The influenza diagnostic market is expected to reach $1.74 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 7%. The major factor driving the market is increasing funding for research on influenza diagnostics. Addressing the public health impact of influenza disease requires a proper understanding of the virus and its effect on individuals and populations. Therefore, it is important to accelerate the pace of scientific research progress that can have the greatest public health impact. Many public and private health organizations, researchers, health professionals, biopharmaceutical companies have maximized the spending for research funds or grants to reduce the risk of the emergence of pandemic influenza. For instance, in 2019, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, has initiated the Collaborative Influenza Vaccine Innovation Centers (CIVICs) program, a new network of research centers that will work together to develop influenza vaccines. NIAID will provide up to approximately $51 million in total first-year funding for the program, which is designed to support the CIVICs program centers over seven years. The variability in sensitivity and specificity among the influenza diagnostic tests is restraining the growth of the market. In most rapid flu tests, there are difficulties in identifying patients with influenza. The sensitivity of rapid flu tests ranges from 10-80% across various patient populations. Most diagnostic tests show an increase in the rate of false-negative results during low influenza virus activity, which often leads to an incorrect diagnosis. Thus, the variability in sensitivity and specificity is restraining the growth of the influenza diagnostic market. Rapid influenza diagnostic tests (RIDTs) are increasingly being implemented in influenza diagnostics. RIDTs are immunoassays which can identify the presence of influenza A and B viral nucleoprotein antigens in respiratory specimens and display the result in a qualitative way (positive vs. negative). It can yield results in a clinically relevant time frame of less than approximately 15 minutes and diagnose patients, who are present with influenza-like illness, mainly if it is performed within the first four days of the onset of symptoms. The rising popularity of RIDT is due to the benefits such as simple to use and rapid diagnosis.

The global blood transfusion diagnostics market is expected to grow from $3.82 billion in 2020 to $4.18 billion in 2021 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4%. The growth is mainly due to the companies resuming their operations and adapting to the new normal while recovering from the COVID-19 impact, which had earlier led to restrictive containment measures involving social distancing, remote working, and the closure of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges. The blood transfusion diagnostics market is expected to reach $5.28 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 6%. Patients undergoing surgical procedures need blood transfusion to replace the lost blood during the procedure. Blood transfusion diagnostics are used during the procedures to screen the blood before transferring it to the patient, and will otherwise increases incidence of infectious disease. According to Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OCED) in the UK, there were 491,604 surgical procedures in 2016 compared to 354,870 in 2006, a 38% increase. This increase in number of procedures will thereby drive the need for blood transfusion diagnostics. Developing and underdeveloped countries lack adequate blood banks, proper medical equipment for blood transfusion, adequate conditions for the storage of blood and low supply for a high demand of blood. Hospitals are not equipped with proper amenities that help provide hygienic and safe transfusions. For example, according to a research conducted by IndiaSpend, around 1.18 million units of blood was wasted during storage in the form of discoloration, bacterial contamination and expiry due to outdating. The poor infrastructure hampers the growth of the blood transfusion diagnostic market. The growing demand for advanced diagnostic measures and growing prevalence of infectious diseases associated with pathogens such as bacteria & viruses increase the preference for nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT/NAT) to increase blood safety, improve efficiency and reduce turnaround time of the results. NAT is a technique that helps detect a particular nucleic acid, virus, or bacteria which acts as a pathogen in blood, tissue, or urine. NAT is highly sensitive and specific for viral nucleic acids and amplifies the region of targeted viral DNA and detects them earlier than the other traditional methods and narrows the period of infectious diseases. For example, XCRP Diagnostic Inc. and Luminex Corporations entered into a licensing agreement of XCR Diagnostic's Xtreme Chain Reaction Nucleic Acid Amplification Technology. In this deal, Luminex got the exclusive rights to use the XCR Diagnostic's NAAT technology for their future molecular diagnostic portfolio. The blood transfusion diagnostics market is highly regulated by governing bodies such as USFDA (the USA Food and Drug Administration), and Medicines and Healthcare products Agency (MHRA). For instance, the manufacturers and service providers in the USA must comply with the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) Regulations that have been published in the first chapter title 21 of Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). Part 600 of CFR 21 primarily focuses on the established standards like retention samples conditions, temperature to be maintained during shipment, sterilization of equipment's and role and duties of the inspector to inspect the laboratories.

