Market Overview

Microplate or a microtiter plate is flat plate with multiple wells which act as small test tubes in an experiments. It is one of the standard tool in research and diagnostic laboratories. Mostly the microplates are in enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). The microplate are of various types including different well densities such as 6, 24, 96, 384, or 1536 wells. 96 well plates is said to be most common microplate.

The microplate instruments can be of various types which are designed to use the microplates as analysis vessels like detection instruments such as readers, liquid handling instruments like dispensers and washers.

Rise in demand of diagnosis and detection of several microorganism related infections, demand to control and prevent various infective diseases and also rising prevalence of chronic conditions such autoimmune diseases, cancers etc. are the major factors attributing to the rise of global microplate instruments market. Rise in research and development activities related to field of virology and serology is another factor that can propel the growth of the global microplate instrument market.

Furthermore, increased prevalence of viral diseases and sudden viral epidemics are the factors augmenting the growth of the global market. Development of new technology like polymerase chain reaction, sequencing etc. are few other factors attributing to the growth of the global microplate instruments market during the forecast period. The cost of the instruments, implementation of excise duties etc. are the factors that can hamper the growth of the global market through 2025.
