Product Overview
Gram staining is a screening test used to distinguish the bacterial species into gram positive and gram negative which would help in the diagnosis of different diseases. Over the years, manual staining process has been deployed in labs. However, recently there is development of automated staining system that is used to overcome traditional procedures that lacks reliability and accuracy. The main objective of using gram staining is that it uses fresh stains every time which prevents cross-contamination. The automated gram staining process undergoes all process pertaining to staining such as washing, staining and drying of slides.
Market Size and Forecast
The global gram staining system market is anticipated to expand at significant CAGR during 2017-2027. The global gram staining market is anticipated to reach significant market value during forecast period.

Growth Drivers and Challenges
The automated gram staining system has several advantages such as time reduction, enhanced user interface and improved ability to trace different diseases. Automated gram staining systems enable low cost solution in comparison to the traditional one by decreasing the amount of the waste produced. In recent year, researchers are also engaged in improving the laboratory quality and increasing their standards which further fuels the use of fully automated laboratory instruments including gram staining system. Numerous technical issues associated with the conventional gram staining procedure also enhance the use of automated gram staining systems.
However, there are numerous limitations pertaining to market growth of gram staining systems such as these advanced processes are followed only in the microbiology labs which are high in volume. The manual gram staining is more acceptable as compare automated gram staining.
