Microfluidics Is Fastest Growing Segment Fueling The Growth Of Biochips Market

Market Overview:

Biochips are miniaturized devices containing microscopic spots of DNA, proteins, antibodies, or antigens that are designed to detect biological materials present in blood, urine or cell samples. They are used for disease diagnostics and forensics identification.

Market key trends:

One of the key trends in the biochips market is the increasing adoption of lab-on-a-chip technology. Lab-on-a-chip is a miniaturized device integrating one or several laboratory functions on a single integrated circuit or chip of just millimeters to a few square centimeters in size. It can perform several tests simultaneously, reducing the time, cost, equipment and sample required for various assays. The lab-on-chip technology has significant applications in DNA sequencing, point-of-care testing, drug discovery and life sciences research.
