Lateral flow assays are rapid diagnostic tests used to detect the presence of a specific analyte in a sample. The assay consists of a lateral flow strip that contains reagents that react with the target analyte in the sample. A sample is applied to the strip and allowed to migrate along it. If the analyte is present in the sample, a colored line will appear indicating a positive result. If the analyte is not present, no line will appear indicating a negative result. Lateral flow assays are used for a variety of applications, including clinical diagnostics, food safety tests, and environmental tests.

Currently, lateral flow assays market is projected to reach USD 22.6 billion by 2027 from USD 20.5 billion in 2022, at a CAGR of 2.0% during the forecast period. Increasing adoption of kits & reagents and lateral flow assay readers for infectious diseases testing, veterinary diagnostics, and drug of abuse testing, cardiac marker testing. Whereas most of lateral flow assays are having limitation of qualitative detection, lot to lot variation like factors may hinder the growth of lateral flow assays market during the forecast period.
