Growth Drivers:

PCR has become a crucial tool for various clinical and diagnostic applications or examinations. Relative simplicity, exquisite sensitivity, and cost-effectiveness are among the noteworthy advantages of PCR that have tremendously increased the use of PCR technology in the past years. It is a robust and reliable technology used in most molecular biology labs to amplify specific stretches of DNA for genotyping, cloning, and single nucleotide variation analysis. It also serves as the basis for most next-generation sequencing (NGS) preparation. Technological advancements are producing different types of PCR techniques. In particular, high-tech real-time PCR or qPCR systems are used to diagnose diseases, identify viruses and bacteria, and aid forensic investigations. Since its development, qPCR has grown to be an essential component of molecular biology and is widely used in research, clinical diagnostics, and testing for food safety. Its major advantages are rooted in the quantification and viral strain genotyping abilities it offers to users, enabling the estimation of reinfection based on the quantity of virus present in target tissues. It has transformed the field of nucleic acid detection and quantification, allowing researchers and medical professionals to analyze genes, mutations, and genetic variants in unprecedented detail.

CRISPR-based qPCR, automated qPCR systems, multiplex qPCR, and next-generation qPCR are examples of recent advancements in qPCR technology. With improved sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy, these systems broaden the application of qPCR in clinical diagnosis, research, and food safety testing, among other applications. Multiple target sequences can be detected and quantified in a single reaction using multiplex qPCR, saving time and reducing sample requirements. This method is useful for pathogen detection, gene expression profiling, and genetic variation analysis. In addition, next-generation qPCR helps detect and quantify nucleic acid sequences in an array of samples using cutting-edge sequencing technologies. This technique has a high degree of sensitivity and accuracy for detecting low-abundance target sequences. With careful consideration of primer design, optimization, and sample preparation, qPCR analysis can yield valuable insights into gene expression, disease diagnosis, and food safety testing. Thus, technological advancements in PCR technologies are contributing to the quantitative PCR (qPCR) market growth.
