Key Market Trends

Reagent Segment is Expected to Hold a Major Market Share in the GI Stool Testing Market

  • Reagents are substances that are often used for examining and analyzing. Reagents are expected to dominate the GI stool testing market with developing diagnostic technology. Chemiluminant assays are used as a diagnostic aid for the detection of gastrointestinal infections. It uses enzyme-labeled antibodies for detection, which is known to give an accurate diagnosis. According to the study published by the Journal of Investigative Medicine, in 2016, laboratory-based chemiluminescent assays were used for detection H. Pylori. The sensitivity and specificity of this assay were found out to be approximately 90.1% and 92.4%.
  • Furthermore, the rising prevalence of diarrhea is expected to raise the demand for reagents in the GI stool testing market. According to the World Health Organization, in the European region, 14 people die because of diarrhoeal disease. Hence, it is expected to influence the GI stool testing market growth positively in this segment.

North America is Expected to Hold a Significant Share in the Market and is Expected to Witness the Same in the Forecast Period

Increasing the geriatric population and higher incidence rate of gastrointestinal diseases such as colorectal cancer is expected to influence the GI stool testing market in North America positively. According to the study published in 2019, by the Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, gastrointestinal infections frequently occur in the geriatric population. Furthermore, H.pylori infection is largely diagnosed in the elderly group. According to the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 14,795 people were diagnosed with an ulcer in the United States. Ulcers are usually found in the lining of the stomach. H. Pylori is the main cause of these ulcers, and for its detection, usually, stool testing is performed. According to the United States Census Bureau, the population aged between 65 and 74 was found to be around 30.58 million.

Furthermore, according to the American Cancer Society, around 140,250 were diagnosed with colorectal cancer in the United States. For the diagnosis of colorectal cancer, a fecal occult blood test is performed. Thus, these factors are expected to fuel the GI stool testing market growth.