Molecular diagnostics devices are used to diagnose infectious diseases and perform screening by detecting specific sequences in DNA or RNA at molecular level. It helps doctors to prescribe more accurate therapeutic interventions in the early stages of a disease. This market is segmented into instruments, reagents and consumables. The global molecular diagnostics devices and equipment market is expected to decline from $18.07 billion in 2020 to $13.57 billion in 2021 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -24.9%. The change in growth trend is mainly due to the companies stabilizing their output after catering to the demand that grew exponentially during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The market is expected to reach $19.01 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 8.8%. The growth in molecular diagnostic devices and equipment market is attributed to factors such as rapid rise in various bacterial and viral epidemics. The increase in the spread of diseases increases the demand for early and improved diagnostic methods. In order to improve the technology to enable early diagnosis of such diseases, Government and different organization’s extend their financial support towards the major key players of the industry. For example, according to the reports from Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) US, as on March 2019, 72 Zika virus disease cases were reported in U.S state and 148 Zika virus disease cases reported in US Territories. Thus, the rise of such chronic diseases serves as a prime driver for the players in the industry to develop more accurate and sophisticated diagnostic devices and equipment’s. Following the increase in demand of early diagnosis of Zika virus, Co-Diagnostics, Inc. in February 2019 launched its first multi-disease molecular diagnostic test for dengue, chikungunya and Zika. The regulatory process involving approval of molecular diagnostic tests is often slow. The lack of clear definition coupled with constant changes in the regulations is a challenge for companies developing these kits. In the developing nations such as India and China lack of well-defined regulatory framework negatively impacts the market, irrespective of the presence of a large population. In the US market, because of the changes in the rules and regulations, the products already in the market may also be required to go through Food and Drug Administration (FDA)’s pre-marketing approval process. For example, CLIA (Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments Act) in the US certifies the validity of a laboratory based tests but it does not regulate the clinical validity of molecular diagnostic tests. This means that it does not control whether these results are clinically correct. This argument puts a restraint to the industry and opens an argument that FDA should play a greater role in overseeing laboratories. The major players in the molecular diagnostic industry are focusing on developing automated solutions for devices and equipment’s used for molecular diagnostic processes. Automation of the process will help to enhance productivity and consistency of the whole diagnostic process. Computerisation of the diagnostic process gives reliable and efficient test results that manual testing by various experts does not. The major players of the industry are using nanotechnology based Oral Fluid Nano Sensor Test (OFNASET). The test uses a microfluidic-based nano sensor for the detection of oral cancer biomarkers in saliva. In order to keep up with the trend of automation and accuracy, Roche, created cobas connection modules (CCM) to improve scalability and sample-flow efficiency by allowing samples to automatically move between different systems and instruments. Thus, creating a fully automated work flow. The molecular diagnostic devices in the US are approved by Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH). These diagnostics devices are generally approved with an accompanying assay, in order to evaluate their safety and effectiveness or substantial equivalence with reference to the assays they run and the assay's defined performance parameters. However, the same instruments do not require FDA approval or clearance when used for basic scientific research-purposes. The European regulatory landscape has become more stringent and technically challenging for medical device companies. The introduction of four different risk classes of diagnostic device, i.e. classes A-D. Class A refers to lowest risk tests and class D refers to highest risk test such as HIV testing, blood grouping, and prenatal testing. Most of the genetic testing is classed into class C. The products bearing a CE mark, European approved tests, are safe to use and are in full compliance. In March 2019, Abbott received a CE mark for its Alinity m molecular diagnostic testing machine. This would allow it to sell the product across Europe. Major players in the market are Roche Ltd, Hologic, QIAGEN, Abbott, Danaher Corporation. The countries covered in the global molecular diagnostics devices and equipment market are Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Russia, UK, USA, Australia.

The market is expected to reach $4.27 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 9.3%. The increased likelihood of older people being diagnosed with a disease is driving the number of surgeries such as cardio vascular diseases (CVD), using hemostasis devices. Due to the higher incidence of diseases with advancing age, there is an increase in the number of surgeries in elderly patients nowadays. These hemostasis devices are very efficient in speeding up the natural process of clotting in the blood and can monitor anticoagulation and transfusion therapy guidance in any surgery. According to the American Heart Association report, Americans older than 80 have a high risk of devolving a cardiovascular disease (CVD), around 83% of men and 87.1% of female will be suffering with any form of CVD, therefore, to improve the comfort of the patient and the success rate of surgeries as a result hemostasis device has been implemented widely. The use of hemostasis devices in hospitals or clinics requires a very lengthy approval procedure which is restraining the market. Before hemostasis devices can enter the market for commercial use they have to clear the regulations set by the Code of Federal Regulations (title 21). The process of approval consists firstly identification of the device, secondly classification of the device and finally the date of pre-market approval (PMA) or the notice of completion of prescription drug plan (PDP) is required. It is a very long and time-consuming approval process which discourages new entrants from entering this market. For example, Cardiva medical Inc. had to wait for a processing period of four months before they received approval to change the existing equipment with a newer and modern one.
