Product segmentation and analysis of the oxidative stress detection market

• Reagents and consumables
• Instruments
• Services

During 2015, the global oxidative stress detection market was led by the reagents and consumables segment, accounting for more than 43% share of the overall revenue of the market. The growth of this product segment is attributed to the high sales and extremely short replacement or replenishment cycles of reagents. Most consumables and reagents used for detecting oxidative stress in cells have a life that lasts for one process as it is absorbed into the body, resulting in the need for new reagents and markers for every process, regardless of the technology or method employed.
