Global DNA Sequencing Market - 2021-2028

Global DNA Sequencing Market - 2021-2028

Market Overview

The global DNA sequencing market size was valued at US$ XX million in 2020 and is estimated to reach US$ XX million by 2028, growing at a CAGR of XX % during the forecast period (2021-2028).

The procedure of determining or identifying the sequence of nucleotides within a DNA molecule is known as DNA sequencing. Scientists can use it to sequence genes and genomes. Scientists can obtain information about mutations that cause disease after identifying and analyzing the genes based on sequence information, providing significant medical information.

Market Dynamics

The factors driving the global DNA sequencing market are the increasing technological advancements are expected to drive market growth.

The increasing technological advancements are expected to drive the market growth in the forecast period

From 2D sequencing to DNA sequencing, technological advances in sequencing have come a long way. Platforms such as Illumina/Solexa, ABI/SOLiD, 454/Roche, and Helicos have provided unique opportunities for high-throughput functional genomics research in recent years. Furthermore, biologists and informatics experts have been focusing on developing better genomes, which has been made possible by newer sequencing technologies, novel methods for locating sequences on chromosomes, and improved DNA sequencing software. Modern research in many scientific fields heavily relies on DNA analysis to investigate hypotheses at the genetic and genomic levels. With such a strong reliance on these technologies, it is no surprise that the field of genetic analysis is rapidly advancing and producing more effective and efficient technologies and methods ever. Following the huge success of the Human Genome Project's Sanger sequencing technology, Second Generation Sequencing (SGS) techniques have evolved rapidly. These methods have much higher throughput and, as a result, a lower cost per sequenced base. Furthermore, with the pandemic of COVID-19 infection, next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology is gaining popularity as a routine clinical diagnostic test, which positively impacts the market.

The problems associated with DNA sequencing is expected to hamper the market growth

The function of most of the genes in the human genome is still unknown or only partially understood. As a result, much of the ""information"" found in a human genome sequence is currently useless. Most physicians are not trained to interpret genomic data. A person's genome may contain information about them that they do not want to know. For instance, a patient may undergo genome sequencing to determine the most effective treatment plan for high cholesterol. Researchers discover an unrelated allele that ensures a terminal disease with no effective treatment during the process. A genome sequence contains a massive amount of information. Policies and security measures to ensure the privacy and security of this information are still in the works. Hence, the DNA sequencing market is expected to hamper.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The pandemic of COVID-19 has positively impacted the market due to the increasing demand for DNA sequencing technology in the development of diagnostics and therapeutics. For instance, the FDA authorized the Helix COVID-19 NGS test for use only by Helix Laboratory under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) in August 2020; it is an amplicon-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) test intended for the qualitative detection of nucleic acid from SARS-CoV-2 in upper respiratory specimens from individuals suspected of COVID-19. As a result of the increased DNA sequencing-based research and development activities in developing diagnostic tools or effective COVID-19 therapeutics, the market is expected to maintain its significant growth rate during the forecast period.

Segment Analysis

The Next-generation sequencing segment is expected to drive the market growth in the forecast period

Factors such as the increasing applications of NGS, speed, cost, accuracy, efficient replacement of traditional technologies, and drug discovery applications requiring NGS technology are driving the next-generation sequencing segment. The advantage of this technology is that it is significantly cheaper, faster, and requires significantly less DNA, which aids in the segment's overall growth.

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been an increase in the use of next-generation sequencing technology in infection diagnostics, owing to its high efficiency and accuracy. The FDA granted Ilumina Inc. an emergency use authorization for the COVIDSeq Test, the first COVID-19 diagnostic test utilizing next-generation sequence technology, in June 2020. The benefit of using a next-generation sequencing test is that it generates information about the genomic sequence of the virus present in a sample and detects the virus's presence in the sample. This genomic information can also be used for research. Along with the benefits and growing demand for this technology, the launches and advancements significantly contribute to the segment's growth. For instance, on November 6th, 2019, Thermo Fisher Scientific introduced the Ion Torrent Genexus System, the first fully-integrated next-generation sequencing (NGS) platform with an automated specimen-to-report workflow that delivers results economically a single day. As a result, this segment is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period.

Geographical Analysis

North America region is expected to hold the largest market share in the global DNA sequencing market

The increase in government and non-government funding and support activities, particularly in the United States, and the increasing adoption of advanced technologies are expected to drive the DNA sequencing market in the country.

The rising COVID-19 pandemic is having a positive impact on market growth. For instance, in April 2020, Genome Canada launched the Canadian COVID Genomics Network (CanCOGeN), a newly formed initiative supported by USD 40 million in funding. CanCOGeN, led by Genome Canada, will scale up genomics-based COVID-19 research in Canada in collaboration with the six regional Genome Centers, national and provincial public health labs, genome sequencing centers through CGEn, hospitals, universities, and the private sector.
