Industry Background:
Dried Blood Spot (DBS) Collection Cards are used for newborn screening, therapeutic drug monitoring, antibody testing and nucleic acid testing for an extensive period of time. DBS provide an easy and inexpensive way to collect and store peripheral blood specimens from infants, children, and adults and are specifically important in low-resource settings where storing and shipping frozen plasma are difficult. The DBS collection cards can be stored at room temperature may be shipped under ambient conditions or on dry ice. Due to this ease of use and storage the demand for dried blood spot collection cards has increased in various disease testing applications. As per the sources, around 2.5 million babies died in the first month of life due to lack of proper screening in 2018. This has risen the need for infants screening and to prevent these deaths.This growth is primarily driven by Increasing Use of Dried Blood Spot Collection Cards in Diagnostic Testing and Use of Whatman 903 For HIV Load And HIV Drug Resistance (HIVDR) Testing.
The Diseases & Therapeutic Areas sector in the North America region has been increasing at a sustainable rate and further growth is expected to be witnessed over the forecast period, owing to the robust investments and expansion in production facilities in the region. Major Players, such as Shimadzu Scientific Instruments (Japan), Eastern Business Forms, Inc (United States), F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd (Switzerland), QIAGEN (Germany), Ahlstrom-Munksjö (Finland), PerkinElmer, Inc (United States), ARCHIMEDlife (Austria), Centogene N.V (Germany) and Pall Corporation (United States) etc have either set up their manufacturing facilities or are planning to start new provision in the dominated region in the upcoming years.
Key Developments in the Market:
On 26 July 2021, PerkinElmer reported that it is to acquire BioLegend, a leading, worldwide supplier of life science antibodies and reagents.
In June 2019, Ahlstrom together with GenTegra LLC introduced dried blood spot collection card named Ahlstrom-Munksjö GenSaver Card. This card provides superior protection for the storage of DNA in DBS for more than 20 years.
Regulatory Insights:
The U.S. Department of Transportation (Dot) and the United States Postal Service (USPS) consider DBS samples nonregulated, exempt materials.
