The market for antimicrobial susceptibility testing is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 5.4% from 2020 to 2027 and expected to reach the market value of around US$ 4,764.3 Mn by 2027.

Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing or AST is a laboratory procedure performed by medical technologists particularly to determine which antimicrobials will inhibit the growth of the bacteria or fungi causing a specific infection. The results of this test help practitioners to determine which drug is most effective to treat a person's infection. Additionally, on a large scale, it aids in the evaluation of treatment services provided by the clinics, hospitals, and national programs for the control and prevention of infectious diseases. 

Market Dynamics

The rising incidence of infectious diseases across the globe coupled with epidemic & pandemic events like coronavirus are driving the market growth. The increasing research grants, funding, and public-private investments in the healthcare market especially in developing economies are supporting the market growth. The technological advancements associated with the testings and solutions in the healthcare sector are additionally bolstering the market growth. The growing government initiatives to detect and control antimicrobial-resistant species are further boosting the market value. The emergence of multidrug-resistance due to drug abuse is propelling the market value. Furthermore, awareness initiatives for antimicrobial resistance and its control are projected to create potential opportunities over the forecast period from 2020 to 2027.

On the other side, high cost associated with the automated identification (ID) and antibiotic susceptibility test (AST) systems are likely to limit the growth to an extent over the forecast period from 2020 to 2027.
