Western Blotting Market Size Worth USD 1.26 Billion By 2025 | CAGR: 7.8%

The global Western Blotting market is expected to grow at growth rate of 7.8% to reach USD 1.26 billion by 2025.

Western Blotting method is a scientific procedure that is used to identify protein sequences and complexes. It is used in the fields of molecular biology and immune-genetics due to its link with protein complexes in cell biology. Increasing incidence of HIV and AIDS globally will stimulate the demand for western blotting technology across the globe. Based on statistics presented by the United Nations Programme on HIV and AIDS (UNAIDS), 6.9 million people globally were living with HIV in the year 2017. Furthermore, factors such as growing applications, increasing research and development activities coupled with rising chronic disease incidences support the industry growth. On contrary, despite of its specificity and sensitivity, a western blot method can still produce erroneous results. A false positive results are noticed when an antibody reacts with a non-intended protein. This factor would in turn hampers the market growth to some extent. In addition, high cost coupled with low awareness in developing region pull back the growth over the forecast period.
