Middle East and North Africa Allergy Diagnostics Market Analysis and Size

According to the WHO (World Health Organization), cities house nearly 80% of the world's population, and as a result, air quality has a significant impact on them, particularly in low-income countries. Furthermore, several studies have linked air pollution to allergic rhinitis, asthma, and other disorders, which has increased allergy diagnoses. Although allergies can affect almost every organ in the body and are caused by various external factors, there are a few common themes that should be highlighted in research efforts. As with many other chronic diseases, effective prevention, curative therapy, and accurate, early diagnosis are critical unmet needs.

Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the allergy diagnostics market which is USD 276.32 billion in 2022, is expected to reach USD 558.72 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 9.2% during the forecast period 2023 to 2030.

Middle East and North Africa Allergy Diagnostics Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Allergies affect nearly every organ in the body in various ways, resulting in a wide range of symptoms, and thus their manifestations cover a wide range of phenotypes. According to European studies, up to 30% of the population has allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, 20% has asthma, and 15% has allergic skin diseases. Allergies are diagnosed by the primary care provider or an allergist by taking your medical and family history, listening to the symptoms report and performing a physical examination.

Middle East and North Africa Allergy Diagnostics Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Rising prevalence of allergic diseases

The rising prevalence of allergic diseases such as hives, atopic dermatitis, allergic conjunctivitis, and others will drive market growth. For instance, according to an article titled 'Eczema' published by StatPearls in August 2021, the lifetime prevalence of eczema in children is between 15-30% and 2-10% in adults. Furthermore, according to the same source, approximately 50% of patients with severe atopic dermatitis will develop asthma, and 75% will develop allergic rhinitis. These are the certain factors that propel the market growth.

• Increase in the access to health insurance

Large hospitals and diagnostic laboratories have a larger share of this market because of their large capital budgets. Increasing healthcare expenditure as a result of high healthcare service costs is significantly contributing to the growth of the allergy diagnostics market. Furthermore, the governments of several economies are providing reimbursements and healthcare insurance plans to increase consumer flow in the allergy diagnostics market around the world.

Opportunities

• • Use of mHealth in allergy diagnosis

The use of mHealth for rhinitis diagnosis is currently limited, with only a few mHealth tools for allergic rhinitis (AR) diagnosis published in peer-reviewed journals. Recent advancements in integrated biosensors, wireless communication, and power harvesting techniques have resulted in a new breed of point-of-care devices. However, AR is a very common disease. Any diagnostic device connected to a smartphone (For instance, peak nasal inspiratory flow metres or intranasal biosensors) would have to be inexpensive to be affordable.

• Rise in R&D activities

The increasing emphasis of companies on R&D activities to develop novel diagnostic products, tests, or kits to meet high unmet medical needs is impacting market growth significantly. For instance, Omega Diagnostics received approval from the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) in November 2020 for Omega's food detective test in China. HYCOR Biomedical and Changsha Haike Biotechnology Co., Ltd. also registered their ALLEOS 2000 allergy testing system in China Hunan Medical Products Administration in August 2020.

Restraints/Challenges

• Premium costs associated with allergy diagnostic instruments

Several allergy diagnostic devices, such as luminometers, blot analyzers, scanners, ELISA analyzers, and immunoassay analyzers, are regularly updated by market participants. Because they have more advanced features and functions, these instruments are more expensive (the price of each instrument varies based on its accuracy, flexibility, and TAT). Immunoassay analyzers, for example, cost between $10,000 and $20,000, while luminometers cost between $3,000 and $14,000. ELISA readers that are semi-automated cost between $2,000 and $5,000, while fully automated analyzers cost over $14,000. Furthermore, operating this equipment incurs additional expenses such as maintenance and insurance, laboratory supervision, and overheads (such as utilities, space, and administration).
