Global Metagenomics Market: Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028

The global metagenomics market size reached US$ 505.4 Million in 2022. Looking forward, the market is expected to reach US$ 966.0 Million by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 11.40% during 2022-2028.

Metagenomics refers to the study of microbial genomes in the natural environment. It involves cloning of the genome to study the ecology, evolution and diversity, thereby bypassing the need for isolation and laboratory cultivation of individual species. Metagenomics uses sequencing and bioinformatics technologies to obtain scientific insights and is utilized as a molecular tool for analyzing the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) acquired from the environmental samples through water, soil and human waste. The samples are further processed through sequence reading, gene prediction, binning and functional annotation. The insights are used to diagnose infectious diseases, environmental remediation, gut microbe characterization and the development of biofuels.

Metagenomics Market Trends

The increasing prevalence of virus-induced infections, such as diarrhea, influenza, hepatitis B, and HIV/AIDS, across the globe, is among the key factors driving the market growth. Moreover, the rising demand for effective solutions for the timely diagnosis of neuroinfectious diseases, such as meningitis and encephalitis, is providing a thrust to the market growth. In line with this, metagenomics also aids in identifying bacterial pathogens that can lead to foodborne disease outbreaks, which is further contributing to the growth of the market. In comparison to the traditionally used technologies, metagenomics requires a lesser number of pre-sequencing steps, enhances the authenticity of long readings and offers high read accuracy. Additionally, various technological advancements, such as the development of next-generation sequencing services, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. These solutions are integrated with data analysis software for faster data analysis and sample processing. Other factors, including extensive research and development (R&D) activities in the field of life sciences, along with the increasing utilization of metagenomics for manufacturing sustainable agricultural products, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
