What Factors Will Drive the Market to Grow Over Forecast Period?

New Advancements in Diagnostic Tests for Influenza Infection

Quick reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), viral cultures, fluorescence assays, serological tests, antigen testing, and rapid molecular assays are some of the diagnostic tools available for influenza. However, due to their capacity to identify influenza viruses with low to medium sensitivity and a high specificity within 15 minutes, commercial rapid flu diagnostic tests are the most widely used approach for influenza detection.

Molecular diagnostic assays are a brand-new class of highly sensitive and specific molecular diagnostic tests for influenza that have emerged in recent years. The capacity to detect respiratory viruses has significantly improved thanks to the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and nucleic detection techniques.

The major goal of molecular tests for flu is to find specific known viruses utilizing nucleic acid amplification testing (NAT). NATs are preferable to other available diagnostic equipment in a variety of ways. They do not rely on the life of the intended bacterium and can produce results in a therapeutically appropriate amount of time. They may be able to identify low amounts of all known influenza viruses in clinical specimens.

Clinical research funding and expenditures in this field help to increase the scope of the projects that are done as well as the number of people engaged. Governments, the private sector, and businesses all provide money for research and development. For instance –

  • The Infection Control Clinical Research Consortium was announced by the Central Institute of Allergy and Diseases (NIAID) on December 19, 2019. For seven years, NIAID will provide financing for the Vaccine and Therapy Evaluation Units (VTEUs) initiative at a rate of about US$29 million annually.
  • The Collaboration Influenza Vaccine Innovations Centers (CIVICs) programme was launched by the Central Institute of Allergy and Infectious (NIAID), a division of the National Institutes of Health, on September 30, 2019. The initiative, which is intended to support CIVIC's programme centres over a seven-year period, receives roughly US$51 million in first-year funding from NIAID.

Is there Any Impact on the Growth of the Influenza Diagnostics Market?

Lack of Skilled Labour & High Testing Costs”

Despite the fact that molecular diagnostic methods have become an essential component of research in the life sciences sector, a shortage of knowledgeable people and competent operators is expected to limit market growth. With the advent of technological and procedural advancements in biotechnology, the necessity for qualified professionals to perform molecular tests for disease diagnosis has become critical.

The market for influenza diagnostics, however, is constrained by the high price of molecular diagnostic procedures, reagents, and equipment. For instance, laboratories in developing nations like India and China cannot afford the expense of nucleic acid amplification and RT-PCR for the diagnosis of the influenza virus.

Commercial rapid flu tests are the most extensively used assays for influenza detection due to their speedy detection times. However, rapid diagnostic approaches for influenza are unable to identify influenza A viral subtypes. The RT-PCR and viral culture assays require several specimen types. Furthermore, when influenza activity is high, RIDT results are commonly misinterpreted as negative.

To validate negative test results, an expensive and time-consuming diagnostic tool, such as RT-PCR, viral culture, or others, is required. Furthermore, even when there is little flu activity, false positive results might occur.

RT-PCR also has technical concerns such as duplicated structures, reversed repeats, and a higher rate of sequence error. This increases the probability of false-positive pathogen detection results. Because DNA and RNA replication is so delicate and prone to contamination, false positive results are common.
