Molecular Diagnostics Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019
M2 - Mon Feb 24, 5:47AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/x9dvt9/molecular) has announced the addition of the "Molecular Diagnostics Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019" report to their offering. Molecular diagnostics primarily refers to a class of diagnostic test that analyzes nucleic acids or proteins at a molecular level. This class of diagnostics is identified as rapidly evolving and fastest growing segment of in-vitro diagnostics industry. Moreover, it is also considered as the most attractive and well established market for clinical applications. Traditionally, usage of molecular diagnostics was limited due to requirement of highly skilled professionals and high cost of tests. But reduction in cost per sample analysis and labor cost, improvements in automation and introduction of advanced technologies has expanded the usage of molecular diagnostics in wide range of applications. The market for molecular diagnostics has expanded since 1990's with the introduction of PCR test for HIV and Chlamydia Trachomatis/Neisseria Gonorrhoeae (CT/NG). It is estimated that in the U.S. over 600 laboratories and 200 independent laboratories perform molecular diagnostics test to simplify and accelerate the testing process. Nowadays, molecular diagnostics tests are widely being adopted for testing infectious diseases (HIV, HCV, HPV HAI and others), genetic diseases, cancer testing and HLA testing. Similarly, molecular diagnostic kits are being used for blood donor screening and pharmacogenetics testing. Growth of this market in various segments is fuelled by the rise in incidence of chronic infections, growing geriatric population, increasing investments in R&D and increasing demand for personalized medicines. Currently, molecular diagnostics revenue is dominated by infectious diseases, capturing more 50% of the market share. Furthermore, growth of this segment will be triggered by rising incidences of hospital acquired infections (HAI) and thus HAI testing market is expected to witness a fastest growth rate in near future. This market is poised to grow at a CAGR of 15.1% from 2013-2019. HAI is being identified as a major cause of death and morbidity among hospitalized patients. It is estimated that each year approximately 14,000 Americans are diagnosed with C.difficile hospital acquired infection each year. Therefore, hospitals continue to adopt HAI testing as more virulent strains of these infections continue to surge. Similarly, rising cancer incidence is expected to drive the market for oncology testing and HPV testing during the analysis period. Next generation sequencing is growing rapidly and is estimated to emerge as the fastest growing segment. The technique is gaining importance owing to its rapid turnaround time, sensitivity and reduction in cost of sequencing. PCR market that accounted for a maximum share of the total molecular diagnostics market in 2012 is estimated to decline due to evolution of high throughput sequencing techniques.

French Automated Microbiology Market 2014: Molecular Diagnostics, Microbial Identification, Antibiotic Susceptibility, Blood Culture, Urine Screening, Immunodiagnostics
M2 - Tue Feb 18, 6:57AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wrb6dh/french_automated) has announced the addition of the "French Automated Microbiology Market 2014: Molecular Diagnostics, Microbial Identification, Antibiotic Susceptibility, Blood Culture, Urine Screening, Immunodiagnostics" report to their offering. The introduction of automated microbiology instrumentation has been delayed by a number of intrinsic and technical problems. The diffusion of automated microbiology systems, once the technology was developed, has not matched that of other automated laboratory technologies. The acquisition of automation in microbiology has been slowed by forces less easily identifiable than the effects of various reimbursement plans. Some laboratorians still believe that current instrumentation is not the ultimate technology and expect better automation on the horizon. The driving force behind the need for rapid reporting of microbiological test results is the clinical relevance in a time of financial austerity, a time when cost and health care effectiveness to the patient and diagnostician looms ever larger, and where after-the-fact results at high expense are coming under severe scrutiny worldwide.

