Sanger sequencing, also known as chain termination sequencing, is a technique utilized to determine the nucleotide sequence of DNA. It finds application in smaller-scale projects and validating the results of deep sequencing, producing DNA sequence reads exceeding 500 nucleotides while maintaining high accuracy levels.
Sanger sequencing encompasses several types, including shotgun sequencing, targeted gene sequencing, and others. In shotgun sequencing, random fragments of a lengthy DNA molecule are sequenced in parallel and then pieced together using their overlapping segments. Laboratories employing Sanger sequencing methods can be categorized as wet labs or dry labs, while research endeavors can be conducted in-house or outsourced. These techniques are employed across various applications such as diagnostics, biomarkers, cancer research, reproductive health, personalized medicine, forensics, among others. Moreover, Sanger sequencing serves a diverse range of end-users including academic institutions, government research institutes, pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology firms, hospitals, and clinics.

This sanger sequencing market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The sanger sequencing market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.75 billion in 2024 to $3.3 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased research demand, increasing medical diagnostics, increased pharmaceutical development, increased agricultural applications, increased forensic analysis, increased biomarker discovery, increased genetic evolution studies.
The sanger sequencing market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.17 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing clinical genomics integration, expanded agricultural genomics, increasing drug safety and pharmacogenomics, increasing prenatal and newborn screening, increasing environmental DNA analysis. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements, growing demand for next-generation sequencing, increasing applications in clinical diagnostics, rising investments in genomics research, expanding use in personalized medicine.
The increase in genetic illnesses is expected to drive the growth of the Sanger sequencing market in the coming years. Genetic illnesses, or genetic disorders, are medical conditions caused by abnormalities or mutations in an individual's DNA, the hereditary material that carries genetic information. Sanger sequencing is a method used to diagnose these disorders by determining the precise order of nucleotides (the building blocks of DNA) in a specific gene or DNA region. For example, in August 2024, the National Health Service, a UK-based publicly funded healthcare organization, reported that around 2,300 people in the UK are living with thalassemia, with approximately 800 individuals affected by the severe form of the condition who rely on regular blood transfusions. Thus, the rise in genetic illnesses is fueling the growth of the Sanger sequencing market.
Leading companies in the Sanger sequencing market are focusing on expanding genomic laboratories to offer rapid Sanger sequencing services in the northern UK. Genomic laboratories are specialized facilities for conducting genetic testing and analysis, aimed at studying the structure, function, and inheritance of genes and genomes for purposes such as diagnosis, research, and personalized medicine. In June 2023, for instance, Source Genomics, a UK-based provider of genomic services, announced the expansion of their genomic laboratory to the north of the UK, which will increase their capacity for Sanger sequencing services and reduce data turnaround times. This geographic expansion represents a significant step in providing equitable access to genomic services across the UK, enabling research organizations nationwide to benefit from high-quality Sanger sequencing services with faster turnaround times.
In January 2023, Qiagen, a German company specializing in sample and assay technologies, acquired Verogen for $150 million. This strategic move enables Qiagen to optimize its renowned sample extraction and library preparation automation capabilities, thereby bolstering the channel reach and market presence of both companies in support of the forensic market. Verogen, based in the United States, is a leading provider of Sanger sequencing solutions tailored for human identification and forensic laboratories.
