Global At-home Saliva Testing Kit Market Overview:
The demand for saliva-based home test kits is likely to expand at a healthy rate. With the rising number of infection cases, demand for these saliva-based home test kits has increased, with the goal of reducing the time it takes to detect infected people. These test kits differ from home-collection test kits, in which a sample is collected at home and delivered to a laboratory for a week's worth of results. The main advantages of using a saliva sample over a blood sample are its ease of collection, cost-effectiveness, safety, non-invasiveness, and user-friendliness, as well as the number of biomarkers such as genetic material and proteins contained in saliva.
