The Global Biochips Market Demand held a market value of USD 7,300 million in 2017 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 16.6% over the forecast period.
Growth Drivers and Challenges
Microfluidics and Microarray technology have revolutionized the field of scientific research by reducing costs as well as time required for conventional laboratory-based approach of research. Microfluidics provide various benefits like reduced assay costs owing to need for less amount of sample in nano-liter or pico liter volume, increased sensitivity, accuracy, and throughput as compared to traditional laboratory procedures and also reduced labor cost. The products that are based on DNA microarrays, lab-on-a-chip, protein chips, as well as organ-on-a-chip technologies have managed to alleviate the existing problems associated with time and costs in their respective fields. Also, the research and development activities are underway at present, regarding the microarray and microfluidic technologies for numerous applications. This factor will turn out to be a high point for the market growth in the coming years. For instance, in the year 2017, Griffith Institute for Drug Discovery (GRIDD) started the process of developing microfluidic platform to further decrease time and costs needed for research.
To sum it up, extensive research and development in the field is expected to eventually elevate the adoption rate of these technologies. Case in point is the successful demonstration by scientists at Harvard University, which used the paper and threads as an ideal option for cheap microfluidic devices. moreover, integrating electrodes and electrical textile valves into such devices will make it even more useful.
