Loop-mediated Isothermal Amplification Market Trends

Growth Drivers

• Increasing Investment in Research and Development – It was noticed that global research and development spending has more than tripled in real terms since 2000, rising from USD 677 billion to USD 2.2 trillion in 2019. The market is estimated to gain a significant boost over the forecast period owing to increasing investment in the R&D sector of the pharmaceutical industry. Along with that, the high expenditure made in the field of the healthcare sector is supporting laboratory tests to provide quick and more accurate results, which are anticipated to bring growth opportunities for the market in the upcoming years.

• Rising Expenditure in the Healthcare Sector – With the high prevalence of diseases around the world, people everywhere are propelled to spend more money on diagnostics and treatment processes that are forecasted to increase the utilization rate of loop-mediated isothermal amplification. Moreover, the recent government investment in the healthcare sector is also anticipated to bring new chances for market expansion in the future. As per the World Health Organization, global health spending has increased overall during the previous 20 years, doubling in real terms, reaching USD 8.5 trillion in 2019 and 9.8% of GDP up, from 8.5 percent in 2000.

• Growing Prevalence of Pandemic Diseases – On October 19, 2022, the WHO received reports of 623,000,396 confirmed cases of COVID-19 worldwide, including 6,550,033 fatalities.

• Rising Malaria Infection - Globally, there were presumably 241 million cases of malaria in 2020, and 627 000 deaths from malaria were estimated in 2020.

• High Investment in Technological Advancement –Before the pandemic, investments in innovation were at an all-time high. In 2019, R&D grew at an unprecedented rate of 8.5 percent in the United States. Moreover, Switzerland, Sweden, the U.S., and the U.K. are still at the top of the list for innovation and have been for the previous three years.

Challenges

• Complex Amplification Process
• High Cost of LAMP – Owing to the advanced technology, the costs of loop-mediated isothermal amplification are high. As a result, the population with middle income is anticipated to push farther away from adopting the technique.
• Lack of Versatility of Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP)
