Research Insights on Glucose Biosensors Market Size and Forecast to 2024 | Hexa Research

The worldwide Glucose Biosensors Market size is expected to surpass USD 31 billion by 2024. It was valued about USD 15.3 billion in 2015. The high incidence of diabetes is a key factor that drives this market. Technological breakthroughs in monitoring glucose levels can spur market demand. Biosensors are devices that detect biological changes in the body and display those via electronic indicators. These changes (commonly known as analytes) could be gases, organic compounds, bacteria, and others.

Glucose biosensors can sense glucose levels within the body. They are small & minimally invasive devices that assess glucose levels in outpatient settings. Need for reliable biosensors still pose a market challenge. Alternative methods, like laboratory tests can restrict market growth. But several companies are investing in R&D (research and development) to improve the current technology.

The global Glucose Biosensors Market is segmented on the basis of types, end-users, and regions. The two types are amprometric and fluorescent. Amperometric biosensors are extensively available. They function by way of glucose oxidase. These devices combine glucose with oxygen to produce hydrogen peroxide. The electrode identifies hydrogen peroxide and accurately measures glucose levels from it.

Fluorescent biosensors are estimated to capture major market shares over the forecast period (2016-2024). These biosensors measure glucose levels by detecting sensitive proteins via the fluorescence process. Better operational life of these devices may benefit the market in the years ahead.

End-users are home care diagnostics, hospitals, and others. Others include diagnostic laboratories, research institutes, and clinical. Home care diagnostics held over 46% market shares in 2015. This segment comprises the adoption hand-held glucose meters. These devices deliver quick & efficient results and reduce the need for frequent hospital visits. ‘Hospitals’ may expand significantly over the next eight years. It could grow a 10.3% CAGR from 2015 to 2022.
