Market Insights
A biochip is a device which assimilates one or more laboratory tasks on a sole chip to achieve high-throughput screening and automation. Advances in the field of nanotechnology have led to the development of lab-on-a-chip devices. Lab-on-a-chip can integrate several laboratory function in a few millimeters to a few square centimeters sized chip. A biochip device is concerned with experiments carried out on a small scale, thus it helps achieve high-throughput automation and screening. The lab-on-a-chip market is segmented into DNA microarrays, lab on a chip/microfluidics, protein microarrays, tissue biochips and carbohydrate biochips. Protein arrays led the overall product market due to wide usage of in the proteomics to understand the better understanding of the human proteome, drug discovery, diagnostics and personalized medicines. DNA microarrays is anticipated to grow at the fastest rate to growing demand of personalized medicines, target therapies and research and development of cancer therapies.
The application of lab-on-a-chip is increasing in different field of life sciences. From detecting breast cancer to screening for HIV, surviving serious disease, all of it is done with the help of a chip or a microarray. LOC technology enables the use of small fluid volumes which helps cut costs and the analysis of reagents and response time. Several applications in life science and medicine have also been explored so far including potential use in protein crystallization studies and DNA or RNA sequencing. The applications student in the global lab-on-a-chip market include genomics & proteomics, diagnostics, drug discovery and others. The diagnostics segment held the largest share in the global lab-on-a-chip market by application. Early screening of breast cancer, HIV and other infectious diseases is driving the market for diagnostics segment. Genomics and proteomics are expected to grow at the highest rate due to rising research and development studies in genetic and sequencing to drive the market in the future.
