The growing geriatric population drives the polymerase chain reaction market, the number of hospitals, technical improvements, and the increased frequency of infectious diseases. Polymerase chain reaction technologies are being driven by technology improvements, consumer acceptance of personalized medicine, and increased awareness of advanced procedures, accelerating the polymerase chain reaction market growth. The COVID-19 epidemic has caused the sector to grow exponentially in 2020 and 2021. The introduction of technologically advanced PCR tests into the Market has increased due to the development of novel rt-PCR tests for detecting SARS-CoV-2 infection and increased research and development activities to investigate the disease. For example, in June 2021, F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. announced that the US FoodU.S.and Drug Administration had approved the Cobas SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid test to detect asymptomatic and symptomatic people in point-of-care settings. Similarly, a large number of businesses have acquired global approval for innovative PCR assays for the identification of SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, declining demand for COVID-19 disorders is expected to stifle growth in the next years.

The rising number of infectious diseases and chronic and genetic disorders is likely to drive up demand during the forecast period. According to the CDC, chronic diseases such as cancer and diabetes and chronic renal and respiratory disorders such as asthma account for 7 out of every 10 fatalities in the United States annually. Furthermore, the number of people suffering from the congenital cardiac disease is increasing, necessitating the search for molecular diagnostic techniques to make reliable diagnoses.

Polymerase Chain Reaction Market: COVID-19 Impact

COVID-19 can impact the economy in three ways:  disrupting distribution networks, directly impacting medication supply and demand, and having a financial impact on enterprises and financial markets. Several countries, including China, India, Egypt,  the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and others, are experiencing difficulties moving pharmaceuticals from one location to another due to nationwide lockdowns. However, the COVID-19 pandemic had a favorable impact on the worldwide polymerase chain reaction market due to the use of the polymerase chain reaction technique in covid-19 detection. For example, according to PubMed data from January 2020, zoonotic transmission of the SARS coronavirus from animals to people was found using traditional Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) techniques that target a highly conserved sequence among coronaviruses. Initially, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assays were employed to identify coronaviruses in bats.

Polymerase Chain Reaction Market: Drivers

Increasing Number of Patients for Chronic and Infectious Diseases is Growing Market

A polymerase chain reaction is rapidly employed in clinical infectious illness diagnosis, nucleic acid amplification, paternity testing, DNA fingerprinting, infectious disease detection and diagnosis, quality control, and customized medicine. For example, according to Indian Council of Medical Research in March 2022, there will be a 12% increase in cancer incidence in India by 2027. Breast cancer, cervical cancer, and oral cancer are the most frequent types of cancer in India. Furthermore, according to data published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information in May 2022, the estimated cancer burden in India for 2021 was 26.7 million, projected to be 29.8 million in 2025.

Advances Techniques to Accelerate Market Growth

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is an enzyme-driven in vitro procedure for amplifying a small section of DNA. Despite this amplification capability, the technology's accompanying gear constraints prevent it from attaining its full potential. Technological improvements and increased demand for novel products have resulted in the shrinking of devices on the Market. These tiny gadgets provide patients and healthcare practitioners with various clinical benefits. The launch of novel gadgets by leading market participants is expected to drive the global Market over the forecast period. For example, Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. announced the release of the QX ONE Droplet Digital PCR System in November 2019, which is intended for drug development, manufacturing quality control, and other highly critical testing conditions.

Polymerase Chain Reaction Market: Restraints

High Assay Costs, Combined With Lack Of Awareness in Developing Countries, are Stifling Market Growth

Despite the rising prevalence of infectious diseases worldwide, various limitations limit diagnostic instrument adoption. One of the primary problems impeding this Market's growth is a lack of awareness about the technology sector in low-income countries. Furthermore, the high cost of tests performed in developing countries is anticipated to reduce device adoption, limiting the market growth. According to the Skytrax 2021 report, a test in Kansai, Japan, costs roughly USD 404, whereas a test in New York, USA, costs around USD 179. As a result, higher assay costs are expected to reduce test uptake during the forecast period.
