Rapid Hepatitis Testing Market Overview
According to the latest research by Future Market Insights, Rapid Hepatitis Testing Market is expected to witness robust growth with 4-5% CAGR during the forecast period from 2021 to 2031. The rising prevalence of hepatitis caused due to liver infection and an increasing focus on molecular diagnostics is likely fuelling the global rapid hepatitis testing market growth. Therefore, growth at a significantly high CAGR will be expected soon.
What is Driving the Demand for Rapid Hepatitis Testing?
The availability of advanced diagnostic procedures for hepatitis tastings expects to boost the market growth in the coming years. The paradigm shift of the researchers and manufacturers to molecular diagnostics from conventional technologies has amplified the capability of procedures that has minimized the testing time.
For example, molecular diagnostics detect the presence of a virus that is involved by performing genetic tests to confirm the exact strain of the causative virus. Furthermore, the rising prevalence of hepatitis among the growing population is also expected to fuel market growth.
According to World Health Organization (WHO), around 325 million people are living with hepatitis B and/or C, and for most globally. To reduce the current global burden of hepatitis, the key players have increased focus on research area efforts to develop an effective rapid test that enables virus identification and eases linkage to various healthcare setting.
For instance, in February 2019, Abbott has received CE Mark for the Determine™ HBsAg 2 test, the most sensitive rapid diagnostic test used for hepatitis B surface antigen detection.
