Next Generation Sequencing Market Size, Share, Trends and Forecast 2016

The global market for next generation sequencing is expected to reach USD 27.87 billion by 2022. Technological developments in the field of genomic sequencing is expected to cause a decline in the cost of sequencing per base pair and thereby, greatly enhance adoption and usage rates of next generation sequencing over the forecast period. With this expected increase in usage of whole genome sequencing, a consequent increase in revenue from HLA and prenatal testing segments is also expected, owing to the introduction of more informative novel phase resolved single cycle reads. Growing incidences of cancer and infectious diseases are further expected to fuel the growth of the next generation sequencing market over the forecast period.

Further key findings from the study suggest:

Targeted sequencing & resequencing was the leading technology segment of the market in 2014, majorly owing to rapidly growing demand in oncology and infectious diseases related research. Sequencing of targeted genes allows researchers to gain insights into the functioning of cancer cells and pathogenic life cycles. Growing incidences of life threatening forms of cancer and infectious diseases is a high impact rendering factor expected to contribute to the growth of this segment over the forecast period.

The next generation sequencing based oncology market is expected to lead the market in terms of revenue throughout the forecast period. However, the use of NGS in fields of HLA and prenatal testing are expected to grow at a relatively higher rate through to 2022, owing to the introduction of techniques which can enable researchers to acquire phase-resolved HLA and prenatal sequences in single cycle reads. In addition, recent developments are expected to solve sequencing ambiguity issues and provide greater insights about genetic functioning.
