Some of the factors driving the growth of the In Vitro Diagnostics Quality Control Market are increasing number of accredited clinical laboratories, rising demand for external quality assurance support, and growing adoption of third-party quality controls.
The North America is expected to account for the largest share of the global IVD quality control market in 2020, followed by Europe. The large share of the North America can be attributed to the highly developed healthcare system in the US and Canada, and the presence of a large number of leading IVD quality control vendors & national clinical laboratories & hospitals in this region.
Based on applications, the In Vitro Diagnostics Quality Control Market is segmented into clinical chemistry, immunochemistry, hematology, coagulation & hemostasis, microbiology, molecular diagnostics, and other applications (ESR, urine chemistry, immunology, cardiac assessment, and blood morphology). The molecular diagnostics segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the rising prevalence of infectious diseases, cancer, and various genetic disorders; the growing demand for blood screening; and the increasing application of molecular diagnostic technologies in pharmacogenetics and point-of-care testing.
On the basis of type, the quality control products market is segmented into serum/plasma-based controls, whole blood-based controls, urine-based controls, and other controls (controls manufactured from spinal fluid, lipoprotein extracts, and immunoproteins). The serum/plasma-based controls segment is expected to account for the largest market share in 2019. The large share of this segment is mainly attributed to the greater uptake of serum/plasma-based quality controls among laboratories and the widening application areas of these controls for various IVD tests.
