Global Human Identification Market Overview
The key driver impacting the human identification market is the rising technological advancements in the human identification system. The leading technologies for human identification consist of rapid DNA analysis, next-generation sequencing, automated sample preparation as the most potential technologies, thus improving the mode of identification. Moreover, the increasing demand for reducing the cost and time of DNA analysis contributes to human identification market demand in the coming years.
According to Value Market Research, the global Human Identification market size was valued at about USD 1327.95 Million in 2019 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of around 13.5% during the forecast period 2021 to 2027.
The rising government initiatives and support for developing human identification products and forensic programs will likely augment the need for human identifications in the forecast period. For instance, In this regard, in March 2013, the Taiwanese government invested USD 3 million in accelerating its ongoing projects, which also includes projects for the procurement of equipment in its forensic laboratories. Furthermore, the Indian government is planning to develop a national DNA fingerprint database of criminals. The development of such a database will require high-end instruments and consumables. However, the shortage of skilled professionals or trained personnel hampers the market in the long run. In addition, the high probability of manual errors during human identification is negatively impacting the market growth. Nevertheless, the industry trends, rise in expenditure for research and development activities in the field of life sciences, and growing crime rate across the globe might provide massive market opportunities to the market's key players.
The Human identification market is widespread, with many local and international players. The market leaders follow diverse strategies to strengthen their market, such as extending product portfolio, acquisitions, contracts, amalgamation, product upgrades to raise their market share globally. The key players taken in the report are Agilent Technologies, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Qiagen N.V., Illumina Inc., Promega Corporation, LGC Limited, NMS Labs Inc., Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, General Electric Company (GE Healthcare), Hamilton Company, Eurofins Scientific, Integenx Inc.
