KEY MARKET INSIGHTS

Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is a procedure performed to identify an appropriate antimicrobial regimen that is specifically effective for individual patients. The specimens used for culture and sensitivity tests are blood, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, sputum, wound, stool, and other body fluids and discharge. There are various types of infections such as skin infections, respiratory tract infections, sexually transmitted diseases, and urinary tract infections, which demand appropriate regimens for treatment.



  • For instance, according to data published by WHO, in November 2022, pneumonia accounted for 14% of death of children under five years of age. Around 740,180 deaths of children occurred in 2019 were reported due to pneumonia, and the main cause of developing pneumonia are bacteria, viruses, and fungi.

  • For instance, according to data published by WHO in April 2023, tuberculosis (T.B). is the 13th leading cause of death worldwide. In 2021, estimated 10.6 million people were diagnosed with T.B. worldwide. A total of 6 million men, 3.4 million women, and 1.2 million children were affected by T.B.


The phenomenon known as antimicrobial resistance (AMR) occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites change or no longer respond to medicines making infections more difficult to treat and increasing the risk of death due to disease spread. AMR is a global health threat due to the increasing emergence and spread of drug-resistant pathogens that have acquired new resistance mechanisms, leading to antimicrobial resistance. It continues to threaten the human body's ability to treat common infections.


  • For instance, according to data published by WHO in November 2021, AMR is one of the world's top 10 public health threats to humanity. Modern medicine's success in treating infection, including during major surgery and cancer chemotherapy, would have been at risk without effective antimicrobials.


The use of antimicrobial susceptibility testing is increasing due to an increase in certain conditions such as pneumonia, sepsis, meningitis, and T.B. The increasing resistance to antimicrobial treatment is the one of key drivers supporting the growth of the antimicrobial susceptibility testing market.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing Market


The antimicrobial susceptibility testing market witnessed a slightly positive impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 due to increased antimicrobial resistance to antibiotic therapy.


  • For instance, as per the article published in September 2021 by Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials under the title "Antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of respiratory Gram-negative bacterial isolates from COVID-19 patients in Switzerland." The bacterial superinfections were developed in ventilated COVID-19 patients highly impacted by antimicrobial resistance. In some cases, continuous modification of antibiotic therapy was needed.


The demand for antimicrobial susceptibility testing increased due to increased antimicrobial resistance associated with COVID-19 cases, which resulted in the growth of the Antimicrobial susceptibility testing Market.

Key Insights

Analysis by Application


Based on application, the drug discovery & development segment accounted for a significant proportion of the Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing market in 2022. The growth is mainly attributed to the constant innovation and the development of new therapeutic products to treat highly prevalent infectious diseases.


  • For instance, in March 2023, as per the article published by Elsevier B.V. on behalf of King Saud University, most of the genotypic methods are being used for drug discovery, resistance monitoring, or research, and at present, non-phenotypic methods like nucleic acid or nanotechnology-based ASTs are mostly intended for the drug discovery or research.


Regional Analysis


To gain extensive insights into the market, Request for Customization


North America is anticipated to gain a significant market share in the antimicrobial susceptibility testing market during the forecast period. The key factors driving the market's growth are the rising prevalence of microbial infections, the availability of technologically advanced diagnostic tests, and a well-established regional healthcare infrastructure. The increasing incidence of multidrug-resistant organisms and growing demand for precision medicine are some other factors boosting market growth.


  • For instance, according to the report published by CDC in 2022, each year, 2.8 million antimicrobial-resistant infections occur in the United States, and as a result, more than 35,000 people die.


 The increased incidence of multidrug-resistant organisms and growing demand for precision medicine are the primary factors boosting market growth.
