Malaria Diagnostics Industry Overview
The global malaria diagnostics market size is projected to reach USD 1.2 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 5.4%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising prevalence of the tropical disease in endemic countries, development of novel diagnostic techniques, and rising investments by regional governments and private investors are expected to propel market growth. Malaria is one of the most widespread life-threatening diseases, commonly occurring in the tropical and subtropical regions due to changing climate, low economic growth, underdeveloped healthcare infrastructure, and lack of access to advanced treatment.
Malaria Diagnostics Market Segmentation
Grand View Research has segmented the global malaria diagnostics market on the basis of technology and region:
Based on the Technology Insights, the market is segmented into Microscopy, Rapid Diagnostic Tests (RDTs), Molecular Diagnostic Tests.
- The Rapid Diagnostic Tests (RDTs) segment dominated the market and accounted for a revenue share of 53.7% in 2021.
- Microscopy was the second-largest segment owing to intermittent usage of the technique for disease diagnosis. It is one of the traditional and most reliable methods for the diagnosis of the disease. According to the estimates from WHO, over 204 million microscopic malarial tests were conducted globally.
- Additionally, the parasite density can also be quantified to accordingly design treatment plans. The molecular diagnostic test segment is expected to witness the fastest growth over the forecast period due to the accurate diagnosis offered by these tests.
- Molecular diagnostic tests include conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and quantitative or Real Time-PCR (qPCR). The usage of qPCR using DNA extracted from blood samples has been used to detect low parasite counts or mixed infections. These tests are accurate, highly sensitive, and capable of detecting low parasite count.
- An RDT is another method used for detecting specific malaria antigens in the blood sample. Estimates from WHO indicate that over 312 million RDTs were delivered globally in the year 2016.
- According to National malaria control program reports and sales data from manufacturers, 225 million P. falciparum tests were delivered in Africa, while the remaining were combination tests for P. falciparum, P. malariae, P. ovale, and P. vivax.
