Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) Testing Systems Market, By Product (Instruments, Reagents & Kits), By Test Type (Immunodiagnostic Test and Molecular Diagnostic Test), By End User (Hospitals, Diagnostic Laboratories, and Academic and Research Institute), and By Region (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa) - Size, Share, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2022 - 2028
The methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are different strains of Staphylococcus aureus, or ‘staph’ bacteria that are resistant to the antibiotic methicillin as well as to related beta-lactam antibiotics such as oxacillin, penicillin, amoxicillin, and cephalosporin. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) testing is utilized to detect MRSAs and no other microbes. Nucleic acid amplification tests such as the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) can be used for direct detection of mecA, which is the most common gene mediating oxacillin resistance in staphylococci.
In the U.S. Methicillin is no longer commercially available. Therefore, the test is generally done to verify the presence of oxacillin, penicillin, amoxicillin, and cephalosporin resistance to confirm presence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria. It is prominently employed in hospitals, especially in intensive care units to inhibit MRSA from spreading to other patients. On larger levels such as community and society, the MRSA test can be employed to detect the source of an outbreak. For a national level addition, testing and research may help scientists determine the cause.
Market Dynamics
The methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) testing systems market is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period owing to the increasing number of product launches in the market. For instance, in July 2017, F. Hoffmann-La Roche announced the CE-IVD launch of the cobas MRSA/SA nucleic acid test for use on the cobas Liat System for the qualitative detection and differentiation of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Staphylococcus aureus (SA) at the point of care. MRSA and SA are both major sources of healthcare and community associated infections. The cobas MRSA/SA test is designed to support rapid screening and surveillance of MRSA & SA for use in emergency rooms, intensive care units and STAT lab settings.
However, frequent product recalls are expected to hamper the methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) testing systems market growth during the forecast period. For instance, in August 2018, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reported that French diagnostics firm BioMerieux has recalled two of its antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) cards because of false results for some strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). BioMerieux initiated the recall in January 2018, for the VITEK 2 Gram Positive Cefoxitin Screen and VITEK 2 Gram Positive AST because false tests can lead to inappropriate treatment of MRSA infection and could cause severe health consequences.
