Microbial Testing Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

Based on our research output, there has been a neutral impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The high prevalence of food-borne diseases is notably driving the microbial testing market growth, although factors such as lack of skilled professionals may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the microbial testing industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Microbial Testing Market Driver

The high prevalence of food-borne diseases is one of the key factors driving the growth of the global microbial testing market.  Food is made of plants and animals, which usually contain many types of microorganisms. Food may be contaminated during production and consumption. For instance, raw meat may get contaminated during slaughter, and fruit and vegetables may get contaminated while growing or during processing. Hence, microbial contamination of food leads to spoilage of foods, and consumption of contaminated food results in food-borne diseases. However, the WHO collaborated with the UN Food and Agriculture Organization and created the Codex Alimentarius, a non-governmental interagency organization, which created food guidelines, standards, and practices, such as safety, quality, and fairness of the international food trade. These two agencies also developed the International Food Safety Authorities Network (INFOSAN) to rapidly share information during food safety emergencies. Such factors result in the rise in the use of microbial testing for analyses and diagnostics, thereby benefitting the market.

Key Microbial Testing Market Trend

The emergence of new infectious diseases will fuel the global microbial testing market growth. Infectious diseases result in more deaths worldwide than any other single cause. For instance, in 2019,10, million people fell ill due to tuberculosis (TB) worldwide, out of which 5.6 million were men, 3.2 million women, and 1.2 million children. Over 94.82% of tuberculosis-associated deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries. Infectious diseases are caused by pathogenic microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, parasites, or fungi. Diseases can be transmitted through touch, contaminated food, water, and air. Diseases can also spread through animal and insect bites and sexual contact. With the increase in infectious diseases, there has been an increase in the products used for diagnosing them. Almost all pathogenic organisms can be detected by microbial testing. Researchers aim to have specific microbial testing procedures to detect various pathogens. In recent years, microbial testing for the detection of bacterial infections caused by Escherichia coli (gastroenteritis), Salmonella typhi (food poisoning), and Campylobacter hyointestinalis (gastritis) has increased. Thus, an increase in infectious diseases will increase the demand for its diagnosis with the help of microbial testing, thus increasing the revenue of the market during the forecast period.

Key Microbial Testing Market Challenge

The lack of skilled professionals is a major challenge for the global microbial testing market growth. The use of microbial testing is increasing at a rapid rate. Carrying out efficient testing protocols requires efficient handling of equipment and tests that are compliant with regulatory bodies and GMP. However, with the global increase in disease burden and the increasing pressure on laboratories to produce test results in short TAT, laboratories tend to overlook certain rules and protocols. When low-quality products are identified by regulatory bodies, the company incurs losses, and it practically becomes impossible to relaunch the product or revise testing procedures. In August 2017, in India, the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization declared 37 drugs as unsafe for patient use by identifying them as adulterated, spurious, misbranded, or not of standard quality. Moreover, lack of recognition of the profession and lack of appropriate knowledge about the importance of laboratory professionals are some other reasons contributing to the dwindling number of professionals in laboratories, and this is expected to continue during the forecast period thereby, offsetting the growth of the market.
