Overview:

Dried blood spot testing is a form of bio sampling where blood samples are blotted and dried on filter paper. It is a minimally invasive   These samples can then be easily transported under ambient conditions to an analytical lab for the necessary analysis to be completed. Other applications for dried blood spot (DBS) collection cards are biomarker development, forensic science, systems biology, drug development & discovery, as well as biomarker validation among others.

Dynamics:

The global blood spot collection cards market is expected to grow at a higher CAGR over the forecast period. The most recognized clinical use of DBS cards is when newborns are screened for metabolic disorders and congenital diseases. In this application, it is crucial that the newborn who is being screened for metabolic disorders, if found, be diagnosed at the earliest stage possible. These tests have proven to be effective in detecting disorders like classic galactosemia, sickle cell anemia, phenylketonuria, congenital hypothyroidism, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, X-linked Adrenoleukodystrophy, classic galactosemia, maple syrup urine disease (MSUD), mucopolysaccharidosis type 1, and glycogen storage disease type II (Pompe Disease).

A few factors that may restrain the growth of the global dried blood spot collection cards market over the forecast study period are the dependence on sufficient sampling, the risk of contamination, and the impact of spot inhomogeneity & spotted volume.

With respect to the application, the global dried blood spot collection cards market is segmented as follows – newborn screening, therapeutic drug monitoring, infectious disease testing, forensics, and other applications. The newborn screening segment held the largest revenue share of the market in 2018. This can be attributed to particulars such as a short diagnosis period, reproducibility, reduced biohazards risks, minimally invasive procedure, high-precision, simple to transport, easy collection and storage when compared to various techniques of blood collection.

DBS is an attractive solution for therapeutic drug monitoring due to its non-contagious character coupled with the potential for remote or home sampling. Antimalarials, antibiotics, anti-convulsants, anti-depressants, antiretrovirals, and analgesics among others, are some of the various drug classes tested using DBS-based therapeutic drug monitoring.

In terms of card type, market segmentation is as follows – FTA, Ahlstrom 226, Whatman 903 among others. In 2018, Whatman 903 possessed the largest revenue share of the global dried blood spot collection cards market owing to its efficient method for easy collection, transport, and identification of samples.

The Ahlstrom 226 blood collection cards segment is expected to surge market growth due to its simplicity of collection, reduced input & waste, storage & transport, and excellent reproducibility among other factors.

FTA cards are slated to experience rapid growth over the forecasted period as they are convenient and offer rapid test analysis research activities.

Regional Analysis:

With respect to the regional segmentation of the market, North America accounted for the majority revenue share of the global dried blood spot collection cards market in 2018. The market in Europe is expected to contribute to the growth of the global market owing to a prevalence of hepatitis B in the region.

The regions of the Middle East and Africa are also slated to experience market growth that is financially rewarding over the forecast period.
