The Asia Pacific direct-to-consumer genetic testing market was valued at US$ 354.24 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 1,530.84 million by 2030; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 20.1% from 2022 to 2030.
Growing Adoption of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) Chips Fuels the Asia Pacific Direct-to-Consumer Genetic Testing Market
There has been a steady paradigm shift from traditional medicine to personalized medicine with increasing scientific knowledge in recent years. This shift is due to advances in genetic engineering, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping, and the high adoption of microarrays and biochip technologies. The introduction of genetic microarray analysis platforms with hundreds of thousands of SNPs will encourage the implementation of advanced algorithms to test for more secluded genealogical relationships more openly between individuals. In addition, the demand for detecting malignant tumors has also increased. In the pediatric field, the short turnaround time without the need to hybridize SNP variations to massive deletions has led to enormous demand. As a result, the market is expected to grow as more genetic abnormalities are detected and treated.
SNP chips with high efficiency and accuracy are witnessing an increase in demand due to the constant need for technologically advanced and more sophisticated DTC genetic testing. A high preference for SNP chips can be attributed to their ability to measure dosage changes and DNA polymorphism, along with various applications such as the SNP microarray analysis that are vital for cancer research. Furthermore, an increasing need to minimize errors in DTC genetic testing is expected to drive the adoption of SNP technology, thereby providing an opportunity for the market growth.
