The Global Specimen validity test reagents market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7 %. The emerging technology & innovation in healthcare has developed the specimen validity test through urine samples. Specimen validity testing (SVT) is performed on a urine drug screen specimen to detect substitution, adulteration, or dilution. It provides clinicians with critical information about the accuracy and reliability of drug test results. Drug testing is a well-established & readily available clinical tool to objectively assess an individual’s illicit drug use behaviours.

The market is driven by testing of illicit drug use by many people in various regions. Increase in number of drug abuse population and stringent regulatory guidelines enforced by regulatory agencies in developed countries such as United States are prime factors that are driving the growth of SVT reagent market. North America alone contributed more than 60 percent of total market share in 2020.
