The global COVID-19 detection kits market size is valued at USD 3.28 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.05% from 2021 to 2027. Several nations are engaged in the development of kits and apps along with tracking programs for mass testing. The COVID-19 smartphone app established by Britain uses Bluetooth signals to identify COVID-19 affected individuals. This centralized approach also provides detailed data pertaining to the symptoms and risks of infection. Such initiatives accelerate the detection of infected patients, which further impacts revenue growth. Manual testing, pitfalls in read-out timing, and visual reporting lead to uncertain outcomes compared to automated tests. In regard to this, QIAGEN has developed an easy-to-use digital test, known as Access Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Total, in August 2020. This serology test is conducted on a portable digital device to offer reliable results in 10 minutes and mitigates such risks. The availability of smart testing solutions is expected to boost market growth in the near future.
