global esoteric testing market dynamics

Market Dynamics

Growing Innovations in the Diagnostic Industry

Globally, there is a considerable increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases, which in turn spurred growth and innovations in the diagnostic industry. The market has witnessed a significant demand for esoteric testing coupled with growth in research activities contributing to the market growth. For instance, in June 2023, SRL Diagnostics launched a state-of-the-art reference laboratory in Chennai, India. The laboratory is expanded over 20,000 sq ft along with the capability to conduct more than 1 lakh tests monthly, including routine tests, esoteric tests, and genetic tests.

Additionally, technological advancements, such as the development of more fast and accurate esoteric testing methods & instruments further drive the market growth. For instance, in July 2023, Novatein Biosciences launched its Human Anti-Carbamylated Protein Antibody (Anti-CarP) ELISA Kit. This kit is designed to facilitate innovative research in protein carbonylation and its implications in various pathophysiological conditions.

Increasing Prevalence of Cancer & Infectious Diseases

The steadily rising prevalence of cancer and various infectious diseases such as HIV, strep throat, and others is another factor supporting the esoteric testing demand globally. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), globally, around 39.0 million people were living with HIV at the end of 2022. Furthermore, since the epidemic, over 85.6 million people have been infected with HIV. Apart from this, as per the same source, cancer was estimated to be the leading cause of fatalities globally, accounting for 10 million fatalities in 2022. In addition, about 2.3 million and 2.2 million people worldwide were diagnosed with breast cancer and lung cancer, respectively.

Our in-depth analysis of the global esoteric testing market includes the following segments by test type, technology, and end-user:

  • Based on test type, the market is sub-segmented into infectious disease testing, oncology testing, endocrinology testing, genetic testing, toxicology testing, neurology testing, and other testing (immunology testing).
  • Based on technology, the market is sub-segmented into enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, chemiluminescence immunoassay, mass spectrometry, DNA sequencing, flow cytometry, and others (radioimmunoassays, real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
  • Based on end-user, the market is bifurcated into hospital-based laboratories and independent and reference laboratories

Infectious Diseases is Projected to Emerge as the Largest Segment

The growth is supported owing to the surging prevalence of infectious diseases around the globe along with the growing development of advanced and innovative esoteric testing kits for diagnosing respiratory diseases. For instance, in March 2024, Launch Diagnostics introduced the VirClia Lotus Chemiluminescence instrument for infectious diseases serology. It is a mono-test solution that allows the laboratory to run esoteric and low-volume infectious serology tests. Moreover, the US Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) has also approved several home kit solutions for almost every age group with symptoms of respiratory viral infection consistent with COVID-19. Some of the approved kits include LabCorp COVID-19+Flu+RSV, LabCorp Seasonal Respiratory Virus RT-PCR DTC, LabCorp COVID-19+Flu+RSV, and others.

Regional Outlook

The global esoteric testing market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). 

Rapidly Growing Healthcare Infrastructure Among the Asia-Pacific Economies

As per the report published by NITI Aayog Investment Grid, there are nearly 600 investment opportunities worth $32 billion in the country’s hospital and medical infrastructure sub-sector. Additionally, in the field of diagnostic testing, the country has immense potential to bolster domestic manufacturing of advanced and innovative test kits.

Recently, in November 2023, Esoteric II was incorporated in Singapore as an investment holding company to be the holding company for India Grid Trust. It is an affiliate of KKRPost the preferential allotment in September 2023, Esoteric’s stake stands at 22.7%. 

Global Esoteric Testing Market Growth by Region 2024-2031

global esoteric testing market growth, by region

North America Holds Major Market Share

Among all the regions, the North American region is expected to hold a major share of the global market. The region holds a huge population base of geriatric and chronic disease people. According to the Oxford Academic, Canada is an older country with a percentage of the population aged 65 years and above (17.7%) than in the US. Additionally, it has the highest percentage of its population aged above 85 years (2.7%). The size of this age group is an important indicator of the overall need for healthcare in the older population.
