By | August 22, 2022

 Increasing prevalence of diseases to drive the growth of global rapid test kit market in the forecast period, 2022-2026.

According to TechSci Research report, Rapid Test Kit Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition, Opportunity and Forecast, 2016-2026” the global rapid test kit market stood at USD23.44 Billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a steady CAGR of 8.14% during the forecast period on account of growing prevalence of diseases. The growing demand for rapid test kit from various point of care diagnostic centers, homecare, among others is expected to support the market growth through 2026. The growing prevalence of various chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases has significantly increased the patient pool suffering from these diseases worldwide. This in turn has significantly increased the demand for various rapid test kits.

These rapid test kits can be used for disease diagnosis and monitoring at home and at various healthcare facilities such as hospitals & clinics, point of care centers, etc. However, the high cost of rapid testing kits leads to affordability constraints, especially in Asia Pacific, South America and Middle East & Africa. Also, poor reimbursement scenario related to rapid test kits across different countries, especially in the developing and under-developed countries, is further expected to restrict and slow down the market growth. Also, stringent regulatory scenario and policies for launching and marketing rapid test kits are expected to significantly hamper the market growth.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is very strict when it comes to classifying diagnostic kits and medical devices in various categories and giving approvals for them. Also, countries that do not follow FDA but have their own regulatory associations are also very strict for product approvals and their market launch. The regulatory framework is quite strict when it comes to product recalls. Furthermore, lack of awareness pertaining to the availability and use of rapid test kits among the population, especially in the developing and under-developed countries, is expected to hamper the market growth during the forecast period.

The global rapid test kit market is segmented based on type, product type, technology, duration, application, end user, company and regional distribution. In terms of product type, the market can be divided into over-the-counter rapid test kit and professional rapid test kit. The over-the-counter rapid test kit segment dominated the market in 2020 with a share of around 69.35% on account of the fact that these tests are easy to use in the “near-patient setting” and are a cost-effective alternative to expensive laboratory testing. In terms of technology, the market can be categorized into lateral flow assays, solid phase, agglutination and immunospot assay.

The lateral flow assays technology is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period as it is simple to perform and has low manufacturing costs. Lateral flow assays are used across hospitals & clinics, diagnostic centers, and ambulatory care centers for qualitative and quantitative identification of specific antigens, antibodies, and gene amplification products. Also, the use of lateral flow assays in the early detection of COVID-19 has further opened opportunities for growth of this segment. This has got the focus of various companies in developing rapid test kits based on lateral flow assay technology. For instance, in March 2020, Ozo Life announced the launch of its OZO COVID-19 Rapid Test Kits based on lateral flow assay technology.
