COVID-19 Impact on the Global Microbial Identification Market

Microbial Identification Market

PUNE, India, 2021-Apr-21 — /EPR Network/ —

The global microbial identification market size is estimated to be USD 3.2 billion in 2020 and projected to reach USD 5.7 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 12.2%.

Growth in microbial identification market is largely driven by the rising incidence of infectious diseases and the increasing frequency of pandemics, technological advancements, increasing food safety concerns, and increasing government initiatives and funding to detect and control antimicrobial-resistant species.

COVID-19 Impact on the Global Microbial Identification Market

According to a study conducted by ClinicalTrials.gov, to prevent screening shortages, an innovative PCR-free alternative strategy were developed based on the detection of specific protein signatures in human saliva by MALDI-TOF MS profiling. MALDI-TOF MS profiling is a method used in routine diagnostics by microbiology laboratories for the identification of microorganisms. MALDI-TOF MS profiling has been successfully used to classify individuals according to their infectious status based on the analysis of their saliva. It is also used as a tool for the identification of respiratory viruses from cell culture supernatants. MALDI-TOF MS is one of the major technologies used in microbial identification.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on the US, China, India, as well as many major European countries. Since most of these countries are major manufacturers of the instruments and consumables used for microbial identification, the pandemic and nationwide lockdowns have caused a decline in the sales of these products. This has negatively affected the microbial identification market. However, the market is expected to recover in the next one to two years.
