DNA Sequencing Becomes Easy with Molecular Biology Enzymes and Kits & Reagents

Molecular biology deals with the structure and function of biological phenomenon at the molecular level. It studies macromolecules using advanced tools and techniques. It requires a high purity substances and reagents to obtain accurate results.


Novel Developments

Molecular biology is used in cloning, life science research, diagnostic testing, restriction digestion, synthetic biology, drug discovery, and biotechnological research. Sequencing, epigenics, synthetic biology, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR), are some of the major applications of molecular biology enzymes and kits and reagents.

Epigenics and sequencing techniques are extensively used for cancer diagnosis and therapy. Synthetic biology is used for the development of biological products Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), also called molecular photocopying is a quick and cost-efficient technique used to amplify small segments of DNA. It includes, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), also referred as known as quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR).

Ultra-sensitive Detection Technique 

In June 2017, BIOTECON Diagnostics launched a new ‘lyophilized foodproof real-time PCR-test’. This test can find all kinds of species of Cronobacter within 24 hours. Cronobacter is a severe human pathogen with a high death rate. These organisms could pose a serious threat to the newborns as they are often found in infant food. The test kit has been authenticated with all appropriate food groups, including infant formulation such as skim milk powder, probiotics, and various environmental samples.

Market Overview

According to Grand View Research, Inc.; the worldwide molecular biology enzymes and kits & reagents market may attain over USD 26.7 billion by 2025. The growing biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry in developing countries can impel the growth over the forecast period (2014 to 2025).

Kits and reagents segment may continue dominating the overall market in terms of revenue over the forecast period owing to their low costs and frequent use in everyday procedures. The growth of synthetic biology is accredited to reduced cost of DNA sequencing and high demand for drugs, vaccines, and genetically modified biofuels.

North America held the major market share on account of revenue in 2016. Growing pharmaceutical industry in the US and intensifying research activities are the key regional drivers. Prominent players operating in the worldwide market include Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.; Illumina Inc.; Merck KGaA; New England Biolabs; and QIAGEN.
