Europe Pathogen Detection Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Pathogen detection plays a major role in disease diagnosis. When patients show symptoms indicating a pathogenic infection, samples of blood, urine, saliva, and stool are collected and subjected to pathogenic detection assays for diagnostic purposes. The most types of common pathogen detection tools are culture and colony counting methods, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and immunology-based methods which involves bacterial counting, DNA analysis, and antigen-antibody interactions.

Europe Pathogen Detection Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Increasing Technological Advancements

With the growing advances with which primary genome sequences can be acquired and analyzed, other detection or screening formats may become more extensively available, and additional regions of microbial (and viral) genomes may be targeted more often. For instance, high-density oligonucleotide or amplified DNA products can be widely used to screen complex pools of microbial nucleic acid for specific agents. This technological platform eradicates the growing need to clone and sequence huge numbers of variant microbial molecules, which is particularly important in analyzing clinical specimens. Thus, this factor increases the growth of the market.

• Rising Stringent Regulations and Compliance

Europe is becoming strict with the food regulations and compliance for manufacturers, which is helping in exposing the deteriorate food before consumers. The Administrative Assistance and Cooperation System – Food Fraud (AAC-FF), introduced by the European Union in 2015, offers an IT tool which provides a platform for members belonging to the EU Food Fraud Network to exchange information on non-compliances and potential intentional violations of the EU Agri-food chain legislation. The system showed the requests created by member countries on the platform, which grew each year, resulting to 292 in 2019. Thus, this increase the growth of the market.

Opportunities

• Growing Prevalence of Food-borne Diseases

The increasing incidences of food-borne diseases is taking a big toll on human health. Therefore, the detection of pathogens in food is the only solution used for the prevention of microbial infections. The pathogens cause numerous life-threatening diseases in food; some of them can be cured; though, some pose a major threat to human life. For instance, as per a report by the Centre for Disease control and prevention, Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli infections cause the illness to nearly 73000 population and the death of approximately 60 people annually in the Europe. Children, females, and the elderly are at higher risk of getting infected with food-borne diseases that affect the human body's intestinal tract and cause abdominal cramps, diarrhea, and fever. Thus, this factor boost the growth of the market.

Restraints/Challenges

• Increasing Cost of Identification Tests

The techniques currently used to detect microbial pathogens depend on well-established clinical microbiology monitoring approaches, which have numerous drawbacks. Standard culture and susceptibility tests can help detect pathogens, but they are time-consuming, very expensive, and require labile natural products. Not all developing countries can afford and adopt these techniques for quicker detection of pathogens. These all factors hamper the growth of the market.
