Increasing incidence of genetic and infectious diseases which can bi diagnosed and treated using dPCR techniques supports the growth of the Digital PCR (dPCR) market. The Digital PCR (dPCR) market trends include technological advancements that aid high-precision and absolute quantification of target DNA molecules, thus enabling a wide range of applications in diagnosis and research.
Growth Drivers:
Gene synthesis is the most accepted tool in the field of recombinant DNA technology. In gene synthesis, recombinant protein expression and dPCR technology are used for amplification as well as quantification purposes. In 2021, Camena Bioscience, a synthetic biology startup that supplies genes to the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, completed a US$ 10 million Series A funding round headed by Mercia. With the additional funds, the company plans to expand its operations and power its efforts of developing gSynth, its ground-breaking DNA synthesis platform. The technology platform and other related resources help the company to accelerate the development of gene synthesis.
In 2020, EVONETIX LTD, a synthetic biology startup creating a desktop platform for high-fidelity, rapid, and scalable gene synthesis, announced the completion of its Series B financing round. The company, led by Foresite Capital (a new investor), raised US$ 30 million (£23 million) in this round. Thus, rising investments by companies fuel the gene synthesis market growth, thereby contributing to the Digital PCR (dPCR) market growth.
