According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Carrier Screening Market Report by Type (Expanded Carrier Screening, Targeted Disease Carrier Screening), Medical Condition (Pulmonary Conditions, Hematological Conditions, Neurological Conditions, and Others), Technology (DNA Sequencing, Polymerase Chain Reaction, Microarrays, and Others), End User (Hospitals and Clinics, Reference Laboratories, and Others), and Region 2025-2033," the global carrier screening market reached a value of USD 2.0 Billion in 2024. Carrier screening is a genetic test carried out to identify autosomal recessive genetic disorders in individuals. It involves testing samples of blood, saliva, or tissue inside the cheek to detect the presence of an abnormal gene or chromosome. Carrier screening is widely used by pregnant women and couples planning pregnancy to analyze the risks of inheriting genetic disorders from the parents. It identifies various diseases and conditions, such as cystic fibrosis, fragile X syndrome, sickle cell disease, spinal muscular atrophy, alpha thalassemia, and Tay-Sachs disease. Carrier screening provides actionable results quickly, evaluates highly prevalent conditions, and allows couples to consider pre-pregnancy reproductive options.
Global Carrier Screening Market Trends:
The rising prevalence of fetal chromosomal abnormalities is one of the primary factors driving the market growth. Carrier screening is extensively performed to identify autosomal recessive disorders in parents to evaluate the risk of genetic diseases in their children. In addition, the rising incidences of genetic disorders based on family history and certain ethnicities to determine the risk of wide-ranging diseases and provide personalized information to individuals is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, the fueling awareness among the masses toward the benefits of early disease detection and diagnosis, such as improved chances of cure, is favoring the market growth. Additionally, the introduction of at-home testing kits that are more accessible, cost-effective, offer less invasive testing experience, and enhance comfort, is positively influencing the market growth. Moreover, the increasing demand for carrier screening, as it is a predictive and pre-symptomatic testing solution that also provides adequate prenatal and reproductive care, further helping in the proper management of heritable diseases, is providing an impetus to the market growth. Other factors, including the implementation of various government initiatives promoting large-scale carrier screening projects, increasing availability and affordability of the test, and extensive research and development (R&D) activities in biotechnology and bioinformatics, are anticipated to drive the market growth. On account of the aforementioned factors, the market value is expected to reach USD 4.5 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 9.3% during 2025-2033.
