The detection of genetic variations is known as molecular diagnostics, and its goals are to make diagnosis, prognosis, subclassification, and therapeutic response tracking easier. It is a set of methods for applying molecular biology to medical diagnostics that examine biological markers in the genome and proteome as well as how cells express their genes as proteins. By detecting bacterial genes (using PCR-based techniques) and measuring expressed proteins specific to bacterial infections (using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay [ELISA] and proteomics), molecular diagnostics are widely used, potent, and sensitive methods for identifying biologic markers in a genome and proteome.
Market
Drivers: Government initiatives, schemes, and funding propel research and development, fostering growth in the molecular diagnostics market. These support mechanisms incentivize companies and research institutions, driving increased investment in R&D and advanced diagnostic technologies. The aging global population, with its heightened vulnerability to chronic diseases, significantly fuels market growth. Molecular diagnostics, renowned for their accuracy and early disease detection capabilities, are increasingly critical for addressing the healthcare needs of the elderly.
Challenges: The high cost of molecular diagnostic technologies is a significant barrier to their market expansion. Due to their high cost, these instruments are typically only available to tiny labs, clinics, and practitioners with tighter budgets. The procurement of these devices is limited by the requirement for a significant capital expenditure, especially for smaller organizations. The broad use of molecular diagnostic technology in many healthcare settings is hampered by this financial hurdle.
