[Research Report] The food safety testing kits market size is expected to grow from US$ 22,247.0 million in 2022 to US$ 34,142.5 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.4% from 2022 to 2028.

Market Insights and Analyst View:

Food safety testing is a scientific analysis of a food product and its contents to find information about various characteristics such as physiochemical properties, composition, and structure. The information is used to determine the safety of the product for consumption. The rising prevalence of foodborne illnesses demands food safety testing for all food and beverage products to prevent health hazards, which boosts the growth of the food safety testing kits market.

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

All antibiotics and other antimicrobials are used to treat infections caused by bacteria. The misuse and overuse of antimicrobials in human and veterinary medicine has been linked to the emergence of resistant bacteria rendering the treatment of humans and animals ineffective. Antimicrobial medicine is identified as one of the biggest threats to modern medicine. Therefore, it has become extremely important to detect the contaminants beforehand and prevent them from entering the food chain. Thus, the importance of food safety testing kits has been increasing globally in terms of volume. Moreover, the decline in food service demand for oilseeds and grains harmed sales during 2020, the reopening of global foodservice platforms and higher selling prices is expected to boost the food safety testing kits market growth over the forecast period.

The dairy sector is one of the most vulnerable sectors to foodborne illnesses as dairy products harbor a variety of microorganisms. As pasteurization may not destroy all pathogens in milk, testing of milk becomes essential to ensure safety. Milk is also one of the products that is consumed daily in large quantities all over the world. Thus, the high milk consumption leads to a higher volume of food safety testing kits driving the market further. However, the basic challenge the food safety testing market faces is the inclusion of multiple ingredients present in a food item, which makes tracing contaminated ingredients difficult. This factor can hamper the food safety testing kits market growth.
