Polymerase Chain Reaction is a process in which multiple copies of desired DNA sequence
is obtained in a short period of time. This technique involves three steps namely
denaturation, annealing and extension which are repeated at every cycle to obtain the
required gene amplification. PCR technology global market is advancing at a steady rate. As
estimated by IQ4I Research, PCR technology global market is valued at $XX million in 2015
and expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% to reach $15,421 million by 2022. Currently, PCR
technology has its applications in clinical diagnostics, industrial applications, and biomedical
research.
The factors driving the growth of this market are increasing demand for innovative
technology supporting early and accurate diagnosis of life threatening disease, rising
demand for PCR in genetic and molecular testing, expiry of key players PCR patents, rising
investments in the field of companion diagnostics, advent of digital PCR, increasing RT-PCR
based food safety testing, increasing affinity for automated high throughput and robotic
systems and multiplexed analytical strategies for improving sensitivity and speed of PCR
technology. However, few factors like high cost of commercial PCR assays in the clinical

diagnostics, lack of awareness and requirement of skilled labour, and development of

alternative technologies are hampering the market.
The PCR technologies global market by products is segmented into instruments, reagents
and consumables and software. Reagents and consumables holds the largest market
revenue of $XX million in 2015 and expected to reach $XX million in 2022 at a highest
CAGR of X% followed by instruments. Instruments include traditional and real-time
thermocyclers while reagents and consumables include enzymes, dNTPs, template DNA,
primers and probes, buffers, master mixes, nuclease free water and others (tracking dye and
wax beads). Software in the PCR market comprises Primer designers and sequence
softwares, PCR data analysis software and others.
By application, the market is segmented into clinical diagnostics, industrial applications, and
others (Pathogen detection and dentistry). Clinical diagnostics are further divided into
infectious and non-infectious diseases. Infectious disease includes hepatitis B & C,
tuberculosis, HIV and others. Non-infectious diseases include prenatal diagnosis, tissue
typing, cancer therapy, genetic typing for hereditary disease, blood screening and others.
Industrial applications are divided into agricultural biotechnology, environmental, applied
testing, animal husbandry and biomedical research. Applied testing includes forensic and
food safety testing while biomedical research includes DNA sequencing, genotyping,
biomarker discovery, gene expression and genetic mapping, DNA cloning and others.
Among the applications, industrial applications of PCR holds the largest share with revenue
of $XX million in 2015 and is expected grow at a CAGR of X% to reach $XX million in 2022.
Clinical diagnostics is the fastest growing segment with a CAGR of X% from 2015 to 2022.
The latest application of PCR is seen in cell-free DNA technology which used in prenatal
diagnosis of disorders.
By Technique, the PCR market is segmented into standard PCR, real-time PCR, reverse
transcriptase PCR, digital PCR, assembly PCR, multiplex PCR, hot start PCR and others.
Among the PCR techniques Real Time PCR/qPCR holds the largest share with revenue of
$XX million in 2015 and is expected grow at a CAGR of X% to reach $XX million in 2022.
Digital PCR (dPCR) is the fastest growing segment with a CAGR of XX%. The real-time
PCR, nested PCR and digital PCR technique is used where the point mutations are
analysed using qualitative real-time PCR by using specific allele probes to analyse the
genetic disorder that the foetus has developed. Droplet digital PCR is one of the new and
alternative technologies for qPCR for the quantification of DNA templates. The massive
