Among all the products studied in this report, in 2023, the consumables segment is expected to account for the largest share of the microfluidic immunoassay market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the repetitive use of kits, the growing portfolio of disease-specific kits for early diagnosis of diseases, and the increasing product approvals. The continuous advancements in reagents and kits, the development of user-friendly diagnostic kits, and the adoption of microfluidic immunoassay cartridges in clinical and research laboratories are positively impacting the demand for consumables used in microfluidics.
Among all the technologies studied in this report, the electrochemical detection segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Electrochemical detection is increasingly used in the microfluidic immunoassay owing to benefits such as low cost & power requirements, low sample & reagent consumption, portability, and short response time, contributing to the highest CAGR of this segment.
Among all the applications studied in this report, in 2023, the cardiology segment is expected to account for the largest share of the microfluidic immunoassay market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to increasing applications of microfluidic cartridges in biomarker profiling of cardiovascular diseases and understanding disease mechanisms. The demand for microfluidic immunoassay is increasing in biomedical and clinical fields for research on cardiac biomarkers, contributing to the largest share of the market.
Among all the end users studied in this report, the pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The highest CAGR of this segment is attributed to factors such as the increasing R&D investments by pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies, the widespread utilization of microfluidic immunoassay in drug discovery & development, and a growing emphasis on personalized medicine research. The rising spending on R&D by pharmaceutical companies is also contributing to the largest share of this segment.
An in-depth analysis of the geographical scenario of the global microfluidic immunoassay market provides detailed qualitative and quantitative insights into the five major geographies (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa) along with the coverage of major countries in each region. In 2023, North America is expected to account for the largest share of the microfluidic immunoassay market, followed by Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. North America’s large share is attributed to the region’s high R&D spending by the pharmaceutical & biotechnology companies for the development of drugs and biomarker identification, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, rising healthcare expenditure, presence of leading market players in the region, and favorable government initiatives for research & development. According to the U.S. Congressional Budget Office, U.S. pharmaceutical R&D expenditure increased from USD 91.1 billion in 2020 to USD 102.3 billion in 2021.
