Global Microbiology Testing Market Growth (Status and Outlook) 2025-2031

The global Microbiology Testing market size is predicted to grow from US$ 8190 million in 2025 to US$ 12940 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.9% from 2025 to 2031.

Microbiological testing is used in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, municipal water, and food and beverage industries to provide safe consumer products. From bioburden testing to mycoplasma testing, pathogen and spoilage testing, pyrogen testing, sterility testing, air monitoring, and surface testing, a variety of technologies are often used to ensure safety and regulatory compliance.

Traditional microbial detection methods are time-consuming (such as culture methods), but with the advancement of molecular detection technology, rapid PCR (polymerase chain reaction), gene sequencing and immunoassay technology, the detection speed and accuracy have been greatly improved. These technological innovations provide more efficient solutions for industries such as food, medical and healthcare.

Countries around the world are constantly strengthening their supervision of food safety, and food manufacturers must comply with strict standards, which has created a huge market demand for the microbial detection industry. Fast and accurate microbial detection technology can help food companies prevent microbial contamination and ensure food quality and consumer safety. With the complexity of the global supply chain, food is susceptible to microbial contamination during production, transportation and storage, increasing the demand for microbial detection. Microbial detection is particularly important in the supply chain of fresh and ready-to-eat foods.

With the increase in antibiotic resistance, the pharmaceutical industry has an increasing demand for microbial detection technology. Technological advances in detecting resistant strains provide support for the development of new antibiotics and the formulation of effective treatment plans. Pharmaceutical companies must ensure that their products are sterile to avoid microbial contamination during production. Microbial detection technology plays an important role in quality control, drug development and production in the pharmaceutical industry.

In recent years, multiple global outbreaks of infectious diseases (such as COVID-19, avian influenza, etc.) have significantly increased the demand for pathogen detection and monitoring. This has not only promoted the application of rapid microbial detection technology in medical institutions, but also promoted the testing needs of pharmaceutical companies in the development of vaccines and antiviral drugs.
