The global real-time PCR, digital PCR, and end-point PCR market size is expected to reach USD 7.18 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.2% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. However, the real global real-time PCR, digital PCR, and end-point PCR market without the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7% from 2023 to 2030. Digital PCR is a novel technique for absolute quantification and analysis of minority sequences in the presence of similar majority sequences. dPCR allows for precise and sensitive nucleic acid measurement. In addition, real-time PCR provides precise and early diagnosis of diseases and rapid and targeted patient care hence anticipated to increase the demand in the coming years
The rise in the occurrence of diseases such as lung cancer, blood cancer, and brain tumors is fueling the application expansion of the global market. According to Globocan 2020, lung cancer is the second most common cancer in Europe, with an estimated 477,534 newly diagnosed cases. Furthermore, the benefits of digital polymerase chain reaction over traditional technologies such as real-time and quantitative polymerase chain reaction are likely to drive adoption throughout the forecast period. Moreover, rising healthcare expenditures in emerging nations and the increased need for accurate molecular disease detection are propelling the market growth.
Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the demand for digital PCR instruments and reagents. COVID-19 infections are detected using modern digital PCR instruments as a molecular diagnosis technique. According to the WHO, around 273 million cases have been diagnosed and roughly 5.3 million deaths have been documented worldwide due to COVID-19 as of December 2021. Moreover, in the pharmaceutical industry, digital PCR machines are also employed in R&D.
Furthermore, advancements in technology and an increase in the number of product launches in the global market are expected to support the market growth. For instance, in June 2021, Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc. announced the release of the PREvalence ddPCR SARS-CoV-2 waste-water quantifying kit for COVID-19 wastewater screening.
Additionally, the increase in R&D projects for advancements in technology and an increase in collaborations between firms for the development of digital polymerase chain reactions are expected to increase the usage of PCR testing. For instance, Qiagen partnered with Atila BioSystems & Actome GmbH in January 2022 to deliver non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) technologies to QIAGEN's dPCR for a growing number of applications for QIAcuity. As a result, the usage of real-time and digital PCR technologies is projected to increase during the forecast period.
