Mycotoxin Testing Market by Type (Aflatoxins, Fumonisins, Ochratoxin A), Sample (Animal Feed, Food), Technology, End-User - Global Forecast 2024-2030
The Mycotoxin Testing Market size was estimated at USD 2.50 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 2.67 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 7.63% to reach USD 4.18 billion by 2030.
Mycotoxins are toxic compounds produced by specific fungi, contaminating crops such as grains, nuts, and spices and posing substantial health risks to humans and animals. This mycotoxin testing has applications across multiple stages of the food supply chain such as from raw material procurement to finished product delivery, including sectors such as agriculture for testing crops such as corn, wheat, and barley, the food processing industry for ensuring safety during processing and packaging, and the animal feed industry for maintaining livestock health. Market growth is influenced by stringent global food safety regulations, heightened consumer awareness about the food safety of individuals and animals, and technological advancements that offer higher accuracy and cost-effectiveness. High testing costs, complexity of contamination, lack of standardization of test quality, and technical limitations of mycotoxin tests may hinder the market growth. Furthermore, the potential integration of advanced technologies such as IoT and blockchain, expansion into non-food sectors such as biofuel production and pharmaceuticals, and innovation in cost-effective, sensitive, and specific detection methods, along with automated and rapid testing solutions, is expected to create growth opportunities for the mycotoxin testing market.
Regional InsightsIn the Americas, majorly in the United States and Canada, high awareness of foodborne illnesses boasts a well-established mycotoxin testing infrastructure. American consumers highly value food labels indicating safety tests, which are necessary for market growth for mycotoxin testing services. Canada sees a strong preference for safely-produced, locally sourced food, further bolstering the mycotoxin testing market. In the EMEA region, food safety regulations are highly developed in the EU and enforced by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to ensure precise mycotoxin detection. EU countries have adequate research on the integration of digital technologies with traditional methods of testing. The Middle East is increasingly aware of food safety due to high import and export activities, and significant investment is being made in improving testing infrastructure in the region. The African region is emerging as a developing market for mycotoxin testing services, with increasing agricultural practices and international aid that help Africa build local capacities. In APAC, economies such as China, India, Japan, and South Korea are undergoing a surge in the food industry, which necessitates enhanced food safety measures due to significant concerns over mycotoxin contamination in cereals, nuts, and spices. Increasing demand for better-regulated food products and the adoption of advanced testing methods to meet high expectations for food quality are building the need for mycotoxin testing in the region.
