The blood group typing market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.46 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of molecular typing techniques, rising demand for rapid compatibility testing, expansion of automated laboratory workflows, growing investments in transfusion safety systems, technological advances in blood group diagnostics. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of automated blood typing systems, rising demand for high-throughput testing platforms, growing use of molecular blood group typing, expansion of advanced reagent and kit solutions, enhanced focus on transfusion safety.
The blood group typing market experienced growth during the historic period, driven by a notable increase in the number of blood donations and transfusions. Various non-profit organizations, government entities, and agencies have been actively promoting the significance of blood donations through awareness campaigns. This surge in blood donations has led to an augmented demand for blood group typing, enabling donors to ascertain their blood type. For instance, in February 2024, according to CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), U.S-based government agency reported that, in 2024, there are approximately 7 million blood donors and more than 14 million units of blood transfused annually in the United States. The upswing in blood donations and transfusions has thus been a significant factor propelling the growth of the blood typing market.
Leading companies in the blood group typing market are focusing on developing innovative products using advanced technologies like next-generation sequencing (NGS) to improve the accuracy and efficiency of blood typing processes. NGS allows for a detailed analysis of genetic variations in blood group antigens, providing more precise and comprehensive blood group typing. For example, in April 2023, Metropolis Healthcare Limited, an India-based healthcare company, introduced the NextGen HLA Typing Test. This test leverages NGS technology to enhance the precision of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing for organ transplants, improving compatibility assessments between donors and recipients, which is essential for successful transplant outcomes.
In March 2023, Werfen, S.A., a Spain-based company operating in blood group typing, hemostasis, and transfusion, completed the acquisition of Immucor Inc. for approximately US$2 billion. This strategic move expanded Werfen's position as a reference business in the specialized diagnostics market and broadened its diagnostic solutions for hospitals and clinical laboratories. The acquisition integrated Immucor Inc., a U.S.-based company specializing in blood group typing, into Werfen's portfolio, strengthening the company's range by adding Transfusion and Transplant product lines to its existing Hemostasis, Acute Care, and Autoimmunity business lines. The acquisition is a testament to Werfen's commitment to enhancing its capabilities and offerings in the blood gas and electrolyte analyzer market.

This blood group typing market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
Blood group typing is a method employed to determine an individual's blood type, facilitating safe blood donation or transfusion.
Key types of blood group typing include antibody screening, cross-matching tests, ABO tests, antigen typing, and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing. Antibody screening tests are conducted in clinical laboratories or blood banks to identify unexpected antibodies, such as alloantibodies, in the serum related to non-ABO blood group antigens. Cross-matching tests are integral to blood compatibility testing before transfusions. HLA typing, a genetic test, identifies variations in immune system proteins, commonly used for matching patients and donors in bone marrow or cord blood transplants. ABO tests categorize blood types into A, B, AB, or O. Antigen tests, utilizing immunoassays, detect specific viral antigens and are employed in the diagnosis of respiratory pathogens like influenza viruses. Products used for blood group typing include instruments, reagents, and kits, employing techniques such as serology tests and molecular tests. Blood group typing finds application in hospital-based laboratories, independent laboratories, and blood banks.
