Challenges include pricing pressures due to reimbursement cuts and stringent regulatory approvals. Significant growth opportunities exist in emerging markets like China, India, Brazil, and Mexico. In 2022, glucose monitoring products held a significant market share, with lateral flow assays leading by platform. Major players include Abbott Laboratories, F. Hoffman-La Roche Ltd., BD, Danaher Corporation, and Siemens Healthineers. Recent developments feature FDA approvals for new diagnostic panels by bioMĂ©rieux and BD, and a partnership between Thermo Fisher Scientific and Project HOPE to expand HIV testing in Sub-Saharan Africa. |
