The global microbiology diagnostic devices and equipment market is expected to register a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.7% from USD 3.42 billion in 2021 to USD 5.69 billion in 2026 and grow further at a CAGR of 8.6% from 2026 to reach USD 8.56 billion in 2031. The market growth has been driven by increased healthcare expenditure, growth in the emerging markets, rapid technological advances, fast-paced increase in the aging population and the emergence of novel pathogenic infestations. However, regulatory challenges, political uncertainties, reduction in free trade and low healthcare reimbursements have negatively impacted market growth. Going forward, a rise in funding, growth in the aging population, enhanced healthcare access, and increase in various bacterial and viral epidemics will drive the growth of the global microbiology diagnostic devices and equipment market. However, the market growth could be hindered by a lack of skilled/trained microbiologists and insufficient and outdated health systems.
