Malaria Diagnostics Market Trends, Growth and Insights by Technique (Rapid Diagnostic Tests, Microscopy and Molecular Diagnostic Tests, and Others) and by End-Users (Hospitals, Clinics, and Others) – Global Forecast Till 2032

Malaria Diagnostics Market Overview

 The Malaria Diagnostics Market is anticipated to reach USD 0.82 Billion by 2032 at 5.7% CAGR during the forecast period 2023-2032. Malaria is a parasitic disease conveyed by the bite of infected anopheles mosquitoes. The Plasmodium parasite is transmitted by infected mosquitos. The parasite is released into the circulation after being bitten by an infected mosquito. When the human body becomes the parasite's host, the parasite grows in the liver. The adult parasite enters the bloodstream and infects red blood cells after a few days. Fever, vomiting, weakness, and headache are common symptoms of malaria in humans. In recent years, the global market for malaria diagnostics has grown dramatically. The market's expansion is mostly due to developments in technological innovations in diagnostic instruments, as well as rising demand for treatment in malaria-endemic nations. Furthermore, factors such as increased collaboration between research institutes and industry, as well as government funding, are expected to support market expansion in the estimated timeframe. Factors such as a lack of solid import-export rules, lack of knowledge, a weak regulatory framework, and a lack of suitable monitoring standards at the country level, on the other hand, are expected to limit the market's growth in the next years.

The malaria diagnostics market in Asia-Pacific has been segmented into Japan, China, India, South Korea, Australia, and the rest of Asia-Pacific. The malaria diagnostics market in the Middle East and Africa has been segmented into the Middle East and Africa. 

Regional Market Summary

Global Malaria Diagnostics Share, by Region, 2017 (%)

Source: MRFR Analysis

In the malaria diagnostics market, North America is anticipated to account for the largest market share due to the early adoption of advanced medical technologies, the rise in awareness, the rise in growth of the healthcare sector, and due to favorable compensation setting for many surgical procedures. In 2016, global governments of malaria-endemic countries have invested USD 2.7 billion in malaria control and elimination efforts. The US was the largest contributor by providing USD 1 billion for the eradication of malaria.

The European market is expected to hold the least share due to the growing number of malaria-free countries in the region.

The market share in Asia-Pacific is also projected to experience growth in the near future due to access to optimal treatment facilities and growing demand for advanced technology, better adoption rate, increase in disposable income, and rising medical tourism. The Asia-Pacific remains to be the second largest burden of malaria globally with 22 malaria-endemic countries accounting for roughly 28 million cases and 45,000 deaths every year. The WHO figures say that in the Asia-Pacific region, Myanmar, Pakistan, India, and Indonesia carry the highest malaria burden accounting for 89% of all malaria cases in the region.

The market in the Middle East and Africa is expected to account for the smallest share of the global malaria diagnostics market due to an underdeveloped healthcare sector, lack of technical knowledge, and poor medical facilities. Sub-Saharan Africa remains to bring an excessively high share of the global malaria burden on the Middle Eastern and African market. the region was home to 90% of malaria incidences and 92% of malaria deaths in 2015

Malaria Diagnostics Market Key Players

Some of the key players in the global malaria diagnostics market are Access Bio. Inc., Abbott Laboratories, Premier Medical Corporation Pvt. Ltd, Sysmex Partec GmbH, bioMérieux, Beckman Coulter Inc., Siemens Healthineers, Leica Microsystems GmbH, Nikon Corporation, Olympus Corporation, and Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc.Recent Development

In March 2022, Audere, a digital health foundation dedicated to improving global health, announced a partnership with Medical Diagnostech, a designer and manufacturer of lateral flow fast diagnostic test kits. Medical Diagnostech's MD SARS-nCoV-2 Antigen Device1 will be paired with Audere's HealthPulsedigital companion app as part of the agreement. In February 2022, Kemri released the first domestically produced malaria and Covid-19 test kits. Both were freed by Health CAS Rashid Aman. Researchers of the Kenya Medical Research Institute created them. According to Aman, they have performed between three and four million Covid-19 tests thus far, and they are expensive. The ministry will assist the company with manufacturing and will be the product's primary consumer.
