Rapid diagnostic tests are easy-to-use tests that provide quick results, usually 30 in minutes or less. These are quick field tests that can be performed in under 30 minutes and detect the presence of a pathogen quickly and accurately. Rapid results enable healthcare professionals/workers to make informed decisions quickly and protect the lives of their patients at the community level.
Market Dynamics:
Rise in prevalence of infectious/chronic diseases, outbreak of COVID-19 (pandemic), rise in usage of point-of-care diagnostics, favorable government initiatives, and rising awareness among people regarding early diagnosis are major factors expected to boost growth of the global rapid diagnostics market during the forecast period.
For instance, in March 2022, Brain Chemistry Labs and Arlington Scientific teamed up to develop an easy-to-use rapid test kit. The rapid test kit will detect the presence of β-methylamino-L-Alanine (BMAA), a toxin present in cyanobacterial blooms, which causes a fatal paralytic disease called Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
