Market Segmentation, Outlook & Regional Insights: Food Pathogen Testing Market

 Food Pathogen Testing Market, By Contaminant, 2013-2024, (Million tests)

 

Consistent development in global food & beverage industry in terms of quality to meet customer expectations will drive food pathogen testing market. As per analysis, the food industry is projected to surpass USD 3.03 trillion by 2020, growing at a rate of 4.5%.

 

Dairy industry expansion is directly proportionate food pathogen testing demand. Improvement in milk processing technologies and farmer's training and strict safety norms by the government are likely to propel industry growth. According to FAO, Asia Pacific dairy industry expenditure was around USD 100 billion in 2016 and it is projected that milk production will surpass 120 million tons in coming years.
 

Increasing safety regulations owing to number of cases regarding food poisoning has positively influenced demand. Statistics suggests that around 1 in every 10 persons fall ill every year due to contaminated food consumption. Shifting trends towards globalization in food supply chain management owing to flexible trade policies promoting import and export will further support industry growth.
 

Advancement in contaminant detection methods including polymerase chain reaction and immunomagnetic separation for reducing detection time and sensitivity will provide lucrative opportunities for industry growth. However, lack of awareness and knowledge about the food safety regulations among manufacturers may hamper industry growth.
 

Food Pathogen Testing Market, By Contaminant

Salmonella was valued at over USD 1.2 billion in 2016, rise in substantial number of food borne disease owing to presence of salmonella in fruits & vegetables, processed food, dairy, and meat will drive demand.
 

Listeria will witness gains at over 7% up to 2024. Increasing disease outbreak because of listeria contamination will support this segment’s growth. Serious complications cause including, miscarriage in pregnant women, pre-mature delivery, still birth and infection in new born has increased market penetration.
 

Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has estimated that in the U.S., listeria is the third leading cause of death of over 260 people every year. More than 1,600 people get sick from listeria every year in the U.S.
 

E. coli will be worth over USD 1.1 billion by 2024. Increasing incidences of various diseases including, diarrhea, urinary tract infection, respiratory illness and pneumonia will drive this segment’s growth.
 

Food Pathogen Testing Market, By Technology

Traditional technology segment will grow at over 6.5% up to 2024. Low initial cost and simple steps associated with the test will support this segment’s growth during forecast period. PCR technology holds 14% of the overall industry share. Increased accuracy, reduced cost and rapid test results is likely to drive this segment growth.
 

Rapid technology method will be worth over USD 3.5 billion by 2024. Low processing cost, less time & labour requirement and high-test speed are the factors propelling this segment growth. However, high initial cost may retrain the rapid technology industry growth.
 

Food Pathogen Testing Market, By Food

Meat & poultry will grow at over 7% up to 2024. campylobacter E. coli and salmonella are the key contaminants found in these products. Poor hygienic conditions and improper handling during skinning & befeathering results in contamination which is expected to support this segment growth. FSIS have established new rules for preventing meat & poultry products contamination in processing & slaughter plants based on Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) system.
 

Dairy segment was valued at over USD 600 million in 2016. Increased diseases in animals owing to direct contact of milk with infected animals has resulted in product demand in this segment. High survival rate of some microbes including, listeria post pasteurisation technique is encouraging the industry growth.
 

Food Pathogen Testing Market, By Region

North America market will be worth over USD 2 billion by 2024. Increasing awareness among consumers towards fodder safety, recent disease outbreaks and rising usage of preservatives are the key factors supporting the industry growth in this region. High medical expenses and increased use of genetically modified organisms in food & beverages industry will fuel regional industry growth.
 

Stringent government regulations regarding product safety has further up surge the industry growth. For instance, CFIA lays down safety standards for taking corrective actions including, issuing public notices, sampling and recalling of products posing health risks.
 

Asia Pacific will witness gains at over 8% up to 2024. Stringent government norms coupled with increasing number of manufacturing firms will drive regional industry growth. Japan has been on the forefront for registering patents to develop technologies used for detecting contaminants.
 

Europe market will be worth over USD 1.7 billion by 2024, rise in meal contaminant illness. Increasing government efforts for curbing pathogens related epidemics will support industry growth in the region.
 

Key Players, Recent Developments & Sector Viewpoints: Food Pathogen Testing Market
