Pathogen Detection Market Scope and Segmentation      

Market Definition

Pathogen detection is critical in disease diagnosis. When patients exhibit symptoms suggestive of a pathogenic infection, blood, urine, saliva, and stool samples are collected and subjected to pathogenic detection assays for diagnostic purposes. The most common pathogen detection tools are polymerase chain reaction (PCR), culture and colony counting methods, and immunology-based methods. They involve DNA analysis, bacterial counting, and antigen-antibody interactions.

Pathogen Detection Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Rising genetic testing technology

Genetic testing technology is increasingly being used to detect pathogens on food in a quick, sensitive, and reliable manner. Genetic testing techniques detect pathogens even when they are newly formed or in minute concentrations. For instance, in 2019, at a healthcare conference in San Francisco, California, a Biotech startup firm LexaGena announced LX2, the world's first on-site, open access pathogen detection instrumentation that can be used for food safety, veterinary diagnostics. The company is currently developing the analyzer and plans to launch it in the market.

• Increase in R&D activities

New advances in R&D have assisted in mitigating the impact of pathogen-based infectious disease burden. Furthermore, the rapid detection and accuracy of results in a shorter period of time have increased the demand for pathogen detection in the coming years. According to a Research America article published in 2017, the United States spent USD 182.3 billion on R&D activities for medical and health causes in the United States, as well as the development of innovative technology. In contrast, the industrial sector invested approximately USD 121.8 billion in medical and health research and development activities, accounting for 67% of total expenditure.

Opportunities

• Technological advancements

With recent advances in the speed with which primary genome sequences can be acquired and analyzed, other detection or screening formats may become more widely available, and additional regions of microbial (and viral) genomes may be targeted more frequently. For instance, high-density oligonucleotide or amplified DNA products can be used to screen complex pools of microbial nucleic acid for specific agents in a massively parallel and efficient manner. This technological platform eliminates the need to clone and sequence large numbers of variant microbial molecules, which is especially important in analyzing clinical specimens.

Restraints/Challenges

• High cost of identification tests

The predominant techniques currently used to identify microbial pathogens rely on well-established clinical microbiology monitoring approaches, which have several significant drawbacks. Standard culture and susceptibility tests can identify pathogens, but they are time-consuming, expensive, and require labile natural products. More importantly, the pathogen identification tests that are commonly used do not directly characterize virulence factors. These all factors hamper the growth of the market.
