Published Date : 24 May 2024
The global digital PCR market size surpassed USD 6.50 billion in 2023 and is expected to rise around USD 14.28 billion by 2032, poised to grow at a CAGR of 9.14% from 2023 to 2032. The increasing prevalence and incidence of genetic disorders and target infectious diseases are attributed to the drive of the digital PCR market.
The digital PCR amplifies and quantifies nucleic acids, including RNA, cDNA, or DNA, by partitioning samples into small reactions and analyzing positive ones. Digital PCR is specifically useful for applications demanding the detection of rare events, accuracy, and high sensitivity, including copy number variations or analysis of rare mutations.
The increasing recent product approvals and technological advancements, increasing use of personalized medicine, and expansion of molecular biology applications in genomics are expected to drive the market's growth. In addition, the growing integration of technology, increasing acquisitions and introduction of products by laboratories, and rising demand for liquid biopsies are further anticipated to accelerate the growth of the digital PCR market during the forecast period.
Increasing precision in nucleic acid qualification and rising demand for liquid biopsies fuels market growth
Digital PCR provides a multiple level of accuracy in the quantity of nucleic acids. Digital PCR offers more absolute quantification than traditional quantitative PCR. Accuracy is gained by separating the sample into thousands of individual reactions. Digital PCR also effectively measures the number of target molecules present. A high level of precision is necessary for several applications, including tracking viral load changes in infectious diseases, ensuring the reliability of diagnostics tests, and detecting rare genetic mutations in cancer.
In addition, liquid biopsies are included in detecting blood or different bodily fluids for the detection of cancer-associated biomarkers and are becoming significantly essential in treatment monitoring and detection of cancer at an early stage. Digital PCR’s flexibility helps in the analysis of very small amounts of mutated RNA or DNA, making it a vital technology in liquid biopsy. Professionals can use digital PCR to analyze genetic mutations related to several cancers, offering important information for customized treatment strategies. These are the major driving factors anticipated to enhance the growth of the digital PCR market.
However, some technical limitations of digital PCR may restrain market growth. A typical process of digital PCR is associated with various technical limitations, including failure to analyze target molecules due to the low quality of nucleotide template, hurdles in target detection due to the occurrence of reaction inhibitors, the need for validation and optimization of assay procedures and signal measurement during the aggressive phase of the PCR reaction. Moreover, digital PCR has various process limitations that directly impact its adoption in genomic research, such as the use of carcinogenic chemicals and the inability to assess DNA quality. These are the challenging factors that may restrain the growth of the digital PCR market.