Hospital Acquired Disease Testing Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019
M2 - Tue Feb 18, 3:59AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/tc2bz6/hospital_acquired) has announced the addition of the "Hospital Acquired Disease Testing Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019" report to their offering. Nosocomial infections, most commonly called as hospital acquired diseases or healthcare associated infections (HAI),are acquired by patients during their stay in hospitals. Since the last decade, remarkable prevalence of nosocomial infections has been observed worldwide and its morbidity rate is rapidly growing. Patients with weak immune system, those exposed to improper hygiene conditions in hospitals, the high neonatal population in developing countries and elderly patients worldwide are highly susceptible to nosocomial infection. Aging of population is one of the major factors that has increased the incidence rate of hospital acquired diseases worldwide. Growing morbidity rate has resulted in a rise in nosocomial infection mortality globally. Contraction of nosocomial infection prolongs hospital stay of patients and ultimately the cost to the patients as well as the hospital increases. Though various diagnostic tests are available in the market for detection of infectious microorganisms, approximately 70% of such pathogens are becoming resistant to at least one of the anti-bacterial drugs most commonly used in nosocomial infection treatments, thus creating a challenge for healthcare professionals to treat such patients. Increasing resistance to commonly used antibiotics has created a demand for microorganism specific detection test for better assessment by healthcare professionals in order to provide appropriate treatment. Molecular diagnostics, PCR, microarrays and solid phase hybridization are some of the major techniques used for the diagnosis of nosocomial infections. The development of nucleic acid testing (NAT) diagnostic products and related platforms have enabled the entry of many players in the hospital acquired disease testing market. Nosocomial infections are mainly categorized into six types depending on the kind of infection, namely, hospital acquired pneumonia, urinary tract infection, blood stream infection, surgical site infection, MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus)infection and other miscellaneous variants which include gastro intestinal infection, cardiovascular infections, respiratory infections and infections related to joints. Occurrence of hospital acquired UTI is highest in all types of nosocomial infections,leading to the highest market share by revenue of hospital acquired UTI testing segment in the overall HAI testing market. Geographically, North America dominates the global hospital acquired disease testing market and is followed by Europe. Government initiatives to control and prevent nosocomial infection in these regions and their rigorous implementation to reduce the disease morbidity rate is driving the growth of nosocomial infection testing market. Asia-Pacific is a lucrative market for HAI testing owing to increased incidence of hospital acquired disease testing in countries like China and India and the growing need to reduce healthcare expenditure by both, the healthcare institutions and patients equally. Contribution of Asian countries to the hospital acquired disease testing market is expected to increase further as the medical tourism industry flourishes in this region.

Molecular Diagnostics Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019
M2 - Mon Feb 24, 5:47AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/x9dvt9/molecular) has announced the addition of the "Molecular Diagnostics Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019" report to their offering. Molecular diagnostics primarily refers to a class of diagnostic test that analyzes nucleic acids or proteins at a molecular level. This class of diagnostics is identified as rapidly evolving and fastest growing segment of in-vitro diagnostics industry. Moreover, it is also considered as the most attractive and well established market for clinical applications. Traditionally, usage of molecular diagnostics was limited due to requirement of highly skilled professionals and high cost of tests. But reduction in cost per sample analysis and labor cost, improvements in automation and introduction of advanced technologies has expanded the usage of molecular diagnostics in wide range of applications. The market for molecular diagnostics has expanded since 1990's with the introduction of PCR test for HIV and Chlamydia Trachomatis/Neisseria Gonorrhoeae (CT/NG). It is estimated that in the U.S. over 600 laboratories and 200 independent laboratories perform molecular diagnostics test to simplify and accelerate the testing process. Nowadays, molecular diagnostics tests are widely being adopted for testing infectious diseases (HIV, HCV, HPV HAI and others), genetic diseases, cancer testing and HLA testing. Similarly, molecular diagnostic kits are being used for blood donor screening and pharmacogenetics testing. Growth of this market in various segments is fuelled by the rise in incidence of chronic infections, growing geriatric population, increasing investments in R&D and increasing demand for personalized medicines. Currently, molecular diagnostics revenue is dominated by infectious diseases, capturing more 50% of the market share. Furthermore, growth of this segment will be triggered by rising incidences of hospital acquired infections (HAI) and thus HAI testing market is expected to witness a fastest growth rate in near future. This market is poised to grow at a CAGR of 15.1% from 2013-2019. HAI is being identified as a major cause of death and morbidity among hospitalized patients. It is estimated that each year approximately 14,000 Americans are diagnosed with C.difficile hospital acquired infection each year. Therefore, hospitals continue to adopt HAI testing as more virulent strains of these infections continue to surge. Similarly, rising cancer incidence is expected to drive the market for oncology testing and HPV testing during the analysis period. Next generation sequencing is growing rapidly and is estimated to emerge as the fastest growing segment. The technique is gaining importance owing to its rapid turnaround time, sensitivity and reduction in cost of sequencing. PCR market that accounted for a maximum share of the total molecular diagnostics market in 2012 is estimated to decline due to evolution of high throughput sequencing techniques.

