The instruments segment was valued at 919.27 million in 2017 and continued to grow until 2021. The rising number of cases of waterborne disease is boosting the demand. An instrument capable of detecting different biomarkers for different types of infectious diseases enables rapid analysis and high accuracy. Water testing can increase the efficiency of industrial processes to produce better products at lower costs and is essential for maintaining a safe public drinking water supply and healthy ecosystems.
Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Increasing cases of waterborne diseases are the key driver shaping the microbiological water quality test market growth. Increasing waste from urban sewers is one of the most serious quality problems in the world, which increases the demand. The wastewater contains human feces, and water contaminated with this wastewater may contain pathogens that are dangerous to human health. This contaminated water should be periodically verified by microbiological analysis. This has increased the market demand. Microbiological analysis helps analyze the presence of harmful organisms, elements, and compounds. Children are the most vulnerable segment of the waterborne problem. Several children in developing and underdeveloped countries die due to water-based microbiological organisms. Many of these diseases can be prevented through one simple measure, by testing the water and ensuring its quality and suitability for human consumption.
The healthcare cost is increasing, which is a major concern for people around the world which makes the testing process important. The rising number of health diseases caused due to contamination is a significant factor surging the demand globally.
Rising concern for clean water is the key trend in the global market. People worldwide are seeking clean water due to the rising number of water born diseases. Clean water is mandatory for various businesses, including cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food and beverage. Smart water technology is gaining importance as water resources shrink around the world and sanitation costs are increasing. The global water crisis has increased the importance of water conservation and the collection and treatment of wastewater to replenish water resources. This, in turn, has led to the replacement of older technologies with newer devices and sensors that offer wider connectivity and real-time water quality monitoring. The global crisis has increased the importance of water conservation and the collection and treatment of wastewater to replenish resources. This, in turn, has led to the replacement of older technologies with newer devices and sensors that offer wider connectivity and real-time water quality monitoring. The new devices and sensors also help utilities to manage and detect contamination, thus avoiding quality issues even before customers get affected.
Governments of various countries are taking the initiative to provide clean to the citizens. According to WHO, approximately 2 billion population in the world are using water that is contaminated with fecal material. There has been technological advancement in the testing process of water, which makes the process easy and faster. Many vendors in the market invest in research and development to advance the process of water testing.
Lack of funds may hamper the growth of the market. The cost of monitoring laboratory equipment is high. In most countries around the world, this is funded by government agencies. Thus, the lack of funds from the government may have a negative impact on market growth. The growing demand for a real-time network requires optical and connected water quality sensors, which are costly compared to traditional electrochemical sensors. The deployment of such sensors by national water supply companies requires government assistance.
One of the major challenges in adopting this is the high dependence on government agencies for the sale of equipment. The average cost of a quality sensor ranges from USD600 to USD1,500. Due to the high price of the device, vendors depend on the government for funds, which is the major factor hindering growth.

The market research report forecasts market growth by revenue at global, regional & country levels and provides an analysis of the market growth and trends opportunities from 2017 to 2027.
The market is driven by increasing concerns about quality and safety in various industrialization, including the pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, and food industries. With the potential presence of bacteria, chemicals, and pathogens like Typhoid, Dysentery, and Cholera, water quality analysis is crucial. End-user industries such as the oil & gas, semiconductor, chemical, and food & beverage industries, as well as private water supplies and government institutions, rely on accurate testing for health safety activities.
However, challenges such as a lack of basic supporting infrastructure needs, including Laboratory design and furnishings , testing labs and specialized equipment, hinder testing and certification practices in developing countries. Compliance with regulations like the FDA regulations and the Food Safety Modernization Act is essential, driving the need for quality assurance and quality control programs. Innovative technologies and scientific instruments play a vital role in ensuring safe drinking water standards and preventing waterborne disease outbreaks like Cryptosporidiosis and Giardiasis. Testing and certification practices in manufacturing companies often face challenges due to a lack of specialized equipment, adherence to standard operating procedures (SOPs), availability of electricity supply, proper calibration dates, and the use of chemical reagents. Compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) is crucial in the food & beverage industry, especially concerning Juice HACCP regulations to prevent protozoan contamination.
