Market Definition
A food allergy is when the body's immune system reacts abnormally to certain foods. Allergic reactions are often mild but can be very serious. Food allergies and food intolerances affect almost everyone at some point in their lives. However, there are differences between food allergies and food intolerances. Food allergies cause the body's immune system to become overly sensitive. This is an abnormal reaction triggered by the immune system when certain foods are ingested whereas if the immune system is not involved in the reaction to a food then it is known as food intolerance the most common food allergens are milk, peanuts, eggs, seafood, shellfish, soybeans, wheat, and almonds and many others.
Food safety and quality are of huge concern to the food manufacturing, retail and hospitality industries. Food allergies are increasing in U.S., including the number of allergens, sensitization rates, and prevalence. To control food allergy cases in the region, food allergies must be properly controlled, tested in processed foods, and properly labelled. The most important function of the food allergen laboratories is to test foods for the presence of allergens such as soy, dairy, peanut, and tree nut, among others.
U.S. (State-By-State Analysis) Food Allergen and Intolerance Testing Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:
Drivers
- STRINGENT SAFETY RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR FOOD
Stringent rules and regulations are given by government to ensure food safety that may drive the growth of the market. With the increase in number of food allergies and intolerance cases in the U.S. region, government has taken strict rules and regulations for manufacturing, packaging, testing, quality check and selling of food products. The rules formulated ensures that the food reaching to the consumer end is of minimum quality standards, have proper labelling and has ensured certification for the same. As food safety is the main key factory in food industry, the government has made many certifications mandatory to ensure food safety. These regulations has made manufacturers as well as consumers aware about the food testing as well as food safety that has increased the demand for tested products in the market.
Hence, government has laid down stringent regulations for food and beverages manufacturers to prevent food allergies and intolerance ensure food safety in U.S.
- GROWING AWARENESS AMONG CONSUMERS REGARDING FOOD TOLERANCE AND FOOD ALLERGENS
With the increasing number of food allergy cases and food intolerance issues, more and more consumers are getting aware about the importance of eating safe and healthy food. This has led to the higher demand for good quality and safe food among the individuals which is generating the demand for food allergen and intolerance testing equipment. The increasing incidences of food diseases have prompted consumers to bring about vital changes in their diet and lifestyle, making them more concern regarding food safety. Consumers now are very much aware about the food they eat, and food safety is their prime concern. Food safety is important not only for consumer’s health but also for the entire food industry and regulatory authorities. With the rising concern of food safety among consumers, the government and other authorities are also taking initiatives to promote safe food to the consumers.
Opportunities
- RISING USE OF AUTOMATION IN THE FOOD TOLERANCE AND FOOD TESTING INDUSTRY
The rising cases of food allergies due to the presence of ingredients in food responsible for causing allergies has evolved the food allergen and intolerance testing industry from past few years. The demand for effective and technologically advanced food allergy testing service is increasing owing to rising concern related to food allergies and intolerance. Various traditional food allergen and intolerance testing methods were time consuming and hence the need for technological advanced method is increasing. New automated technologies are developed in order to test the food allergies and intolerance. Nowadays, latest technologies for food allergen and intolerance testing including polymerase chain reaction (PCR), enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), new sensor development method, and others is gaining popularity due to its rapid, sensitive, precise detection of food allergies. The rising automation in food allergen and intolerance testing service among manufacturers to rapidly check the allergens in food as well as in human body will create immense opportunities for the food allergen and intolerance testing.
Restraints/ Challenges
- HIGH INITIAL INVESTMENT FOR INSTALATION OF FOOD TESTING EQUIPMENT
The food testing equipment and systems contain various devices, sensors and consumables which make them quite costly for the food manufacturers and industrialists. Especially the small scale enterprises could not afford the high cost food testing equipment. The high cost associated with the initial installation, allergen and intolerance testing services, culture media, consumables, and others may hamper the growth of the market. Moreover, the diagnostic tools requires proper maintenance on regular basis which increases the overall cost of the diagnostic tools such as PCR, ELISA, biosensor, and others. The diagnostics tools with advanced technology and cost of media is also high, which is anticipated to restrain the growth of the market. All the aforementioned factors may hamper the growth of the food safety testing market. The high cost associated with food allergen and intolerance testing equipment may restrain the growth of the market.
- LACK OF AWARENESS ABOUT LABELLING REGULATIONS
The incidence of food allergies and intolerance has been increasing rapidly in the U.S. from past 20 years. Most of the food allergies are caused due to the presence of different kinds of ingredients in food, which is due to lack of awareness about labelling regulations that may hamper the growth of the US food allergen and intolerance testing market. Processed foods are generally considered inferior to unprocessed foods. They may recommend packaged foods that contain many ingredients, such as artificial colours, flavours, or even other chemical additives. It is thought to be a contributing factor to the food allergy and intolerance. Due to lack of proper training and knowledge among the employees about regulation given by the government may restrict the market growth.
Thus such improper knowledge due to lack of awareness is causing hazards to the food industry. It is very essential that each and every person working in the company should be aware about proper rules and regulations of food manufacturing, labelling, packaging and transportation.
Recent Developments
