The Allergy Testing Kits Market – Introduction
Allergies are highly common chronic conditions, worldwide, which ranges from mild symptoms to life threatening reactions. These allergic reactions occur in the immune system and are caused due to different foreign particles which are called allergens. These allergens include dust, pollen, food, medication or drugs, animal dander, mold, insect stings, and latex. These allergies are diagnosed by different allergy tests, which also determine the presence of allergens and antibodies developed by the immune system.
Allergy testing kits are products and reagents that are used in allergy testing in order to diagnose of various allergies such as food and drug allergies. These kits are utilized to carry out various tests, ranging from small & simple skin allergy test to major ELISA tests. They are majorly utilized by diagnostic laboratories to detect the presence of food and other allergens that have the potential to cause an allergic reaction. After the tests, the physician can prescribe and treat allergic symptoms and suggest precautions for allergic reactions. These testing kits include strips, antibody coated incubation vials, extraction tubes, extraction buffers, and surface swabs.

Allergy Testing Kits Market – Dynamics
Rise in cases of allergies worldwide and increased pollution level driving global market
Rise in prevalence of various type of allergies is a major factor driving the global allergy testing kits market. For instance, according to Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, more than 50 million people in the U.S. experience various types of allergies each year, which is 6th leading cause of chronic illness in the U.S in 2014.
Moreover, rise in pollution levels across the globe is also a leading cause for allergies. Elevated levels of pollution, particularly air pollution, cause various allergies. These allergies are diagnosed by different allergy tests, which in turn is boosting the global allergy testing kits market.
Favorable medical reimbursement for allergy diagnosis and advanced technologies & new tests developed for allergy diagnosis to drive global market
Rise in access for allergy diagnosis medical insurance in developed countries is also propelling the global allergy testing kits market. For instance, as per one study on private insurance claim lines and food allergies conducted by Food Allergy Research & Education (FARE), claim lines with diagnoses of anaphylactic food reactions rose 377% from 2007 to 2016 in the U.S. Furthermore, several new technologies and advanced product lines offered by major players are propelling the global allergy testing kits market.
Affordability issues for small laboratories and difficulty in quality control of test results restraining allergy testing kits market
Standard measures for quality control of tests results for allergy diagnosis and higher cost of several tests are key factors that are likely to hamper the global allergy testing kits market. An accurate result should maintain blood sample, assay, instrument, kits, and report interpretation. Hence, slight variation in standard units and procedure may vary results.
North America Allergy Testing Kits Market – Dominant region
North America dominated the global market in 2018. It is projected to maintain its position during the forecast period. Rise in prevalence of different types of allergies in the region, presence of major players, and environmental & industrial factors that lead to pollution and subsequently allergies are major factors driving the market in the region. According to American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology, in 2012, around 17.6 million adults were diagnosed with hay fever in the U.S.
