Microarrays are used in a variety of applications, including gene discovery, disease diagnosis, drug discovery, and toxicological research. The rising incidences of cancer are the major factor contributing to the growth of the market. Moreover, the increasing prevalence of various chronic diseases and the rise of the usage of microarray technology for the diagnosis of such infectious diseases are also contributing to the growth of the microarray market. The growing regulatory approvals to push clinical adoption of advanced diagnostic solutions are expected to drive the global microarray market during the forecast period. For instance, in April 2025, AliveDx announced the submission of FDA 510(k) for MosaiQ AiPlex CTDplus Multiplex Microarray in the U.S. This advanced diagnostic technology aims to enhance the detection of connective tissue diseases while simplifying laboratory workflows.
Market Dynamics
Technological Advancements in Microarrays
The continuous improvements in microarray technologies to enhance data analysis, faster turnaround times, and shorter cycle is expected to increase adoption in research and clinical settings. The modern microarrays have higher sensitivity and specificity, allowing precise identification of rare gene expressions and minute genetic variations. For instance, in December 2024, LinkZill announced the launch of TruArray, a TFT-DNA synthesis technology High-Throughput Oligonucleotide Microarray Chip. The microarray offers high customization flexibility and exceptional synthesis accuracy. Its rapid turnaround, strong uniformity, and broad application scope make it ideal for research, diagnostics, and synthetic biology.
Expansion in Biotechnology and Life Sciences
The increasing integration of microarrays in biotechnology and life sciences is expected to bolster the growth of the market during the forecast period. The recent advancements in microarray technology significantly contribute to biomarker discovery enhancing early disease detection and personalized medicine. For instance, in June 2024, University of Michigan researchers identified a 15-gene signature associated with clear cell renal cancer recurrence. This biomarker enables more precise risk stratification, potentially guiding tailored surveillance and treatment strategies for patients.
Market Segmentation
DNA Microarrays Segment to Lead the Market with the Largest Share
The market for DNA microarrays is increasing owing to the adoption of personalized medicine, cancer research, and infectious disease testing. DNA microarrays can detect thousands of genetic variations and are considered an essential tool for genomic research, clinical diagnostics, and drug discovery. The growing importance of genetic testing and prenatal testing is expected to propel the growth of the market during the forecast period. For instance, in November 2023, Variantyx launched IriSight CNV Analysis. IriSight CNV Analysis is a whole genome-based test designed to detect chromosomal abnormalities linked to clinical symptoms in a fetus or pregnancy, potentially indicating a genetic disorder or risk of pregnancy loss.
Diagnosis & Prognosis: A Key Segment in Market Growth
Among application segments, the diagnosis and prognosis are expected to drive the market growth significantly owing to the rising prevalence of genetic and chronic disease, technological advancements to enhance diagnostic accuracy and speed, and continuous regulatory support and approvals by regulatory bodies. The increasing FDA approvals for microarray diagnostic kits for clinical accuracy and to increase in adoption in hospitals and laboratories are expected to grow the market at a substantial growth rate. For instance, in August 2024, Illumina announced that the company had got approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its vitro diagnostic (IVD) TruSight Oncology (TSO) comprehensive test and its first two companion diagnostic (CDx) indications. The approved Illumina's TruSight Oncology Comprehensive (TOC) a microarray-based in vitro diagnostic can interrogate more than 500 genes to profile a patient's solid tumor. It helps to increase identifying an immuno-oncology biomarker or clinically actionable biomarkers that enable targeted therapy options or clinical trial enrollment.
The global microarray market is further divided by geography, including North America (the US and Canada), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand, ASEAN Countries, and the Rest of Asia-Pacific), Europe (the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Russia, and the Rest of Europe), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).
Increasing Innovation, Research, and Funding for Microarray in North America
North America is projected to have a significant share in the global microarray market due to factors such as the presence of a well-developed genetic research sector, continuous strategic initiatives by key market players, and increasing institutional and government funding. For instance, in August 2023, Thermo Fisher Scientific launched a new chromosomal microarray. The microarray is designed to improve cytogenetic research lab productivity, efficiency, and profitability. The CytoScan HD Accel array can inspect the whole human genome and assist with improved coverage in more than 5,000 critical genome regions.
Asia-Pacific holds a significant share owing to an increase in funding from the government in the healthcare sector, rising awareness towards personalized and precision medicines, and increasing various genome sequencing projects in the following region. In addition, the strategic initiatives by the key companies in the region such as Agilent Technologies Inc, F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd, bioMerieux S.A., and Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc., among others are expected to propel the market growth during the forecast period. For instance, in September 2024, PacBio announced the HiFi Solves sub-fertility consortium in Asia Pacific. Utilizing PacBio HiFi long-read sequencing, the consortium, led by KK Women's and Children's Hospital (KKH) in Singapore, is pioneering the use of PacBio HiFi long-read sequencing to enhance the diagnosis and treatment of subfertility and recurrent miscarriages (RPL). HiFi sequencing offers more than traditional methods like karyotyping, chromosomal microarray, and whole-exome sequencing. It offers a comprehensive, high-resolution approach that identifies complex chromosomal rearrangements and sub-microscopic abnormalities that other technologies may miss.
The major companies operating in the global microarray market include Agilent Technologies, Inc., Abcam Plc, Illumina, Inc., SCHOTT AG, and Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. among others.
