Rise in geriatric population, rising prevalence of infectious diseases, growth in demand for home-based lateral flow assay test kits, rise in disposable income in developing countries, and surge in demand for point-of-care testing are the main drivers of the global lateral testing market. Lateral Testing Market accounted for US$ 5.4 billion in 2020 and is estimated to be US$ 7.9 billion by 2029 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 4.3%.

The report "Lateral Testing Market, By Product Type (Kits and Reagents, Lateral Flow Assay Readers, Digital/Mobile Readers, and Benchtop Readers), By Technique (Sandwich Assay, Competitive Assay, and Multiplex Detection Assay), By Application (Clinical Testing, Veterinary Diagnostics, Food safety & Environment Testing, and Drug Development & Quality Testing), By End-user (Hospitals & Clinics, Diagnostic Laboratories, Home Care, Pharmaceutical & Biotechnology Companies, and Others), and By Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa) - Trends, Analysis and Forecast till 2029”.

Key Highlights:

• In January 2019, Anteo Diagnostics collaborated with Sona Nanotech Inc. to improve the performance of lateral flow tests and expand the speed of lateral flow test development. Hence, growth in such strategic collaborations to enhance the development of lateral flow kits is expected to boost demand for lateral flow assays over the forecast period.
• In March 2019, Alere (now Abbott) declared the launch of its rapid influenza diagnostic test called BinaxNOW Influenza A & B Card 2. This test has been approved CLIA waiver to be used with Abbott’s diagnostic reader DIGIVAL. The diagnostic reader interprets and reads lateral flow tests in a few seconds and delivers objective and automated results in any healthcare setting.
• In May 2019, the FDA permitted Zimmer Biomet to market Synovasure, a lateral flow test kit. This kit helps in the detection of periprosthetic joint infection in the synovial fluid of patients that have been evaluated for a knee revision surgery.

Analyst View:

Rise in the prevalence of infectious diseases

Growth in the prevalence of infectious diseases is expected to drive the target market growth in the coming years. As per WHO, in 2017, 219 million malaria cases were projected in around 87 countries. Further, WHO also reports that over 435,000 deaths were noted due to malaria in 2017. Hence, growing incidence of infectious diseases is estimated to result in demand for lateral flow assays.

Growth in government initiatives

Growth in the initiatives taken by governments to curb malaria are projected to propel the target market growth. For instance, in 2019, on World Malaria Day, WHO partnered with RBM, African Union Commission, and other partner organizations to create and spread awareness on malarial prevention and diagnosis. Increase in government investments is another factor anticipated to drive the target market growth.
