Description

The microplate reader market in the Asia Pacific region was valued at approximately US$ 136.08 million in 2023 and is projected to grow to US$ 214.50 million by 2031, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9% during the forecast period from 2023 to 2031.

Growth Drivers: Emphasis on Point-of-Care Testing

A significant factor driving the growth of the Asia Pacific microplate reader market is the increasing emphasis on point-of-care testing (POCT). The adoption of POCT is on the rise, leading to a growing demand for portable microplate readers. These compact devices enable rapid diagnostic testing, which is crucial for enhancing patient care in both hospital settings and outpatient facilities. POCT allows for tests to be conducted near the patient, providing quick results that facilitate immediate clinical decisions. As healthcare systems prioritize timely diagnosis and treatment, the demand for microplate readers and associated technologies is expected to increase.

The trend towards POCT highlights the necessity for efficient microplate readers that can operate effectively in rapid testing environments. Innovations in portable and user-friendly microplate readers are making POCT more practical. For instance, advancements such as miniaturized devices that can perform multiple assays simultaneously are expanding the implementation of POCT across various healthcare settings. A notable example is the launch of a portable microplate reader by Enzo in November 2020, designed for use with their ELISA and other assay kits. This compact device utilizes solid-state technology, allowing it to be deployed in diverse environments, thus facilitating the transition of POCT from centralized clinical laboratories to locations closer to patient care. Such innovations are creating new growth opportunities as healthcare providers seek efficient solutions for rapid diagnostics, making the increasing focus on POCT a significant market opportunity for microplate readers.

Overview of the Asia Pacific Microplate Reader Market

The Asia Pacific microplate reader market is segmented into several key regions, including China, Japan, India, Australia, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia Pacific. This market is anticipated to experience the highest CAGR in the forecast period, with China, India, and Japan being the primary contributors to its growth. The increasing demand for microplate readers, coupled with a growing emphasis on laboratory automation, is driving this expansion.

In Japan, the rising prevalence of chronic diseases, along with substantial investments in research and development, is propelling the demand for laboratory automation technologies. For example, in October 2021, Nightingale Health Japan KK, a subsidiary of Nightingale Health Plc, announced a long-term collaboration with BioBank Japan to conduct research aimed at identifying unique disease risk factors in the Japanese population and advancing personalized medicine. This collaboration began with a pilot phase in November 2020, focusing on the development of technologies for large DNA molecules. Additionally, market players in Japan are enhancing their sales and distribution channels, creating a favorable environment for the microplate reader market in the country during the forecast period. In June 2020, ITOCHU Corporation launched an advanced pharmaceutical services platform that includes whole genome analysis, further driving the demand for microplate readers in Japan.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
