Companies in the DNA test kits market are increasing the availability of products, which require lesser training times. Portable COVID-19 genetic tests are replacing conventional PCR tests that take extended hours for positive results to appear.
Analysts’ Viewpoint
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the popularity of home DNA test kits. This trend is anticipated to gain momentum, since the concept of home fitness is expected to surge in the upcoming years. Internet-based DTC genetic testing kits are growing in popularity as they minimize the involvement of clinicians. However, the proliferation of such products in the absence of regulations is emerging as a potential damage to public trust. Thus, manufacturers in the DNA test kits market should increase their marketing capabilities to increase consumer acceptance toward online products. The U.S. companies are increasing efforts to increase patient’s access to NGS testing.
DNA Test Kits Market: Overview
- Around 99.5% of all human DNA is similar; however, there are some distinctions, called variants, which separate individuals. Saliva is collected through DNA test kits to extract DNA, while DNA from cells is extracted in a laboratory. Subsequently, the lab processes the DNA sample on a genotyping chip that recites thousands of variants in genome. Genetic data is processed and, based on well-established science and medical studies, customized reports are produced.
- Increase in the number of companies providing ancestry and health & fitness DNA tests directly to consumer genetic testing companies, emphasis on health risk & preventive care, and demand for ancestry DNA testing services is projected to drive the global DNA test kits market
- DNA test kits are used to collect saliva or other samples, which can be further used to extract DNA from them to be processed in laboratories. As of August 1, 2017, there were approximately 75,000 genetic tests on the market, including approximately 10,000 specific types of tests. Of the genetic samples, 86% were single-gene tests. The remaining studies included panel tests, including 9,311 algorithmic analysis multi-analyte assays, 85 noninvasive prenatal tests, 122 complete exome sequencing tests, and 873 complete genome analysis tests, including complete genome sequencing tests.
- Increasing demand for newborn and pre-natal screening for the identification of congenital defects and rising use of biobanking services involving DNA testing as a key step for cord blood banking are further driving progress in this field. Furthermore, greater tendency of physicians toward genetic testing to assess the health of patients at various stages of disease growth is another factor that is expected to drive demand over the next few years.
- Demand for DNA diagnostics is likely to increase due to the implementation of personalized medicine applications to treat chronic disorders that fuels the need for HLA typing and DNA recognition for therapy. Hi-tech advances leading to the commercialization of next-generation diagnostic and research technologies using genetic analysis are also projected to have a significant effect on the DNA test kits market.
Rise in Product Launches and Approvals of DNA Test Kits
- Product launch strategy aims to boost revenue. In March 2016, EasyDNA launched an ancestry testing service, called the British DNA test, primarily aimed at mapping the British heritage of an individual and catering to people of British descent. This launch allowed the company to broaden its current ancestry test portfolio and consolidate its position in the market for DNA testing. Living DNA Ltd. released DNA genealogy and well-being kits at the lowest retail price in October 2019. Rising numbers of product approvals are expected to drive the DNA test kits market during the forecast period.
