Abstract Table of Contents Related Reports

High prevalence of infectious diseases and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) continue to drive the automated and rapid tests market, as need for quicker, higher volume and more accurate methods of testing gains importance. With humans and bacteria locked in a perennial biological warfare, there exists a perpetual need for new and advanced rapid microbial testing methods and instruments. Hitherto growth in the automated microbiological test systems market stemmed from laboratories worldwide embarking on the transition from manual to automated forms of testing.

Technology developments and changes have initiated sweeping changes in the market for automated and rapid microbiological tests. With probe tests threatening the survival of immunoassay based rapid tests and with advances in automated microbiological testing systems promising potential opportunities, the landscape is fraught with a unique mixture of opportunities and related threats. The new methods offer greater speed, accuracy, specificity and sensitivity than can be achieved with conventional culturing or immunoassay methods. Molecular diagnostics is the new enabling technology of numerous next generation rapid microbiology test kits.

These and other market data and trends are presented in “Automated and Rapid Microbiological Tests: A Worldwide Market Review” by BizAcumen LLC. Our reports are designed to be most comprehensive in geographic coverage and vertical market analyses.
