These are among the competitors in this field; there are others and there are expected to be more given the growth rates in this area of testing. Indeed, detection of active and latent patient infections by targeting genetic sequences specific to pathogens is the approach used in molecular infectious disease tests. Clinical molecular tests available for infectious disease testing offer a combination of high sensitivity, specificity and low turnaround time advantages.

This has powered this segment for high market growth over other major diagnostic platforms commonly used for infectious disease testing such as immunoassay and ID/AST. Molecular detection platforms are increasingly being recognized for the improved sensitivity and specificity they can offer, even though they are more expensive. The report offers global analysis of the molecular infectious disease diagnostics segment, as well as analysis of subsegments that include CT/NG, HPV, hepatitis, HIV, HAIs, respiratory diseases, and tuberculosis:

It is notable that the first category where molecular diagnostics earned their place was infectious disease. In this category, specific results were needed for treatment decisions. The pioneers in the molecular diagnostics field include Roche Diagnostics, Gen-Probe, and Becton Dickinson. The main focus of the initial molecular diagnostics products was infectious disease including HIV, Chlamydia Trachomatis/Neisseria Gonorrhoea (CT/NG), and TB. These diseases are still critical components of the market. Recently growth in molecular diagnostics methods has also been coming from inherited diseases, cancer, coagulation, and other areas.

The molecular transplant diagnostics space is a competitive market with many companies offering PCR-based and bead-array-based test kits based on the HLA genes that have been characterized. The demand for NGS has been growing in the segment. An HLA test requires that some six genes are screened in parallel, with each displaying about 100 important (known) local variants. This requirement lends itself to technologies such as microarrays and sequencing that can screen for many targets. The report outlines the markets for molecular transplant diagnostics by geography:

The detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or gene variants from tissue, blood, urine and saliva samples can be used to diagnose inherited diseases and genetic disorders as well as determine the risk of disease manifestation or progression. One of the major challenges facing molecular tests for gene based inherited diseases is getting stakeholders including payers, physicians, researchers and regulators to work together to close the gap between research and clinical applicability. World Molecular Diagnostics Market analyzes the developments in most significant markets within molecular inherited disease diagnostics and provides the following market data:
