Growing inclination towards enzyme-linked immunosorbent (ELISA) and IgG/IgA testing mechanisms in zika virus testing due to its high accuracy and low turnaround time will promote the market growth, finds ESOMAR-certified consulting firm Future Market Insights in this study.

Major players in zika virus testing are looking forward to collaborate with leading research institutes and government agencies to boost the R&D of new testing methods.

Government initiatives to curb the virus’s spread have resulted in proliferation of awareness campaigns. These initiatives are accelerating the frequency of infection diagnostics and testing. This will boost the market growth.

For instance, in 2017, the New Mexico Department of Health (NMDOH) announced the launch of a summer campaign intended at educating pregnant women and their partners, who might be considering visiting places affected by Zika virus, about the risk of the virus and potential for transmission.

As zika virus epidemic subsided, the requirement for testing declined in response. Government also reduced their efforts on discovering new testing and treatment option for future use.

However, the COVID-19 pandemic reignited the growth prospects as the individuals are mandated to screen for any viral strain presence as a precautionary measure.

“Clinical studies have showed that zika virus infection during pregnancy leads to microcephaly and other severe fetal brain defects. Increasing laboratory testing for early detection of infection in women will boost the market growth,” opined a FMI analyst.

Key Takeaways

Commercialization of zika virus testing and administration of various regulatory approaches to assist active viral case load testing will boost the zika virus testing market in the U.S.
Brazil was the focal point of first zika virus epidemic outbreak. Government initiated a massive nationwide undertaking to demolish potential mosquito breeding sites and educate the public about their role in combating spread of the disease. These strategies created an ideal environment for market growth.
Administration of regular diagnostic tests to check for any virus and collaboration between various healthcare agencies to eradicate the zika virus drives the market growth in Puerto Rico.
The U.K. is anticipated to offer lucrative growth opportunities for zika virus testing market due to the implementation of strict government regulations regarding infection testing, two weeks prior to leaving the country.
High accuracy and reliability of ELISA zika virus test coupled with cost effectiveness and no use of radioisotopes will drive the market growth during the forecast period.

Prominent Drivers

Elevated demand for various serological tests in temperate regions due to rising tourism in tropical countries and increasing concern regarding epidemic outbreak will magnify the market growth.
Studies have confirmed the possibility of zika virus being passed on by a pregnant women to her fetus. This could result in severe fetal brain defects. Hence demand for zika virus testing is quite high among pregnant women, especially in affected places.

Key Restraints

Limited efficiency of zika virus testing in delivering accurate and fast results is restricting the market growth.
Restricted growth opportunities due to confinement of zika virus cases in tropical regions, hinders the market demand.
Increasing cross reactivity of zika virus with other more prevalent viruses like flavivirus and dengue decelerates the market growth.

Competitive Landscape

Time is of great essence while offering the proper diagnosis especially for zika virus. Key market leaders are working on utilizing advance testing methods to improve the turn-around time and rapid results.

Such approach assists physician to design accurate treatment for infected patients. Collaboration is necessary between research and testing institute and drug manufacturers for faster market expansion. Strategic collaborations also are identified as key strategies adopted by market players.

For instance:

EUROIMMUN US is a global leader in zika virus testing. It offers anti-zika virus test “ELISA” and indirect immunofluorescence test (IFA) formats, both permits the quick detection of specific antibodies (IgM and IgG) in the blood of those who may be infected.

EUROIMMUN US joined hands with Roche Diagnostics on optional agreement basis in 2017. The agreement allowed Roche Diagnostics to access intellectual property in zika virus immunodiagnostics assigned to EUROIMMUN.

Creative Diagnostics introduced zika virus testing called the Recombinant Zika Virus Envelope protein test which contains Histidine tags. The testing has purity score ranks above 85% and are available in 1 mg vials. Creative Diagnostics also provides the Recombinant Zika Virus NS1 protein test.

DiaSorin S.p.A. signed and agreed to acquire Luminex Corporation in 2021. As per the Luminex, this transaction will assist both companies to gain access to broader assay portfolios, developed research tools and expanded support services. This collaboration will also promote new partnerships in the biopharmaceutical, academic and clinical spaces.

Asian Hospital turns a social media ‘troll’ into a health awareness campaign

Asian Hospital turns a social media ‘troll’ into a health awareness campaign

MANILA, Philippines — What if a social media troll could actually help save lives?  This is the idea behind “Ate Rose,” the latest health awareness campaign of Asian Hospital and Medical Center aimed at educating the public about atherosclerosis, a condition that can lead to serious cardiovascular diseases.  Atherosclerosis happens when fatty deposits or plaque build up inside the arteries, restricting blood flow. Over time, it can contribute to heart attack, stroke and peripheral artery disease.  To make the condition more relatable and easier to remember, Asian Hospital created Ate Rose as a colorful and mischievous character who “trolls” social media users and personalities.  The campaign uses humor and social media interactions to draw attention to a serious health concern, while directing audiences to information about atherosclerosis and the importance of early detection.  Ate Rose has interacted with several online personalities, including Kuya Kim Atienza, Krizzia Luna, Markybap and Via Austria, creating conversations that eventually lead audiences to Asian Hospital’s website to learn more about the condition.  The campaign also goes beyond the digital space.  Ate Rose has been brought to schools, workplaces and barangays through on-ground caravans. She has also been featured alongside Yosi Kadiri, the well-known character associated with the Department of Health’s anti-smoking campaign, highlighting the role of smoking as one of the risk factors associated with atherosclerosis.  The hospital likewise incorporated cardiovascular health checks into activities such as the Run for Your Heart event organized by the Rockwell Run Club, where participants were given access to free blood pressure and BMI checks conducted by Asian Hospital staff.  Ate Rose also joined actress Amy Perez in an episode of the “Tyang Amy” podcast, together with Asian Hospital cardiologist Dr. Marc Louie Del Rosario, to discuss atherosclerosis, its risks and how the condition can be prevented or managed.  As part of its efforts to encourage early detection, Asian Hospital introduced the Ate Rose Card, which offers a package of check-ups and diagnostic procedures related to the detection of atherosclerosis, along with discounts on selected treatment procedures for qualified patients.  Through the campaign, Asian Hospital hopes that the public will not only remember the character of Ate Rose but also recognize the real health threat she represents.    Because while Ate Rose may be a fictional “troll,” atherosclerosis is real — and knowing the risks, getting checked and taking action early could make a difference.
