ROCKVILLE, Md., A recently released research report by Fact.MR, a market research and competitive intelligence provider, states that the global lateral flow assay market is poised for significant expansion, with projections indicating a rise from US$ 9,035.8 million in 2024 to US$ 14,844.6 million by 2034, reflecting a CAGR of 5.1% over the forecast period.
The increasing prevalence of infectious diseases such as tuberculosis, malaria, HIV, and hepatitis is a primary driver of the lateral flow assay market. Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are rapid diagnostic tests widely used to detect various diseases in healthcare settings. These tests are easy to use, provide quick results, and require minimal training, making them an ideal choice for point-of-care testing.
Technological advancements have led to the development of innovative LFA products, including multiplex assay tests, which can detect multiple analytics simultaneously, thereby increasing efficiency and reducing costs. The rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases and the need for early diagnosis contribute to the growth of the lateral flow assay industry.
The growing geriatric population and the increasing demand for home-based diagnostic tests are expected to fuel market growth. LFAs are user-friendly, cost-effective, and provide rapid results, making them suitable for home use and in remote or resource-limited settings.
