Nucleic Acid Isolation and Purification Market Size & Share Analysis - Growth Trends & Forecasts (2024 - 2029)

Nucleic Acid Isolation & Purification Market Analysis

The Nucleic Acid Isolation And Purification Market size is estimated at USD 4.45 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 6.81 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 8.89% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

COVID-19 significantly impacted the growth of the market during the pandemic period. This was mainly due to the significant increase in testing and drug research about the disease. During the pandemic, the need for nucleic acid and purification grew due to research in this field to better understand the dynamics of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and COVID-19 infection. For instance, as per the NCBI article published in November 2021, a direct capture method for the purification and detection of viral nucleic acid enabled epidemiological surveillance of SARS-CoV-2. Also, the usage of nucleic acid and purification in the diagnostic assays and molecular testing of COVID-19, along with vaccine development, played a vital role in the market's growth. In addition, the rising research activities due to the emergence of mutant strains of COVID-19 during the post-pandemic period are expected to contribute to the market growth over the forecast period.

Factors such as an increase in demand for sequencing platforms in clinical diagnostics, a rise in genomics research, and growth in funding for research and development in molecular biology are anticipated to drive the market growth over the forecast period. For instance, PCR Biosystems offered grants for UK researchers worth EUR 10,000 (USD 10,591.08) for funding polymerase chain reaction (PCR) reagents to scientists working in human health, microbiology, plant sciences, environment, and sustainability, and other such research areas. Thus, research will likely require more nucleic acid extraction and isolation products, thereby driving market growth over the forecast period.

Furthermore, product launches and collaboration by the key players are anticipated to strengthen the competition in the market. For instance, in April 2022, Purigen Biosystems, Inc., a provider of next-generation technologies for extracting and purifying nucleic acids from biological samples, launched the Ionic Cells to Pure DNA Kit. The new kit was optimized to allow users of the Ionic Purification System to extract increased yields of high-quality DNA from WBCs, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), and cultured or sorted cells. Furthermore, in November 2021, Bertin Bioreagent launched two kits to extract DNA and total RNA from animal tissues. These kits are part of a complete sample preparation workflow that starts with tissue homogenization using Precellys instruments. The Bertin Life Sciences R&D team validated their quality.

Hence, due to the rise in research activities, funding in the field of nucleic acid isolation and purification, and an increase in reagent product launches, the nucleic acid isolation and purification market is anticipated to witness growth over the forecast period. However, the increasing cost of automated instruments and the lack of skilled professionals are expected to restrain the market's growth over the forecast period.

Nucleic Acid Isolation & Purification Industry Segmentation

As per the scope of the report, nucleic acid isolation is the process by which DNA and/or RNA are separated from proteins, membranes, and other cellular material, and purification removes as much of the additional lipids and proteins from the sample as possible. Nucleic Acids are the key component for many of today's molecular testing methods; therefore, the quality of the isolation step in the process is very important. The Nucleic Acid Isolation and Purification Market are segmented by Technology (Column-based Purification, Magnetic Bead-based Purification, and Reagent-based Purification), Product (Kits and Reagents, Equipment, and Other Products), Application (Total RNA Isolation and Purification, mRNA Isolation and Purification, microRNA Isolation and Purification and Purification and Plasmid DNA Isolation and Purification, Genomic DNA Isolation and Purification, Blood DNA Isolation and Purification, PCR Clean-up, Other Nucleic Acid Isolation, and Purification Applications), End User (Hospitals, Academic and Research Institutes, Pharmaceutical/Biotechnology Industry, and Other End Users), and Geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and South America). The market report also covers the estimated market sizes and trends for 17 different countries across major regions globally. The report offers the value (in USD million) for the above segments.
