The global automated microbiology market size is projected to register a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed growing prevalence of pathogen influenced diseases.
Automated microbiology is a technique used in the field of microbiology that deals with the methods for arriving more accurate and quicker delivery of disease diagnostic results. The introduction of automation in microbiology is widely considered to be a major step in the medical research projects as it enhances the productivity, efficiency, and reliability in molecular testing. It offers a primary design that helps in the identification pathogens and early detection of several infectious agents including viroid, fungus, parasite, prion, bacterium, and virus. These agents are responsible for several severe diseases such as Ebola, chickenpox, rubella, mumps, influenza, smallpox, and measles. The outbreak of new diseases has resulted in adapting and mutating bacteria, thus contributing to the importance of automated microbiology. Additionally, the rapid identification of diseases and causative pathogens is a necessary means to ensure good public health.
Over the years, there has been significant advancement in the field of microbiology. For instance, the STEC test by BioControl Systems helps to detect non-O157 serotype of e.coli with the help of molecular and food microbiology technology as well as BacT/ALERT 3D microbial detection system introduced by bioMeriux. Automated microbiology provides several benefits such as early detection and easy access system. The development of new systems provides amplified profits to service vendors and leading companies in the automated microbiology market. For instance, in April 2017, a major company offering in-vitro diagnostics solutions, bioMérieux announced that it received the approval for its innovative, fully automated blood culture system from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
