Global Antinuclear Antibody Test Market Research and Forecast 2018-2023
Posted: Jul 28, 2018
Antinuclear antibody test market are unusual antibodies such as bacteria and viruses that attack the healthy proteins of the cell. These are primarily found in patients whose immune system causes inflammation against its own body tissues. The antinuclear antibody test is used to evaluate for autoimmune diseases that can affect the tissues and organs of the body. Some of the symptoms related to autoimmune diseases are swelling, rashes, fatigue, and arthritis. Moreover, the antinuclear antibodies can damage muscles, skin, joints, and other parts of the body.
Major factors contributing to the growth of the global antinuclear antibody test market include the introduction of automation in the laboratory procedure and increasing prevalence of autoimmune diseases such as lupus and diabetes type-1 across the globe. Rising penetration of population towards health insurance is significantly fueling the market growth. Lack of regulatory policies for the approval of drugs and lack of skilled medical professionals hampers the manufacturing of test kits. The high cost of antinuclear antibody tests restrains its adoption in the middle-income groups. However, the increasing demand for advanced test kits and increase in healthcare expenditure in the emerging economies is expected to fuel the market growth in the near future.
