At 6.3% CAGR, South & Central America Lateral Flow Assay Market is Projected to be Worth US$ 837.33 Million by 2030, says Business Market Insights
According to Business Market Insights' research, the South & Central America lateral flow assay market was valued at US$ 511.69 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 837.33 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 6.3% from 2022 to 2030. Smartphone usage and AI integration in lateral flow immunoassay and evolving applications of lateral flow assays are among the critical factors attributed to drive the South & Central America lateral flow assay market growth.
Smartphone-based biosensors in optical procedures involving mechanisms such as reflection, absorption, and fluorescence have been instrumental in diagnostics, medical, healthcare, food, and environmental monitoring applications. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning are major technologies that drive this progress, providing real-time and highly accurate reads. With machine learning, reader software can quickly adapt to new tests launched by manufacturers.
Further, cloud-based systems may turn any tablet or smartphone into a universal digital reader, allowing healthcare organizations to perform lateral flow tests for the detection of any infection or marker on a large scale. This system allows any smartphone or tablet to become a universal digital reader, allowing healthcare organizations to roll out lateral flow testing for any disease or marker at scale. Furthermore, AI-driven innovative devices that can read a COVID-19 lateral flow diagnostic test using a user's smartphone have received special use approval from the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). Thus, AI integration and smartphone usage are likely to trigger the demand for lateral flow assays in the healthcare sector in the coming years.
