Current And Forthcoming Malaria Diagnostics Market Size In Terms Of Volume And Value 2019

The Global Malaria Diagnostics Market Expected to Garner a CAGR of 4.63% During the assessment period between 2018 and 2023. It is reported in a study released by Market Research Future (MRFR), that the market is positively influenced by a number of factors.
Malaria is a serious life-threatening disease caused by a parasite, transmitted by the bite of infected anopheles mosquitoes. Infected mosquitoes transport the Plasmodium parasite. When the infected mosquito bites you, the parasite is released into your bloodstream. Once the human body becomes the host for the parasite it travels to the liver and matures. After some days, the mature parasite enters the bloodstream and starts to infect red blood cells (RBC). Humans suffering from malaria frequently experience fever, headache, weakness, vomiting
A major factor influencing this growth is the increasing advancements in technology related to diagnostic tools and the proliferating demand for such treatments in malaria-endemic countries. Other factors driving the market growth are rising support from the government in terms of investment funds and an increase in the collaboration between the research centers and the industry. Malaria diagnostic tests play a significant role in identifying malarial cases, which thereby boosts the growth of the overall malaria diagnostic market size.
However, the lack of precise monitoring standards at developing nations, acts as a major factor constraining the market. The lack of awareness among emerging nations and work regulatory framework is of particular concern for both manufacturers and healthcare providers.
