Recombinant Deoxyribonucleic Acid (rDNA) Technology Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Component (Cloning Vector, Expression System), Application (Food & Beverages, Agriculture, Therapeutics) and By Geography
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Recombinant Deoxyribonucleic Acid (rDNA) Technology Market is accounted for $171.21 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $301.67 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 9.9% during the forecast period. Recombinant DNA technology is a process in which creation and manipulation of the DNA sequences are in a specific order. This is resulting in the production of genetically modified organisms and products. Recombinant DNA technology (RDT) is essential for improving health conditions, primarily by developing new vaccines and pharmaceuticals.
DNA testing represented 44 percent of the global forensic technology market and was worth 4.95 billion U.S. dollars. Digital forensic technology currently represents around 30 percent of the market, around the same as ballistic forensic technology, but is forecast to exceed the DNA testing market in size by 2022.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Rising demand from various industries
Many industries are benefiting from the research conducted on genetically modified organisms (GMO), such as microorganisms that are considered as clean fuel producers and bio degraders. Genetically modified vaccines are developed for curing various diseases in humans and plants. The recombinant DNA technology created several potential innovation opportunities for developing a wide range of therapeutic products, with immediate effect in medical genetics and biomedicine, by modifying microorganisms, animals, and plants, in order to yield medically useful substances. Therefore, the increasing demand and application of RDT in various sectors are driving the growth of the market studied.
Restraint:
Risk associated with gene therapy
The global recombinant DNA technology market might face major restraints due to the risk associated with gene therapy. Another major restraint can be the stringent regulation for the approval of the product in various regions.
Opportunity:
Growth of genetic testing
In the North American and Western European regions, the genetic testing market grows larger, spreading its hands to many remote areas. Therefore, this can bring more opportunities for the service providers and companies to make the tests more affordable. Along with that, the global Recombinant DNA Technology Market is trying to enter the untapped regions to bring lucrative opportunities.
Threat:
Ethical considerations
The use of genetic modification technology has been a topic of controversies as a result of attendant ethical considerations in various applications such as gene therapy. In each of the diverse fields of medicine, agriculture, and environment, scientific and ethical concerns vary in a discipline-specific manner.
Covid-19 Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact on the market studied, as it increased the demand for recombinant DNA technology in the development of therapeutics and diagnostics. For instance, in November 2020, a research paper published in the United States National Library of Medicine named Recombinant vaccines for COVID-19 stated that the recombinant COVID-19 vaccine has the capability to overcome limitations and the safety concerns associated with other vaccines. Many COVID–19 vaccines have been manufactured by several companies.
The expression system segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
Expression systems captured the largest share owing to the ongoing developments for efficient protein expression and for its further isolation on a large scale. Majorly used expression systems are mammalian, bacterial, insects, and yeast. The development of cell lines such as HEK293 and Chinese Hamster Ovarian (CHO) has contributed to the significant share of mammalian expression systems. In addition, ongoing research studies to explore the potential of plant as expression system are expected to drive the adoption of plan expression systems for GM product development in the coming years.
The agriculture segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
In agriculture, the development of genetically modified crops, in order to improve both yield and resistance to pests or herbicides, is gaining a high degree of public acceptance. The genetically modified tomato, CGN-89564-2, was the first commercially grown, genetically engineered crop product to be granted a license for human consumption. Additionally, DNA molecular marker technology is important for preservation, identification, evaluation, mining, and innovation of plant germplasm resources. The introduction of a genetically modified fruit paved the way for the use of GMOs in food. Currently, genetic modification is witnessing a widespread adoption.
Region with largest share:
North America is projected to hold the largest market share owing to the substantial number of biopharmaceutical manufacturing participants which are headquartered in the U.S. The presence of effective regulatory bodies to monitor the various ethical and scientific concerns pertaining to the use of technology has also driven the regional growth. For instance, this country witnessed the 1st FDA approval for U.S. gene therapy treatment. The treatment was developed for leukemia, as a result of a collaboration between the University of Pennsylvania and Novartis Corp. This, in turn, is anticipated to nurture the implementation of rDNA techniques in the region.
Region with highest CAGR:
Asia Pacific is projected to have the highest CAGR due to the presence of low-cost manufacturing centers in the Asian economies, such as China. Japan is recognized as one of the world’s largest per capita importers of food and feed developed using modern biotechnology tools. Japan’s regulatory system for GE crops continues to improve. Moreover, there is no significant trade barrier in Japan to hamper GE products export from western countries. As a result, Asia Pacific is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing regional market.
