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Becton Dickinson and Company, bioMérieux SA, Koninklijke Philips N.V., Alere Inc. and Medtronic plc.
