Whole genome amplification market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 7.3% during the forecast period (2024-2031). Whole genome amplification is the process of amplifying the entire genome from nanogram quantities of DNA to microgram quantities of amplified products. It has been used to amps up material from a single DNA cell and is an important tool for the preservation of small samples of DNA products. Numerous techniques, such as primer extension preamplification, multiple displacement amplification, and degenerate oligonucleotide PCR, have been developed for whole genome amplification.
Market Dynamics
Growing demand for research and development in genetic testing
One of the main factors driving market expansion is the increasing requirement for research and development in the fields of genetic testing, genomics, biological research, and molecular diagnostics. In January 2024, Sano Genetics, a software company accelerating precision medicine research raised $11.4 million in new funding, led by Plural with participation from existing investors including MMC Ventures, Episode 1 and Seedcamp. The growing funding for genetic testing startups is further aiding the research related to genetic testing.
Rising DNA multiplication technologies
The market is driven primarily by the rapidly growing array of improved DNA multiplication technologies. Due to the advances in technology related to loop-mediated amplification, a great deal of research has been done on advanced technologies and their alternatives, including Nucleic Acid Sequence Based Amplification (NASBA), Rolling Circle Amplification (RCA), and Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP). These methods are becoming more popular due to their benefits, which include facile multiplication from a single cell, fast amplification kinetics, and no need for costly heat cycles. These elements are anticipated to increase consumer demand for the goods sold in this market and, as a result, boost organic revenue growth.
Market Segmentation
Drug Discovery Holds Major Share Based on Application
The growing research on diseases including cancer and genetic disorders, increasing technological developments, and new drug discovery techniques implemented are key contributors to the high share of this market segment. For instance, in July 2021, Eli Lilly and Verge Genomics entered a partnership to research and create new drugs for treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). With this new partnership, Verge developed an all-in-human, artificial-intelligence (AI)-driven drug discovery and development platform to develop treatments for serious genetic diseases. This new platform is being used to advance them into clinical trials and markets.
Regional Outlook
The global whole genome amplification market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).

Global Whole Genome Amplification Market Growth by Region 2024-2031
North America Holds Major Market Share
The presence of robust biotechnology R&D infrastructure in the region along with the significant presence of numerous genetic research initiatives are key contributors to the high share of the regional market. Furthermore, a sizable portion of businesses involved in production and marketing of gene amplification solutions that are kits, reagents, and instruments have their headquarters in the US. This element also played a role in the region's high revenue generation. Apart from this, the growing geriatric population and the high healthcare expenditure of the regional population is further aiding the demand for regional market.
Market Players Outlook
*Note: Major Players Sorted in No Particular Order.
The major companies serving the global whole genome amplification market include GE Healthcare, Illumina, Inc., Agilent Technologies, Inc., Merck KGaA, and Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. among others. The market players are increasingly focusing on business expansion and product development by applying strategies such as collaborations, mergers and acquisitions among others to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in April 2021, Hologic acquired Mobidiag, an innovator in near-patient, acute care diagnostic testing, for approximately $795 million. With this acquisition, the company intends to expand its footprints in the diagnostic testing market.
