Immunoassay Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Product (Instruments, Consumables), By Technology (Radioimmunoassay, Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA), Fluoroimmunoassay, Chemiluminescence Immunoassay, Others), By Applications (Cardiology, Oncology, Autoimmune Diseases, Infectious Diseases), By End-Users (Biotechnology & Pharmaceutical Industries, Clinical Diagnostic Laboratories, Academic & Research Institutes) And Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Immunoassay is the bioanalytical technique that uses the property of affinity of antigen-antibody to distinguish and measure molecules of interest in biological samples. Immunoassays are rapid and precise tests that can be used in the laboratory to detect specific molecules. An increase in the research and development activities, upsurge in disease diagnostics, cancer markers, cardiac analysis, therapeutic drug monitoring, and clinical research practices are also expected to drive the market growth. An immunoassay can be used in hospitals and medical laboratories to run automated biochemical examinations to detect the occurrence and concentration of particular substances in the samples. The roles of immunoassays in various bioanalytical applications, such as medical diagnostics, ecological monitoring, biopharmaceutical analysis, and food testing are driving the growth of the market.

Factors such as escalation in incidences and the prevalence of infectious diseases are the major factors to drive market growth. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than 30 different diseases have appeared in the last two decades, and together these diseases pose a threat to the health of millions of people. Moreover, the WHO also estimated that 7% of hospitalized patients in developed countries and 10% of hospitalized patients in developing countries are expected to acquire at least one health-related infection. Thus, the growing volume of patients with infectious diseases is predicted to result in high demand for immunoassay instruments globally.

However, insufficient reimbursement policies are expected to obstruct the growth of the immunoassay market.
