Gram Staining Systems Market Analysis

The Gram Staining Systems Market is expected to register a CAGR of 6.20% during the forecast period(2024-2029).

  • The COVID-19 pandemic had a substantial influence on the gram staining systems market due to the global lockdown as well as the partial or complete shutdown of laboratory facilities due to the massive influx of COVID-19 patients.
  • For instance, as per the January 2021 update by the American Society for Microbiology, 47.5% of labs had a shortage of supplies for the detection of routine bacteria (including the bacteria causing strep throat, pneumonia, bronchitis, and urinary tract infections). Hence, COVID-19 had a significant impact on the gram staining systems market. However, with the resumption of laboratory services and decreasing cases of COVID-19, the studied market is expected to recover from the reduction of COVID-19 over the forecast period.
  • The major factor attributing to the growth of the market is the increasing need for advancements in diagnostics as there is an increasing prevalence of infectious diseases. For instance, according to the data published by the World Health Organization (WHO) in the Global Tuberculosis Report 2022, most TB cases in 2021 were in the WHO regions of South-East Asia (45%), Africa (23%), and Western Pacific (18%), with smaller shares in the Eastern Mediterranean (8.1%), the Americas (2.9%) and Europe (2.2%). Hence, the rise in the prevalence of TB cases is expected to increase the demand for gram staining for the detection of TB infections and thereby fuelling the market growth.
  • Additionally, technological advancements and a rise in research funding for clinical research are expected to drive market growth. There is an increase in the adoption of automated staining systems in laboratories which gained a lot of attention due to their efficiency and accuracy. For instance, as per the article published in December 2022 in Elsevier, the research indicated promising results regarding the potential for an automated algorithm for the classification of microscopic gram stain images. Furthermore, a rise in clinical studies with the utilization of various gram-staining techniques is expected to drive market growth.
  • For instance, in April 2023, Sohag University sponsored a clinical trial to evaluate phenotypic and genotypic variations of Enterococcus Spp, which are gram-positive facultative anaerobic cocci arranged in short and medium chains. During the procedure, various staining techniques are conducted to identify the bacteria. Thus, due to such clinical studies, the demand for gram-staining reagents and systems are likely to increase, thereby bolstering the market growth.
  • Thus, due to the rise in infectious diseases, technological advancements, and a rise in research funding for clinical research, the studied market is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period. However, lack of awareness of the staining systems and many using the conventional method for staining constraints the market growth.
