Market Definition
Mycotoxin testing detects the presence of harmful mycotoxin metabolites caused by mold or fungi in the body or home using a urine or environmental test. Mycotoxin testing ensures that the products are not carcinogenic and that they comply with international regulatory standards. Mycotoxins are toxic chemical compounds produced by fungi that can cause a number of fatal diseases.
Middle East and Africa Mycotoxin Testing Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Rising risk of mycotoxin contamination
The market is expected to grow during the forecast period due to the increased risk of mycotoxin contamination in livestock feed and rising incidences of mycotoxin occurrences in crops.
- Stringent regulations laid by the government on the implementation of testing
Various governments and regulatory bodies have made testing of animal feed and food ingredients mandatory throughout the world. Animal feed is not approved for marketing unless its safety and efficacy have been proven. Such precautions to avoid contamination, chemicals, and toxic presence have significantly impacted the growth of the Middle East and Africa mycotoxin testing market. Many countries have enacted specific regulations for mycotoxins in food and animal feed to protect human and animal health.
Opportunity
- Increasing food trade across the borders of emerging markets
Increasing food trade across the borders of emerging markets expands the market's opportunity for growth. The rising number of food-borne illnesses and poor sanitation and processing conditions in factories in a few countries necessitate the need for mycotoxin testing of food. The implementation of regulations in emerging economies that have entered the food trade and the authorization of authorities to prohibit the import and supply of contaminated food and enforce food recalls are expected to increase demand for testing services in these regions. Furthermore, increasing cases of mycotoxicosis outbreaks in Asia and Africa are expected to create significant growth opportunities for mycotoxin testing in these regions.
Restraints/Challenges
- Mycotoxin testing markets lack organization
Several developing regions in mycotoxin testing markets lack organization, sophistication, and technology. Food control laboratory infrastructure is likely to be scarce in many developing countries due to limited resources, limited technology, and poor management. There are numerous issues concerning food safety, such as a lack of institutional coordination, outdated technology, a lack of expertise for executing regulation at the lowest levels, and a lack of updated standards, all of which have hampered the market. Laboratories are under-equipped and lack appropriate by untrained analytical personnel.
