The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the growing demand for point-of-care testing and diagnostics, investments in research and development (R&D), rising frequency of chronic diseases, growing emphasis on genetics, and rising demand for personalized medicine. Major trends in the forecast period include integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning, adoption of 3D cell cultures and organoids in research, integration of cloud computing and internet of things (IoT) in microplates, integration of robotics, and developments in drug discovery and life science.

The increasing demand for personalized medicine is anticipated to drive the growth of the microplate instrumentation and supplies market in the near future. Personalized medicine, or precision medicine, customizes treatment and healthcare strategies based on an individual's unique genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. The surge in demand for personalized medicine is attributed to the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, growing consumer awareness, and the cost-effectiveness of such treatments. Microplate instrumentation and supplies are vital for personalized medicine, as they facilitate precise, high-throughput testing and analysis of biological samples. This technology is crucial for customizing medical treatments to individual patients' specific genetic, biomolecular, and cellular profiles. For example, in February 2024, the Personalized Medicine Coalition reported that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 16 new personalized treatments for rare diseases in 2023, a significant increase from the 6 approvals granted in 2022. Consequently, the demand for personalized medicine is fueling growth in the microplate instrumentation and supplies market.

Leading companies in the microplate instrumentation and supplies market are concentrating on developing innovative products, such as microplate readers utilizing Extended Dynamic Range (EDR) technology, to enhance assay accuracy, increase throughput, and optimize laboratory workflows. EDR technology-based microplate readers are sophisticated instruments designed to improve detection range and sensitivity across various assays, making them particularly beneficial for personalized medicine and other research fields. For instance, in February 2022, BMG LABTECH, a Germany-based company specializing in microplate readers, introduced the VANTAstar microplate reader. This new product features EDR technology, which provides a dynamic range covering over eight concentration decades in a single measurement, thus simplifying the process by removing the need for manual gain adjustments, as each plate is automatically read with optimal sensitivity settings.
