The global nucleic acid amplification testing market size is expected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the rising demand for advanced diagnostic measures and increased expenditures in the development of novel biotechnology diagnostic procedures. Furthermore, the rising incidence of infectious diseases linked to vectors such as bacteria and viruses is also boosting the overall market growth.
The nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) is primarily conducted to detect some particular components and vectors including nucleic acid, bacteria or virus, which acts as a pathogen causing several diseases. The test involves an examining of biological samples such as blood, urine, and tissues to identify the presence of foreign vectors. Sample collection and nucleic acid (NA) extraction, target NA amplification, and target amplicon NA detection are the three main phases involved in a nucleic acid test. The NAAT involves an amplification stage for genetic material amplification and technique such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR), strand displacement assay (SDA), or transcription-mediated assay (TMA) amplification of particular N. gonorrhoeae DNA or RNA sequences. NAATs can vary in terms of the required equipment and infrastructure, pre-amplification sample processing, reaction temperature, time to result, ease of use, detection limit, and cost. All tests, however, follow a similar procedure for their execution.
Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, NAAT technique is employed for the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2. The technique helps in the identification of the ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequences, which act as a favorable component for the virus growth. If any virus genetic material is found in a patient’s samples, the NAAT technique first identify it by amplifying or creating numerous copies of it. The technique also can identify extremely small levels of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in a sample because those nucleic acids are amplified, making them very sensitive for diagnosing COVID-19. NAATs have been approved for the use of various settings including laboratory facilities and Point-of-Care (POC) settings. Some NAATs can be performed at home or in other non-medical settings.
