Based type, the rapid/POC testing segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on type, the specimen validity testing market is segmented into laboratory testing and rapid/POC testing. In 2018, the laboratory testing segment is expected to account for the largest share of the market. However, the rapid/POC testing segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The high growth can be attributed to the instant results, detection of multiple drugs at once, and recurrent & repetitive usage of rapid/POC drug testing products.
North America to dominate the specimen validity testing market in 2018
In 2018, North America is expected to dominate the market followed by Europe. The large share of this region is attributed to factors such as growing consumption of illicit drugs, the presence of stringent laws mandating drug screening, availability of government funding (to help curb drug abuse), and the presence of key players in the region.
While the specimen validity testing market represents significant growth opportunities, market growth may be hindered due to the emergence of alternative drug screening tests. The specimen validity testing market is marked by the presence of several big and small players. Prominent players offering specimen validity testing products include Thermo Fisher Scientific (US), Sciteck, Inc. (US), American Bio Medica Corporation (ABMC), Alere [now a part of Abbott (US)], Express Diagnostics Intl, Inc. (US), and Premier Biotech, Inc. (US). While, Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings (LabCorp) (US), Quest Diagnostics (US), Alere Toxicology (Alere) (US), ACM Global Laboratories (US), Clinical Reference Laboratory (CRL) (US), SureHire (Canada), and CannAmm (Canada) are some of the leading service providers.
