Rising Adoption of Kits and Reagents Segment
The kits and reagents segment held a significant share in 2024, as these consumables are essential for both clinical diagnostics and research workflows. Laboratories and diagnostic centers depend on high-quality, reliable reagents to ensure accurate and reproducible results. As testing volumes grow, driven by increasing demand for early genetic screening, the recurring nature of consumable use continues to boost segment performance.
Increasing Demand for the Prenatal Tests Segment
The prenatal tests segment held a sizeable share in 2024, owing to rising maternal age, increased risk awareness, and strong clinical adoption of non-invasive and invasive testing options. These tests help detect chromosomal abnormalities, genetic mutations, and fetal anomalies early in pregnancy, enabling more informed clinical decision-making. The shift toward first-trimester screening and the inclusion of expanded genetic panels have fueled sustained growth in this segment.
cfDNA to Gain Traction
The cell-free DNA (cfDNA) testing segment held a sustainable share in 2024, driven by a non-invasive, highly accurate method to screen for common chromosomal conditions like trisomy 21, 18, and 13. This method analyzes fetal DNA fragments circulating in maternal blood, reducing the need for invasive procedures like amniocentesis.
North America to Emerge as a Propelling Region
North America prenatal and newborn genetic testing market is poised to grow at a sizeable share in 2024, driven by strong healthcare infrastructure, advanced lab capabilities, and widespread access to genetic services. In the U.S. and Canada, early screening is widely adopted, supported by favorable insurance coverage, regulatory backing, and increasing public awareness. Continued investment in genomic medicine, expansion of NIPT guidelines, and integration of AI-based diagnostic tools are further fueling market growth across this region.
Major players in the prenatal and newborn genetic testing market are Genes2me, Trivitron Healthcare, Retrogen, Aetna, Fulgent Genetics, Eurofins, Illumina, CENTOGENE, Genelab (Clevergene), Thermo Fisher Scientific, Myriad Genetics, Natera, Revvity, LaCAR, BGI Group, BillionToOne, LabCorp, Agilent, and Yourgene Health.
To strengthen their position in the prenatal and newborn genetic testing market, companies are pursuing a mix of innovation-driven and expansion-focused strategies. Many are investing in R&D to develop high-throughput platforms and broaden their test portfolios to cover rare genetic conditions and inherited disorders. Strategic collaborations with hospitals, academic institutions, and technology partners are enabling faster market penetration and access to diverse patient populations.
