The veterinary chemistry analyzer market is expected to witness significant growth in the coming years, with a rising demand for animal-derived food products, growing number of livestock and companion animals, rising pet ownership in developed countries, growing demand for pet insurance, rising animal health expenditure, increasing incidence of zoonotic diseases, and growth in the number of veterinary practitioners and their income levels in developed economies.
Moreover, emerging markets such as China, India and Latin America are expected to provide significant growth opportunities for players in the veterinary chemistry analyzers market. However, increasing pet care costs are expected to restrain the growth of this market to a certain extent.
On the basis of product, this market is segmented into instruments and consumables (panels, kits, test strips, and reagents). In 2016, the consumables segment accounted for the largest share of the global veterinary chemistry analyzer market. It is expected to register the highest growth during the forecast period. The high growth of this segment is mainly attributed to the increased adoption of the pre-loaded multiple reagent panels and pre-loaded single slide reagent panels by the end users.
On the basis of application, the market is categorized into blood chemistry analysis, urinalysis, glucose monitoring, and blood gas-electrolyte analysis. The blood chemistry analysis segment accounted for the largest share in 2016, while the glucose-monitoring segment is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period. The veterinary chemistry analyzer market is further segmented, on the basis of animal type, into companion animals and livestock. In 2016, the companion animal segment accounted for the largest share of the market. This segment is also expected to register the highest growth during the forecast period.
Geographically, the veterinary chemistry analyzer market is categorized into developed and emerging markets. The emerging markets (including China, India, and Latin America) segment is expected to witness the highest growth rate during the forecast period.
