| Advances in immunological approaches are fueling the demand for reagents, kits, and instruments in molecular analysis. Due to the immense potential of clinical diagnostics, the market for immunoassays has tremendous growth possibilities but is currently stymied in that immunoassay research products are failing to keep pace with the revenue growth of major pharmaceutical companies. Driven by high-throughput applications and the need for miniaturization, immunoassays have expanded the number of pertinent targets and fluorescent detection methodologies available. Bead-based protocols have also contributed to the increase in the widespread use of immunoassays, furthering revenue growth in such areas as molecular diagnostics. Immunoassays are expected to comprise 75% of the molecular diagnostics market by 2009, an increase of approximately $6 billion in in vitro diagnostic technologies alone. The 2005 Immunoassay Report is composed of an overview of the immunoassay market and the to the 2005 Immunoassay Survey, containing questions about the use of immunoassays and supplier information, as well as purchasing trends in this research area. The survey was completed by over 640 researchers currently using immunoassays in their research or work. The report also includes a comprehensive discussion of the survey results and conclusions and recommendations drawn from both an immunoassay market analysis and the survey data. With this information, suppliers will be better able to focus product development in areas of particular interest to current immunoassay researchers and to target their marketing and advertising campaigns in specific product areas, as well as direct customer attention to their specific immunoassay product materials. A more thorough understanding of the immunoassay market will permit companies to plan realistic goals for directing growth in the immunoassay product arena and forecast their plans for increasing immunoassay market share more accurately. Survey Methodology The 2005 Immunoassay Survey consisted of 24 questions. Of these, 14 included “other” as an answer choice, providing an opportunity for survey participants to specify and elaborate their answers. Demographical information was gathered from 5 questions and from addresses submitted by survey responders. The survey was administered on-line from November 14th - 18th, 2005. |
