MEA Biochips Market

MEA Biochips Market Size (2023 to 2028)

As per the report, the size of the Biochips Market in the Middle East and Africa is valued at USD 0.90 billion in 2023 and estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 17.80%, to reach USD 2.03 billion by 2028 during the forecast period.

A biochip is an assembly of miniaturized test sites organized on a compact substrate, allowing many tests to be executed simultaneously to reach higher throughput and speed.

Usually, the surface area of a biochip is no bigger than a fingernail. But, like a computer chip that can accomplish millions of mathematical tasks in one second, a biochip can implement thousands of biological responses, such as decoding genes, in the duration of a few seconds.

The growth of the Middle East and Africa Biochips Market is mainly driven by an increased application in cancer study, surge in the utilization of personalized medicine, and increased commercial uses of biochips. However, factors such as the availability of substitute technologies, low commercial suitability due to higher costs, and standardization concerns are restraining the market's growth in this region.
