(PharmaNewsWire.Com, April 27, 2021 ) The Research Report on "Allergy Diagnostics Market by Products (Assay Kits, Immunoassay & Elisa Analyzers, Luminometers, Services), Allergens (Food, Inhaled, Drug), Tests (In Vivo, In Vitro), End Users (Hospital, Diagnostic Laboratory) - Global Forecast" published by MarketsandMarkets™, is projected to reach USD 5.74 Billion, at a CAGR of 10.5%
The allergy diagnosis is an important introductory step for effective allergy treatment. Current allergy tests are more convenient and accurate compared to the tests that were available before. With the help of a detailed medical history, allergy tests can identify specific triggers for an individual’s allergic reactions. This process is also required in drug development and the production process of allergy treatments.
Based on product & service, the allergy diagnostics market is segmented into assay kits, instruments, and services. Assay kits form the largest and the fastest-growing segment in this market majorly due to the wide availability, large consumption, and the need for the repeat purchase of these kits in allergy testing. Although the cost of instruments is significantly higher than that of assay kits, they account for a lower share of the market owing to their long lifespan (the lifespan of a single instrument is 5 to 10 years) and the limited need for repeat installations. Also, there is a secondary market for used instruments, which are majorly procured by smaller healthcare organizations that cannot afford new instruments.
Based on the allergen, the allergy diagnostics market is segmented into inhaled allergens, food allergens, drug allergens, and other allergens. The inhaled allergens segment is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period owing to the increasing environmental pollution levels across the globe.
