Global Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing Market Size Study, by Product (Manual Tests, Automated Instruments, Consumables & Media), by Technique (Disk Diffusion, Automated AST, Etest Method, Others), by Application (Drug Development, Susceptibility Testing, Others), by End-use (Hospitals, Diagnostic Laboratories, Biotechnology & Pharmaceutical Companies, Others), and Regional Forecasts 2022-2032

The global Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (AST) market, valued at USD 3.42 billion in 2023, is projected to reach USD 5.35 billion by 2032, growing at a robust CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period from 2024 to 2032. AST plays a pivotal role in combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR), a growing global health crisis caused by the overuse and misuse of antibiotics. This testing method enables healthcare providers to identify the most effective antimicrobial therapy, minimizing treatment failures and the spread of resistant pathogens.

The market's expansion is driven by the rising incidence of drug-resistant infections and an increasing focus on personalized medicine, where tailored treatments demand precise diagnostic solutions like AST. Government initiatives, such as the U.S. National Action Plan for Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria (CARB) and the Global Antibiotic Resistance and Usage Surveillance System (GLASS), are further bolstering the adoption of AST technologies. These efforts reflect the global commitment to reducing AMR through improved diagnostics and therapeutic strategies.

Technological advancements, particularly in automated AST systems, are reshaping the industry landscape. Automated systems offer higher accuracy, reduced errors, and faster turnaround times compared to manual methods. Recent innovations, such as rapid AST solutions capable of delivering results within hours, are accelerating their adoption in clinical and research settings. Companies like NanoSynex Ltd. and COPAN Diagnostics are at the forefront, introducing next-generation AST tools to the market.

Regional dynamics reveal North America as the dominant market, supported by advanced healthcare infrastructure, a high prevalence of multidrug-resistant infections, and substantial investments in R&D. Meanwhile, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to exhibit the fastest growth, driven by increasing healthcare expenditures, growing awareness of AMR, and initiatives to modernize healthcare systems. Europe also plays a significant role, benefiting from supportive policies and a focus on technological innovation.
