VDRL Rotators Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2022-2028)

VDRL (Venereal Disease Research Laboratory) Rotators is a laboratory equipment used to detect syphilis, a sexually transmitted disease. It measures the reaction of syphilis antibodies in a patient's blood and can be used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment. The test involves rotating a sample of the patient's blood on a slide to observe the reaction and determine if syphilis is present. The rising demand for screening tests like VDRL increases as the rate of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) continues to rise, growing medical technology and more advanced diagnostic tests contribute to the growth of the VDRL rotators market.

The VDRL rotators market is expected to grow at a steady rate of around 6% owing to improved diagnostic tests, a growing geriatric population, and increased awareness of the importance of regular health check-ups. Also, the need for early detection and treatment of sexually transmitted diseases is driving demand for VDRL rotators. For instance, according to the WHO, more than 1 million sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are acquired every day worldwide, the majority of which are asymptomatic.

Based on type, the market is segmented into rotator with display and rotator without display. Among them, rotator with display category to witness higher CAGR during the forecast period. These rotators typically feature a built-in display screen that allows users to easily monitor and control the speed and rotation of the samples. The major factors for the growth of this segment are the increasing adoption of automation in medical laboratories, the growing prevalence of infectious diseases, advancements in technology leading to high-precision rotators with displays, and growing demand for these rotators because of its easier to use and more accurate in their results.

On the basis of application, the market is categorized into hospital, specialty clinic, research and development laboratory, and clinical laboratories. Among these, the research and development laboratory held a significant share of the market in 2021. This is mainly due to these laboratories performing various diagnostic tests, the increasing need for accurate and efficient diagnostic tests, and research experiments in the medical and scientific industries driving the growth of the market.

For a better understanding of the market adoption of the VDRL rotators industry, the market is analyzed based on its worldwide presence in the countries such as North America (U.S., Canada, Rest of North America), Europe (Germany, U.K., France, Spain, Italy, Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, Rest of Asia-Pacific), Rest of World. APAC is anticipated to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period. This is mainly due to the growing demand for accurate & cost-effective solutions in medical diagnostics, increasing adoption of point-of-care testing in the region. Also, the availability of leading medical technology companies, the region has a strong healthcare infrastructure, and a growing rate of sexually transmitted diseases increasing demand for VDRL tests and other diagnostic tests, as well as the development of new technologies and the focus on public health, are also likely to drive the demand for VDRL rotators in North America. For instance, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that there were nearly 2.4 million cases of chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis reported in the US in 2019, the highest number ever recorded.
