Market Trends of Nucleic Acid Labeling Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Nucleic Acid Labeling Market according to our research experts:
Biotin Based Segment is Expected to Show Better Growth Over the Forecast Period
Based on label type, the market is segmented into biotin-based, fluorescent, radioactive and other label types. Non-radioactively labeled probes, such as biotin-based probes have several advantages over radioactive probes, such as increased stability and their non-hazardous nature. The biotin-based labels use non-toxic materials and have faster detection rates than radioactive probes. Furthermore, owing to their long half-life and high stability, biotin-based probes can be prepared in bulk and stored at -20°C for repeated uses. Furthermore, there have been several advancements in biotin-based techniques, such as the addition of long tails of biotinylated nucleotides through enzymatic methods to counter the technique’s limitations. Pertaining to these advancements, the biotin-based label segment is expected to show better growth during the forecast period.
North America is Expected to Dominate the Nucleic Acid Labeling Market
The nucleic acid labeling market dominates the North America region due to the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, such as cancer, aging population, growing demand for targeted and personalized medicine, and favorable government initiatives. In recent years, several government initiatives have been launched, which is supplementing the growth of the nucleic acid labeling market in the United States. For instance, in 2015, the Precision Medicine Initiative was introduced to revolutionize the treatment of chronic diseases, which has accelerated the growth of the nucleic acid labeling and its acceptance as well as adoption in the region.
