DNA/RNA Extraction Kit Market Analysis
The DNA/RNA extraction kit market is expected to register a CAGR of 7.26% during the forecast period of 2021-2026.
The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the DNA/RNA extraction kit market for the short time being due to restrictions on different business and research activities. Additionally, the diagnostics tests of other diseases and medical disorders in the hospitals and other clinical diagnostics establishments were affected due to a decrease in the turnout of the patients for tests because of COVID-19. However, the high infection rate of COVID-19 and research activities by key companies in the area of sequencing to expand their knowledge about the virus and its origin, along with molecular diagnostics of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, led to the development and launch of many DNA and RNA based COVID-19 kits, which proved to be very crucial and were in huge demand later. For instance, in April 2020, PHASE Scientific announced the commercial launch of the PHASIFY VIRAL RNA extraction kit for the detection of the COVID-19 virus, globally.
The major driving factor behind the growth of the DNA/RNA extraction kit market is the increasing investments in R&D activities in different fields, including molecular diagnostics for different chronic and infectious diseases. For example, according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, in 2018, the United States spent USD 552 billion on R&D activities, followed by China with USD 463 billion. The technological advancements, the launch of new products by the key market players, and rising cases of cancer, worldwide, may also complement the growth of the market studied. For instance, in June 2020, Omega Bio-tek Inc. announced the launch of an advanced viral RNA extraction kit for the COVID-19 testing, called Mag-Bind Viral RNA Xpress kit, for the efficient extraction of the Viral RNA from nasopharyngeal (NP) swab samples.
Other factors, such as increased demand in the automation of DNA/RNA extraction technology, new user-friendly and easy extraction kits, use of DNA/RNA in the profiling of new diseases causing microorganisms, are expected to boost the growth of the DNA/RNA extraction kit market during the forecast period. Thus, the low awareness and availability of the kits and less market penetration in the underdeveloped and developing regions, worldwide, are the major restraining factors for the growth of the DNA/RNA extraction kit market.
