Blood Group Typing Market

Blood Group Typing Market Outlook 2031:

The global blood group typing market size was valued at USD 1.80 Billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 3.94 Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 9.1% during the forecast period 2023 - 2031. The growth of the market is attributed to wide application of blood group testing in neonatal evaluation and forensic laboratories, increasing government initiative to promote blood donation, and development of advance technologies for blood group typing devices.

Blood is made up of red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelets that are collectively known as blood plasma. Blood group testing is carried out by characterization of antibodies and antigens exist in circulatory system in the body. According to ABO system, the blood groups are primarily categorized as A, B, O, and its derivative groups.

Among these, AB blood group followed by Rh system is known for positive or negative blood group based on antigen present. Blood group typing is compulsory process before blood transfusion to estimate blood compatibility between the donor and recipient. For testing of blood group, the red blood cells are centrifuge with various antibody samples.

For instance, if the solution containing anti-B antibodies and a person with B-antigen, then the resulting blood group is B due to both the antibody and antigen clump with each other. Blood group typing is very important during pregnancy for reducing risk of anemia in infants.

One key aspect for the growth of the market is due to a vast arrangement of blood donation programs globally with the participation from several non-governmental organizations. Various regulatory agencies across regions are actively engaged in advancement and execution of programs for accessibility improvement to secure blood transfusion.

Additionally, several policies are enforced by governments to prevent bioterrorism and illegal operations of blood banks. These blood donation campaigns, increasing number of blood banks, and favorable government policies further increase demand of blood testing kits are key factors offering market growth.

Blood Group Typing Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities

• Rising prevalence of infectious diseases and chronic illness, which require blood transfusion during surgical treatment are expected to boost the market.
• Increasing use of blood group typing in neonatal evaluation and forensic laboratories as well as high demand of blood related testing kits are pushing the market growth at a rapid pace.
• Increasing healthcare initiatives by government & nongovernment agencies for spreading awareness of blood donations and its benefits for regulating the blood circle are projected to propel the market.
• Rapid expansion of research studies to develop advanced testing kits & technologies for identification of blood group at molecular level such as DNA microarray approach are the key factors spurring the market expansion during the forecast period.
• The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is expected to hinder the market growth due to decreased volunteer participation in blood donation programs. Moreover, lack of effective evaluation and lack of skilled medical professionals & infrastructure in the laboratories are key challenges that can hamper the market growth.