French Automated Microbiology Market 2014: Molecular Diagnostics, Microbial Identification, Antibiotic Susceptibility, Blood Culture, Urine Screening, Immunodiagnostics
M2 - Tue Feb 18, 6:57AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/wrb6dh/french_automated) has announced the addition of the "French Automated Microbiology Market 2014: Molecular Diagnostics, Microbial Identification, Antibiotic Susceptibility, Blood Culture, Urine Screening, Immunodiagnostics" report to their offering. The introduction of automated microbiology instrumentation has been delayed by a number of intrinsic and technical problems. The diffusion of automated microbiology systems, once the technology was developed, has not matched that of other automated laboratory technologies. The acquisition of automation in microbiology has been slowed by forces less easily identifiable than the effects of various reimbursement plans. Some laboratorians still believe that current instrumentation is not the ultimate technology and expect better automation on the horizon. The driving force behind the need for rapid reporting of microbiological test results is the clinical relevance in a time of financial austerity, a time when cost and health care effectiveness to the patient and diagnostician looms ever larger, and where after-the-fact results at high expense are coming under severe scrutiny worldwide.

Hospital Acquired Disease Testing Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019
M2 - Tue Feb 18, 3:59AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/tc2bz6/hospital_acquired) has announced the addition of the "Hospital Acquired Disease Testing Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2013 - 2019" report to their offering. Nosocomial infections, most commonly called as hospital acquired diseases or healthcare associated infections (HAI),are acquired by patients during their stay in hospitals. Since the last decade, remarkable prevalence of nosocomial infections has been observed worldwide and its morbidity rate is rapidly growing. Patients with weak immune system, those exposed to improper hygiene conditions in hospitals, the high neonatal population in developing countries and elderly patients worldwide are highly susceptible to nosocomial infection. Aging of population is one of the major factors that has increased the incidence rate of hospital acquired diseases worldwide. Growing morbidity rate has resulted in a rise in nosocomial infection mortality globally. Contraction of nosocomial infection prolongs hospital stay of patients and ultimately the cost to the patients as well as the hospital increases. Though various diagnostic tests are available in the market for detection of infectious microorganisms, approximately 70% of such pathogens are becoming resistant to at least one of the anti-bacterial drugs most commonly used in nosocomial infection treatments, thus creating a challenge for healthcare professionals to treat such patients. Increasing resistance to commonly used antibiotics has created a demand for microorganism specific detection test for better assessment by healthcare professionals in order to provide appropriate treatment. Molecular diagnostics, PCR, microarrays and solid phase hybridization are some of the major techniques used for the diagnosis of nosocomial infections. The development of nucleic acid testing (NAT) diagnostic products and related platforms have enabled the entry of many players in the hospital acquired disease testing market. Nosocomial infections are mainly categorized into six types depending on the kind of infection, namely, hospital acquired pneumonia, urinary tract infection, blood stream infection, surgical site infection, MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus)infection and other miscellaneous variants which include gastro intestinal infection, cardiovascular infections, respiratory infections and infections related to joints. Occurrence of hospital acquired UTI is highest in all types of nosocomial infections,leading to the highest market share by revenue of hospital acquired UTI testing segment in the overall HAI testing market. Geographically, North America dominates the global hospital acquired disease testing market and is followed by Europe. Government initiatives to control and prevent nosocomial infection in these regions and their rigorous implementation to reduce the disease morbidity rate is driving the growth of nosocomial infection testing market. Asia-Pacific is a lucrative market for HAI testing owing to increased incidence of hospital acquired disease testing in countries like China and India and the growing need to reduce healthcare expenditure by both, the healthcare institutions and patients equally. Contribution of Asian countries to the hospital acquired disease testing market is expected to increase further as the medical tourism industry flourishes in this region.
