What Are The Main Drivers Boosting The Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing Industry’s Expansion?

Globally, an increasing occurrence of infectious diseases has fostered the expansion of the antimicrobial susceptibility testing market. These diseases stem from organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Bacterial infections encompass conditions like bacterial pneumonia and tuberculosis, whereas viral infections include smallpox, AIDS, and other similar ailments. As an illustration, in March 2024, data from The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a US-based national public health agency, revealed that in 2023, out of 9,573 known TB cases where birth origin was identified, 7,259 (76%) affected non-U.S.–born persons. This represented an 18% surge compared to the 6,177 cases documented in 2022. Consequently, the escalating prevalence of infectious diseases is propelling the expansion of the antimicrobial susceptibility testing market.

How Are Emerging Market Trends Shaping The Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing Industry Landscape?

The increasing use of rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing to prevent antibiotic misuse and ensure effective treatment is emerging as a critical development within the antimicrobial susceptibility testing market. Various methods allow for the completion of antimicrobial susceptibility testing in minutes or a few hours. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a primary technique employed in rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing. PNA-FISH utilizes peptide nucleic acid probes that enable swift and specific binding, a process applied in OpGen’s QuickFish technology to identify microbes by targeting 16s RNA. An illustration of this is the antimicrobial susceptibility testing system by Genefluidics Inc., which gauges bacterial growth by quantifying 16s rRNA molecules using an electrochemical biosensor.
