The Genomics Solutions Segment is Projected to Grow at the highest CAGR:
The lab automation market is segmented by application into drug discovery, clinical diagnostics, genomics solutions, proteomics solutions, microbiology solutions, and other applications. While the drug discovery segment held the largest share of the market in 2017, the genomics solutions application segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
Automated solutions are being developed for genomic applications to improve process efficiency and the overall quality of genome analysis. Lab automation products are adopted widely in genomics for high-throughput requirements as automation provides greater reproducibility and throughput compared to manual methods.
North America dominated the lab automation market in 2017
North America held the largest share of the lab automation market in 2017. The implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2010 and increasing funds for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) are positively affecting the market in the region. Increasing R&D activities by biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, the growing number of tests carried out at hospitals & diagnostic labs, and the consolidation of clinical laboratories, have increased the adoption of advanced automated laboratory techniques in North America.
