Biochips Market Dynamics:

In the global biochips market, the estimated high numbers of chronic and infectious diseases are expected to drive the demand for biochips in the upcoming years. Globally, chronic diseases (CDs) have been observed to be the leading causes of disability and morbidity and since these diseases are chronic, skilled healthcare expertise along with the latest treatment technologies are required to timely treat the chronic disease.

For example, an article published by the European Public Health Conference in January 2022, reported that more than 3 million people will be affected by cancer by 2030 in Europe. In addition, according to a research paper published by the Journal Plos One in March 2022, it stated that 21% of the elderly population in India had at least one chronic disease, being the leading cause of death and mortality among the geriatric population in India.

In this direction, research toward developing new lab-on-a-chip-based POC systems for the diagnosis of chronic diseases is an emerging area. Thus, a high incidence of chronic diseases is expected to drive the growth of the studied market.

Moreover, the application of biochips in biomedical and biotechnological research is growing, especially in the fields of proteomics and genomics. Proteomics is being used extensively in drug and biomarker discovery. For instance, a particular advantage of protein biochips is their tendency towards miniaturization, resulting in a low sample consumption..

Moreover, recent product development activities in the biochips market are also expected to spur the demand for biochips in the upcoming years.

For instance, In July 2023, Opteev Technologies, Inc., a pioneering technology company at the forefront of diagnostics, filed a patent for a revolutionary multiplex biochip Opteev multiplex biochip for respiratory infection diagnostics. The groundbreaking polymer-based biochip offered the potential to test multiple pathogens responsible for respiratory infections, including SARS-CoV-2, RSV, and Influenza, and precisely identify the specific virus or bacteria in under 1 minute.

Hence, the interplay of all the above-mentioned factors is anticipated to increase the overall market growth for Biochips during the forecast period from 2023 - 2028.

However, the availability of alternative technologies, and constraints associated with lab-on-chip devices, among others may restrict the growth of the overall market for Biochips during the forecast period.

Biochips Market Segment Analysis:

Biochips Market By Type (DNA Chips, Protein Chips, Lab-On-Chips, And Others), Application (Genomics And Proteomics, Drug Discovery, Diagnostics, IVD & POC, Gene Expression, And Others), End-User (Hospitals And Diagnostic Centers, Academic And Research Institutes, Pharmaceutical And Biotechnology Companies, And Others), And Geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World).

In the type segment of the biochips market, the lab-on-chips category is expected to amass a significant revenue share in the year 2022. This can be ascribed to the various characteristics and advantages associated with lab-on-chips along with the adoption of personalized medicine and easy accessibility of lab-on-chip technology.

Lab-on-a-chips are biochips that are microfluidic devices conducting several laboratory functions and fluid analyses at rapid speeds designed with micro-channels smaller than a single cell, with a large surface-area-to-volume ratio where liquids follow a laminar flow pathway. Lab on a chip shows the ability to control cells at the single-cell level in seconds. It also includes applications such as micro patch clamp, control of stem cell differentiation, high-speed flow cytometry, and cell sorting. In addition, recently extensive research has been focused on using lab-on-a-chip microfluidics and highly parallelized microchemical reactors.

For example, the lab-on-chip microfluidic is emerging as a molecular biological tool for DNA/RNA amplification and detection like ELVESYS developed the world's fastest qPCR system - Fastgene. Moreover, in February 2022, Onera Health launched the Onera Biomedical-Lab-on-Chip, an ultra-low-power bio-signal sensor subsystem for wearable devices; designed to process multiple bio-signals.

Thus, due to the increasing number of clinical research, developmental activities, rising technological advancements, and adoption of personalized medicine, among others, the lab-on-a-chip biochips segment is expected to grow substantially, thus supporting the overall market growth for Biochips during the forecast period from 2023 to 2028.

North America is expected to dominate the overall Biochips Market:

Among all the regions, North America is estimated to account for the largest share of the Biochips market in the year 2022. Owing to the significance of key growth factors such as the presence of a large patient population associated with various diseases including cancers, diagnostic procedures, research activities, and government funding for the masses in North America, among others during the forecast period from 2023-2028.

Major collaborations among key players in the region are expected to drive the the demand for biochips in the upcoming years. For instance, in September 2022, the US-headquartered activities with healthcare giants that are extensively investing in R&D in microarray technology. For instance, in September 2022, Illumina Inc. launched the NovaSeq X Series, enabling faster and more powerful sustainable sequencing. The revolutionary new technology, NovaSeq X Plus could generate 20,000+ whole genomes per year, therefore accelerating genomic discovery and clinical insights to transform patient lives. Thus, such collaborative developments in the region are driving the growth of the biochips market in the region.

Moreover, the increasing incidence of chronic and lifestyle diseases in the region is also contributing to the growth of the biochips market in the North America region. For instance, as per the Canadian Cancer Statistics (2021), an estimated 229,200 Canadians were diagnosed with cancer in 2021. Similarly, according to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), in 2021, an estimated 14 million adults in Mexico were living with diabetes. Thus, such a high number of people living with chronic and lifestyle diseases in North America is also contributing to the growth of the biochips market, by increasing the rates of their diagnosis, and treatment and opening up opportunities for their clinical research in the upcoming years.
