[Research Report] The companion animal diagnostics market is expected to grow from US$ 3,139.74 million in 2022 to US$ 6,303.87 million by 2030; it is expected to register a CAGR of 9.1% from 2022 to 2030.

Market Insights and Analyst View:

The companion animal diagnostics market size is expanding with the rising cases of infectious diseases and growing awareness about the use of point-of-care diagnostics for the detection of animal diseases. Point-of-care diagnostics (POCDs) are simple, rapid, and portable diagnostic devices that can detect the disease status at the field level. In recent years, real-time PCR (qPCR) has been transitioned into a POCD platform. These fully automated platforms combine nucleic acid extraction, thermal cycling, and on-site reporting results. For instance, MiniLab from Enigma Diagnostics is a molecular diagnostic platform of 10–35 kg that is carried at the field level and used for validating African swine fever virus, classical swine fever virus, avian influenza virus, and foot-and-mouth disease virus for research purposes. The genesig detection kits of Primerdesign Ltd, UK, supply lyophilized qPCR assay kits for the diagnosis of 62 bovine, 42 equine, 47 porcine, 60 avian, 40 canine, and 26 feline pathogens for research purposes. Similarly, Boster offers Bosterbio qPCR kits to detect up to 48 individual or pooled samples. It is used for gene expression profiling, target DNA quantification, microbial detection, viral or bacterial pathogen load determination, and evaluation of primer pair performance for probe-based qPCR. Also, the increase in the adoption of companion animals and the increase in spending for well-being of their pets are factors driving the growth of the companion animal diagnostics market.      

Growth Drivers and Challenges:

Pets have become an important part of human lives. Pet adoption is a crucial component of animal welfare, giving homeless and abandoned animals a chance to live a quality life. The growth of the companion animal diagnostics market is most pronounced in nations with expanding middle-class populations, which boosts the emergence of a new pet culture based on a preference to keep pets solely for companionship, followed by their humanization. In 2022, the UK Pet Food Manufacturers' Association (PFMA) reports that 62% of households in the country own a pet of some kind. In the UK, PFMA polled close to 9,000 households. With 13 million animals, dogs continued to be the most popular pets, closely followed by cats (12 million). According to the Humane Society of the United States, ~69 million and 45.4 million households petted at least one dog and cat, respectively, in 2021–2022. The desire of pet owners to provide their animals with better care leads to a rising need for veterinary diagnostics, and growing awareness regarding disease diagnosis among pet owners is driving the companion animal diagnostics market expansion.

Veterinary medicine businesses seek candidates with advanced management skills to provide support in complex businesses. According to the US National Research Council Committee, institutes and companies involved in veterinary research face challenges in maintaining the economic sustainability of veterinary practices to meet the transforming needs of societies. As of 2022, the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) noted that only 78,717 veterinarians are registered for clinical practice in the US, and 14,158 work as public/corporate employees. The country experiences a limited enrolment of students in various veterinary research fields, such as pathology, toxicology, and laboratory animal medicine. Thus, the limited availability of skilled professionals in developed and developing countries hinders the growth of the companion animal diagnostics market.

Report Segmentation and Scope:

The companion animal diagnostics market is divided on the basis of technique, product, application, companion animal type, end user, and geography. Based on technique, the companion animal diagnostics market is segmented into immunodiagnostics, clinical biochemistry, hematology, urinalysis, molecular diagnostics, and others. The immunodiagnostics segment is sub-segmented into lateral flow assays, ELISA tests, allergen-specific immunodiagnostic tests, and immunoassay analyzers. The clinical biochemistry segment is further categorized into clinical chemistry analysis, glucose monitoring, and blood gas electrolyte analysis. Based on product, the companion animal diagnostics market is bifurcated into instruments and consumables. Based on application, the companion animal diagnostics market is segmented into bacteriology, clinical pathology, virology, parasitology, and others. Based on companion animal type, the companion animal diagnostics market is segmented into dogs, cats, horses, and others. Based on end user, the companion animal diagnostics market is segmented into diagnostic laboratories, veterinary hospitals and clinics, and research institutes and universities. Based on geography, the companion animal diagnostics market is segmented into North America (the US, Canada, and Mexico), Europe (the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Russia, and the Rest of Europe), Asia Pacific (China, Japan, India, South Korea, Australia, Southeast Asia, and the Rest of Asia Pacific), the Middle East & Africa (the UAE, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and the Rest of Middle East & Africa), and South & Central America (Brazil, Argentina, and the Rest of South & Central America).

Segmental Analysis:

Based on technique, the companion animal diagnostics market is segmented into immunodiagnostics, clinical biochemistry, hematology, urinalysis, molecular diagnostics, and others. The immunodiagnostics segment is sub-segmented into lateral flow assays, ELISA tests, allergen-specific immunodiagnostic tests, and immunoassay analyzers. The clinical biochemistry segment is further categorized into clinical chemistry analysis, glucose monitoring, and blood gas electrolyte analysis. The immunodiagnostics segment held the largest share of the market in 2022 and is estimated to register the highest CAGR in the market during 2022–2030. Immunoassays are biochemical tests that use antigen-antibody binding reactions to detect the presence of particular molecules in the sample. The applications of immunoassay in veterinary science are vast and form the basis of most studies of infections in animals. The immunodiagnostics include tests such as lateral flow assays, ELISA tests, allergen-specific immunodiagnostic tests, and immunoassay analyzers. Owing to the high specificity and sensitivity, these tests are expected to witness rapid growth during 2022–2030. Clinical biochemistry is the division of veterinary laboratory medicine that measures biological chemical compounds in the blood, urine, and other body fluids using molecular and biochemical reactions. The test results help in the detection of health problems, determining prognosis, and also helps in guiding physicians toward the right therapy for the patient. Biochemical tests are also used to monitor the adverse effects of therapeutic drugs. This segment includes tests such as clinical chemistry analysis, glucose monitoring, and blood gas electrolyte analysis. Molecular diagnostic tests refer to the detection of nucleic acid (DNA/RNA) of an infectious agent in the given sample. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), quantitative PCR, reverse transcription PCR, duplex and multiplex PCR, and DNA sequencing are among the techniques used to carry out these tests. Quantitative PCR offers better sensitivity and specificity compared to conventional PCR. Many laboratories offer molecular diagnostics services, which include the identification of a broad range of viral, bacterial, and vector-borne pathogens. Molecular diagnostics offer more sensitivity and specificity, and pathogens can be detected quickly even in a small amount of specimen. These advantages are estimated to accentuate the growth of the molecular diagnostics segment.
